Maybe we'll see some more renderings as time goes on, but so far it looks okay. It's got that generic look going, but it's not offensive.

This is from Western securities, same developer as Underwood. I have some faith this will be decent because of that.

It'll be solid. most likely a generic look similar to Oliver or Union Square etc... but solid.

Looked through the Architectural Plans and i really like it. The materials and glazing look good, the window wall systems look nice and have a lot of glazing and real attention was paid to the podium and streetscape. I'm also happy it is a lighter colour pallet for the tower portion instead of the black and charcoal thats seems to be on everything lately except for 11+11 by Intergulf. At-grade has nice, permanent feeling materials (Concrete and brick) and lots of glazing/transparency. Retaining the Reds building was a big win, and I am looking forward to the two murals (probably by BUMP) they have planned for building. I'm hopeful on this one and so far am impressed.

A construction tender has just been released. According to the information it is 270 residential units, 28 stories tall with 4 levels of parkade. Excavation starting next quarter with targeted completion is Q3-4 2024.

On the DP it shows 28 floors of residential units, with one extra floor on top, maybe for social space? Looks like maybe an outdoor terrace, which would be hella cool.

New Business and Investment announcements almost every business day of the week! With barely any related to Oil and Gas. Developers don't want to miss out.

dont mind seeing the slightly shorter tower. ill take three 27 story towers or four 20 story towers over two 40 story towers at this point.

Likley that rental projects (assuming this is not condo) are less risky when the inflation and interest rate outlooks are so uncertain.What the hell is gong on? We're not Detroit, that's what's going on.

At only 29 floors, the floor to ceiling heights of this building are going to be pretty enormous, at an average of nearly 4 meters.
