As of now, excavation is planned somewhere around September of this year. It's not the most concrete info, but that's the best I've gathered. They're digging down 7 stories. Deep hole. Also, they've begun work on the powerlines. My assumption is they're removing the power poles in the alleyway.

Does Calgary actually have any streets where people can go clothes shopping? Or are you always forced to go to the mall? In other cities, there are entire neighbourhoods that draw people to go clothes shopping.

I think there's still 2 or 3 empty CRU's in this building, so a food establishment is still a possibility?

There are four CRUs, and they are actually targeting Tap Rooms, Breweries, Coffee Shops, etc. according to their website.

I think it's just 1 CRU left. Can't tell yet how many CRU's they're taking up for the boutique store. In Tower 2 there will more but that's at least 3 years away from being complete.

Damn yall, why the cat fighting?I personally think Calgary needs more boutique stores and I don't mind spending $80 on a shirt if the quality is good (plus I'm not even a high roller). Better than that h&m crap that lasts 2 washes. Let's just be happy we're getting some unique retail, even if it's for women only.

I actually thought it would have been occupied by some medical specialists or private practitioners being that close to the hospital.

Getting us back on track, just noticed this graphic when reading about the upcoming Greater Downtown Plan. It shows an amenity level on the 40th floor along with a similar sized amenity area as the current tower on the phase 2 podium. Very nice!

Calgary's Greater Downtown Plan saw only housekeeping amendments as changes at the committee level, and will go to city council on April 26.

probably get banned for saying this but women with shopping endorphines isnt the worst thing to have in your lobby.

It's not a Subway, Shoppers, Bank or Medical clinic. It's a win.

Well, the rumoured tower for 12th is Park Central. I’ve been told the tower going ahead is the second tower of a two tower project, leaving only Park Central, unless I’m missing something.

 

[Chinook Arch]

Disappointing it's not one of the other 11th ave projects, but also good to hear about the Phase II. It'll be a good addition to the area.

 

[MichaelS]

Well, we could always hold out hope it is the second qualex landmark one just a block east, Park Point I think they are called?

I'd rather Park Central II, at 134 meters and over 500 residences, than Park Point North, at only 84 meters and ~200 residences.
