The city of Calgary quietly dropped an update in December, still no renders.
"
Several streams of work are progressing concurrently to ensure a timely delivery of the Event Centre Block. The project team alongside the design consultants have begun the design phase of the event centre, community rink, and surrounding public plazas. This work is in its early stages and will take several months to complete.
The project team is also working to finalize a construction schedule in the coming months that will highlight when major milestones might occur, such as development permit applications, design reveal, and ground-breaking. While the schedule is still being finalized and subject to change, we expect to share the design and break ground in 2024.
We are also gearing up to conduct enabling works in the New Year to prepare the site for construction. This will include utility relocations, reconfiguration of 5 Street S.E., and site clean-up.
As previously committed, we intend on sharing the definitive agreements once all parties are ready to have them publicly available. As with all business agreements, the documents need to be reviewed first for proprietary and financially sensitive details before they can be released in early 2024. This process is well underway; however, it is expected to take a few more weeks."
