seems like a more achievable project

 

[Surrealplaces]

A cross between Portofino and Oliver.

To me it looks like a cross between a few of the recent projects, and certainly has that generic look, but it will be a decent addition to the core.

 

[MissingMiddle]

More units in the core, rather inoffensive design, and has a decent ground treatment. I'm on board.

Also, interesting snippet from the report:

 

[adamyyc]

Pretty good overall.

 

[1875]

is calgary finally catching on its ok for condo towers to be simple in design?

 

[gsunnyg]

Not a big fan of the ground floor podium due to the tower slightly overhanging under the support of those large columns.Nothing human-scaled about it. Still, a great density booster for sure, and the tower itself looks respectable. Great to see more residential space downtown!

What a letdown
This is so blahhh.
They really gave-up on a much grander vision.
Hope it doesn’t proceed in this iteration.

 

[UrbanWarrior]

I’ll take it. More than good enough.

Just make it 70 meters taller please mmmk thanks

This got sent back for more work by CPC, looking to get a better interface with 5th Street.

 

[1875]

the same people that greenlighted the wvt podium?

 

[MichaelS]

I am not sure if there are currently any members on CPC who were around back when WVT got approved.

 

[1875]

i like that they may be more discerning

I've changed the name to 526 - 4th ave - the name of the address on the DP.

 

[FCC1982]

R.I.P. - Kings on 4th.

On second thought, don’t RIP, come back to life, please.

I've changed the name to 526 - 4th ave - the name of the address on the DP.

Might as well. I'm pretty sure it'll be a different name now. I quite liked the name Kings on 4th, but we'll see what the next name is.
