Irony of the day, the Centre 10 was done up as residential and failed. It turned office, if Place 10 fails as office and turns residential then it would be uncanny.

That would be awesome. I'd love to see a wide, thin residential building go up in Calgary! Another block along the tracks covered up

Wide and thin? You don't mean like this, do you?

Haha ugh! I knew someone would bring up Vantage Pointe! No, I mean like a really urban dense design, sorta along the lines of the Scotiabank Theatre building (I forget its real name) in Vancouver...

I hope not. I always found this Vancouver development ugly as sin.

I'd count on a version of this

That would also be fine

2 cranes working on this site today, not sure what they’re up to though. Something down in the hole.

 

[UrbanWarrior]

Checked the Centron website, no updates there.

 

[Mountain Man]

Probably just making sure the sumps and what not are working properly, possibly winter-proofing the site as well. I don't expect to see anything happening on this one for quite some time, not unless they change it to residential or something.

 

[UrbanWarrior]

That's why I checked their site, cause I was hoping it was being switched to rental residential.

 

[Surrealplaces]

IIRC they submitted a permit to change the project to residential. I can't find anything on the city's planning pages, but I'm pretty sure I remember seeing something about it a while back.

Activity at the idle construction site on 10th ave (Place 10 I think it was called)

 

[Rollerstud98]

Saw an excavator down in there last week too.

 

[Surrealplaces]

I wonder what those guys are doing? I may be wrong, but I thought they submitted a permit to the city to change the project to residential...if so, maybe they are doing both sides at once?

*starry eyed* Pleeeeeeease let this be true!

Nothing on the City's development map for a new permit. And Centron's website still lists Place 10 as "for lease"
