I believe that it's going to be a No Frills. Loblaws was also eyeing the retail space at the new building on the corner of 10th ave and 14th street, but they didn't sign the lease.

Wondering if they were considering a Shopper's for the 10th Ave location. Have to figure Loblaws is eyeing putting one somewhere in the west part of the downtown area with all the density.

Good to hear that the ground level got a major tenant to finally get something in place there. Still hoping the second level could have a big gym like Evolve Strength to take advantage of the bunker appropriately.

I wonder if they’ll bring back the CityMarket brand. They had one in Sage Hill which became a T&T. They’ve been opening them in central locations in Vancouver and Edmonton. Similar to a Coop, Safeway, Loblaws in Ontario and more expensive than Superstore and No Frills.

Give me T&T baby. Probably not, but would be the only redeeming characteristic of this horrible podium

I remember the original Arris renders had a CityMarket rather than Superstore

Curious if they wanted to put a city market then didn’t because of the surrounding area and how the problem has worsened

I second that! A T&T in the downtown area would be awesome, and much more convenient for inner city-ish people like myself than having to drive to the burbs.

I think the University District, Northland Village or Brentwood would probably be much more viable for a new T&T location.

A smaller T&T location similar to the one in Vancouver's Chinatown could probably work well downtown. I noticed that there are a lot of elderly Chinatown residents who go to the EV Superstore location for their groceries.

 

[UrbanWarrior]

Can’t say I’m mad about a No Frills opening up within walking distance. Groceries are far too expensive. Anything less helps.

There needs to be a T&T in the South. I don’t know why they’re hasn’t been one in SETON, Shawnessy or Township. There are enough up North.

 

[CBBarnett]

Do we have any real info about this speculation? Any opening dates or insider knowledge?

Perhaps I missed it - but I don’t recall any real details on this grocery store possibility?

For those guessing that West Village Tower three will be the next high-rise, it’s still idle. For those hoping not to see another West Village Tower, go up, it’s still idle.

WHEN THEY COULD START IT? THIS LOOKS SO UGLY FOR THIS CITY

I’m hoping they do the third tower. The damage has already been done with the podium on the first two towers so why not at a third tower and an extra 300 residential units in the core.
My beef is only with the podium anyways, IMO the towers are fine.
