DP just submitted for "Copenhagen" on the site of the Danish Canadian Club in Beltline. Prepare to be underwhelmed:
Copenhagen | 35m | 10s | Copenhagen | Casola Koppe

I guess it's fine. I like that old block of butter on 11 Ave, but this is probably a better use of land in the Beltline.
I'm usually relaxed about design levels, but for this one being on 11th ave, I think it needs to be better.
Also, I can't tell for sure, but are those grass patches in the front?

It's a 10 floor filler development. I'm fine with it overall.

Pretty generic design- but I'm okay with it overall

Agreed. Hopefully they are asked to improve the design a bit. It's not a particularly coherent design.
So I don't believe there are any CRUs which means that there would be units at grade, so I'm not sure if those grass patches represent the boulevard between the sidewalk and road, or if they're showing an at-grade amenity area that will never get used.

Oooof. I don't think we'll be able to call this area of Calgary the design district any longer....

Peak "We have Copenhagen at home" energy.
@Albertasaurus If you have the deets handy (developer, architect, height, etc..) , I'll make a thread and project page.

Hey Surreal - architect is Casola Koppe. Developer is listed as "Copenhagen Group GP Ltd". Height is 10 storeys, appears to be approx. 35m.Total of 246 units, including 5 live-work units.
Thank you sir!

It’s not overly offensive but kind of boring for 11th Ave.

It's offensively mediocre, and will overwhelm all the cool little design stores on that strip. No thank you.
