General Construction Updates

People aren't going to go to Balzac for a chinese dollar store/Walmart. TBH it was stupid to build a concept like this in the middle of nowhere without anything tangible to draw people in. Would've been fine if they actually built it in Calgary i think, especially if it was transit accessible.

Would have loved to see this mall (maybe a bit smaller) on 17 Ave SE at 52 ST
 
Penn west bridge from above:
177889
 
Can’t remember what was going to be built on the SW corner of 5st/4av SW. There is fencing around the site with a ITC banner on the fence. There was a truck and trailer in there this afternoon doing some sort of work

Yup, new Marriott, name 'The Dorian'

The Dorian | 98.45m | 27s | PBA Land Development | Gibbs Gage

Development permit for 304 suite hotel was submitted a while back and is now slated for council. Planning commission has recommended approval. Sources say that once approved a building permit will be applied for.

Yeah we've been waiting for that one to go ahead for a while now. Sounds like it's about to go ahead finally :D

Nope, Dorian is on 5th Ave, not 4th Ave. I assume he means this parcel, the SW corner of 5th Street and 4th Ave SW:

No DP has been applied for yet, but Killam REIT has plans for a three tower apartment complex:

Ah yes, I didn't look at the address closely. I saw ITC, and I noticed fencing around the Dorian parcel now says ITC, I assumed that's what he meant.
 
Inquiry post. We were driving down 17ave SW yesterday and big truck passed us going WB. It was hauling a huge yellow drill. Any new construction starting off of 17th?
 
I don't know about 17th, but there's a nice new little project on 19 Street NW on the block between Savoy and Dairy Lane. Looks quite nice in the render, didn't manage to get a shot though.

That's 19+2 and I really like it. Could really help to make 19 St a bit more of a retail strip.
