I'm wondering if that's what it is. The signage didn't show the rendering, so I thought it might be something else. Would be nice if it was going ahead.

Is it not this?

Here is the latest city file on the matter... https://pub-calgary.escribemeetings.com/filestream.ashx?DocumentId=122149

The work starts with the house being moved from the centre to the southeast corner of the site. We prob won't know if development will progress until that's at least well underway.

they've removed the garage and have been prepping to move the house for a couple weeks. Looks like they might be working on a new foundation for the house as well.

This project was mentioned in the general Urban Development thread when the DP was applied for, but now that it is going to CPC next wee, I figure I would make a thread for it. CPC Report: https://pub-calgary.escribemeetings.com/filestream.ashx?DocumentId=122149 DP Drawings...

So freaking cool.

I can't believe this is actually happening

Overall a very cool project. I know some people weren't happy with the house being moved as it loses some of its heritage status by not being on the original location, but it's also nice to see the house front and centre and not hidden in the back.

 

[Surrealplaces]

Lots of progress happening on this one. They are planning to move the house sometime around mid to late April.

That's quite a challenging site to work on.
