No DPs have been submitted yet, it’s still the sale centre for University District. It’ll probably be the last lot to get developed.

I would be choked at a building like this built on a main street like university Avenue but with the retail CRUs it gets a pass. Not a passing grade, but a pass.

Much improved over the first concept.

This is not getting built on University Avenue.
The CRUs will be fronting Children's Way, an unexpected but welcome extension of the current retail zone.

Perfect, even better.

Site 1 there is what I'm asking about. Glad the storage centre isn't on the main drag!

"Harrison Street and its partner Gracorp Properties are launching the development of a 645-unit student and working professional housing project in Calgary’s University District, its third investment in the neighbourhood.
Named Block 22, ground has just been broken at the site and completion of the 12-storey building is scheduled for August 2027, in time for the start of the 2027-28 academic year.
Harrison Street, which is based in Chicago, is partnering for a second time in the city with Vancouver-based developer Gracorp, with which it has already collaborated for the 440-bed Encore project in the University District."

Just got back from Atlanta and UD reminds me of the Midtown area and hopefully like the Atlantic Station area. What a great development.

U/D has turned out far better than I imagined it would.

That says Perraton and McLaurin, hopefully it's the SE corner of that intersection. Would love to see the 2 lots directly south of the Save On built soon, but they seem a bit small for this building.

It actually is going to be on the lots south of Save On. It's not very obvious in the renders, but the building is going to span the road between the two current parking lots.

I was wondering if they were going to close that road to the parkade, I guess not.

The next phase of the demolition of Varsity Courts looks to be mostly complete.
