Cidex got lucky to be given the grant with so little being done on the envelope. This will be the most profitable conversion to date

Definitely the most economically efficient conversion to date. Granted isn't the money a percentage of the cost. It isn't like it is a flat number for all conversions.

No. All groups get $75/sf of converted area

Right, that's how they're doing it. Maybe it is the demolition one that is a percentage. Best thing about living here is that your view isn't of this building.

^ Haha - so true.
I think Cidex just used up all their random leftover spandrel panels on this one.

If the economics of this gets us WVT III it was all worth it. If it gets us The Hat Elbow River, it wasn't worth it.^ Haha - so true.

All it would take is white paint on the brown concrete sections and this would improve significantly from a 1/10 to a 5/10.

Happy it’s an office conversion but good lord.
Some of the $75psf top up should’ve been for hiding this with trees from every angle

This one will test just how hot the Calgary rental market is haha
With construction materials potentially set to increase for the next 4 years or more, I wonder if we'll see a slowdown in new builds? If so projects finishing up now might do well on the rental market.

99% of Renters don’t care what the building looks like on the outside. Interior design, location, Amenities around it, Cost … etc are generally bigger selling features. I doubt many besides the Debbie Downers on this page will care about its Brutalliatic Exterior

Did you take a poll of renters or?
