Theoretically if it actually is one, I would assume it would be a new Esso/7-11 combo to replace both of those gas stations on the west side of the intersection. Those are pretty dated and must be due to either be closed permanently, or refurbished I imagine. If that starts up the timeline to possibly have those sites develop into a mid rise in the future, I'm with it.

Slap an "!ndigo" on the front of this, and it looks like any other suburban big box store. I don't know why I was expecting somethign else.

It's supposed to look like Greenwich Village in NYC, so that will translate to cheap brick and car oriented developments haha.

I like the look of these metal panels on buildings, but considering modern day technology, can they not stop the panels from warping?

They can, but developers are cheap and will go with the thinnest panel they can get away with.

Yeah, too nice for Macleod Trail lol. Some love for Macleod Trail can’t hurt, but it does feel like a lost cause.

Using the streetview time machine, it looks like the site has been for sale since at least 2015 (or, someone bought it and is flipping it?):

Add a 150ft setback w/ a parking lot and ~$5M of value engineering, it'll fit right in.
