Wow. Is that a ground oriented pedestrian retail building without a random step-up from the sidewalk? The lay-by lane pictured is unfortunate, but would be a great addition to the street!

On the lay-by, now that all commercial uses have no parking requirements, shouldn't this be an optional addition?

Can't find any issues with this one from this perch. I appreciate the restraint of not falling into the angled corner entry door trap most weak architects fall into.

Solid boutique building. A win for that stretch of 17th which is starting to build up.

Checks off the boxes. I’d be quite happy if a few hundred of these were built around the city.

Materials will make all this difference on this building. Hopefully the grey coloured areas are brick and the white areas are not hardie. The ground floor is well done and looks to have a nice amount of glazing.

The white is most definitely hardie board, and I'd put money that the grey area is not brick. More likely stucco or just more hardie.

If that ends up being the case, then not a few hundred of these please. I'd much rather see some taller buildings with better quality execution.

In keeping with the momentum of Shaganappi/Westbrook mentioned in the Urban Development thread, I noticed the site for this project has now been cleared and fenced off. No BP yet by the looks of things on the city's "my property" map though.

This, Beacon, and West 17 coming together to give some momentum to that part of 17th ave.
