Someone mentioned in another thread that it was labour shortage, but I’m betting it’s also materials shortage. The modern 5/1 that we see in Calgary is being built everywhere in NA and Europe, and many are using these same materials.

For this specific building, could also be whatever they need to do the mesh, assuming that’s still in the plans.

Mural going up on the east side of the building which is a nice touch

Oooh, it's Nasarimba. They do good work.

Great spot for a mural!

On walls like this, and where there are other murals, there use to be advertising; when I say this I think of old warehouse brick buildings with painted advertising. It's interesting that murals have taken their place, both for BUMP and this one which seems to be building owner commissioned.

Amazing progress...

The "Daycare opening soon" sign seems to indicate we will not be getting a brewpub with a patio out onto the adjacent park, as the initial vision first had

To be fair, daycares are a close second to brewpubs in importance to being a functional, healthy neighbourhood. You literally cannot have too many of either

Should be a dual use. Daycares close around 5:30. Right when a pub should open. The kids could even be put to work during the day brewing.

Think this project is just like every other similar one in the city. There is either a shortage of exterior materials or labour. Most sit waiting as well.

Workers!!

The murals are starting to get played out. A big giant LED billboard on the side would've done wonders with proper advertisements (not Realtors). Given the backup on the 5th ave flyover during traffic time, it would've been a prime spot. Plus, billboards can add vibrance during nighttime.
