My only problem with peach stucco is that peach stucco houses probably contain poly B plumbing.

I lived in this buidling when I was fresh out of college, had my first big boy job, a bit of cash in my pocket and zero responsibilities. Great location for that phase of my life.
My unit opened up onto the middle courtyard area, where there was a blocked off maintenance access ladder that went up onto the east roof. Being young and somewhat athletic young men, my buddies and I would climb the ladder (despite it being covered by a metal plate) with a case of beer on a warm summer evering and sit above the Julios patio, chatting to the patrons down below. We even convinced one of the servers to pass us up a plate of nachos once, the manager must have been confused that a to-go order was being taken out to the patio

Lived down the street from this for over a decade and had no idea there was a middle courtyard area. That's very disguised!I lived in this buidling when I was fresh out of college, had my first big boy job, a bit of cash in my pocket and zero responsibilities.

It kinda sucked to be honest, I dont think it sees the sun at any time of the year.
The units in that north west section of the buidling are all 2 level "townhomes" that either face Kensington Rd, 10A St. or the courtyard

Not sure if this has been mentioned yet or not but was watching the Flames game tonight on Sportsnet and there was an add for The Kenten that featured a banner saying it is 50% sold and that construction begins in June.
Just build it

I suppose if they’re going to do this, it’ll be nice if they get it done. Even with how fast Calgary has been growing, the condo market is still sluggish for the most part, so fingers crossed.

Curious what that 50% represents in value, I'd think the 1-1.5m ones are mostly sold, but not the giant 5-10m units. There's demand for premium condos in the 1-2m range for downsizers in the UD, West District, Mahogany (by the lakes) and probably other areas. However, some of these units are priced more than a Mount Royal mansion...
