Yep, 2017 is shaping up to be a fun year of construction starts for us. I'm hoping BLK60 and Village can both get going as well.
There is some great architecture coming to town with projects designed by starchitects (Telus Sky, Central Library, the Peace bridge, The Bow), but it's great to see we have locals that can do great stuff alsoWell it's great for our city that a forum like this exists for people to discuss and appreciate design. There's a lot of really great architecture being produced in Calgary right now and it's only going to make this a better place to be!
Hi guys,
Just happened to stop by here today so I thought I'd give an update at least on the projects that we're currently working on:
BLK60 - This one has an approved DP and the developer is waiting for the economy to bounce back a little before proceeding to the Building Permit stage
BV20 - This one is in for BP and is on budget. Construction will be starting in the spring
Village - Currently in for DP and concurrent land use re-designation. We're hopeful that this will break ground in late 2017
Block on 4th - This was a very high level (and under-developed) concept sketch we did for the land owner and it hasn't moved beyond this early stage. I think he's testing the market
Hive - This one is currently in for DP and we expect approval by the end of the month. Construction will begin this spring
As a teaser, we're also working on new concepts for Railyard Brewing, a refurbishment of the two commercial towers of McLeod Place, and a 19 unit multifamily project in Lower Mount Royal.
Finally, our Tin Box project in Canmore has been completed for a few months and I'd say it turned out pretty well!
I'm 99.9% sure you're right.
