I think that lot has an expansion of the continuing care centre planned for it, doesn't it?

That's correct. This project is going into one of the two lots to the east of Radius/Dominion
Bridgeland Riverside Continuing Care Centre | 18.59m | 5s | Province of Alberta | FWBA

I’m confused. Is the Riverside Care Center a new build or an expansion of what is currently there. Looking at the map renderings in your link and google earth, it appears there is already a building on that spot that this one is going on. Curious if they are demolishing the current building or expanding it. I also noticed that there would be one long vertical lot left immediately to the east of radius/dominion and to the west of this care center.

Not sure about the care centre but that long vertical lot you're referring to is planned for multi-family residential and is the final piece of land in The Bridges redevelopment. Not sure if it's still owned by the City of Calgary or has already been sold to a private developer. It's a bit of a shame there wasn't a bit more depth to that parcel as I don't know just how large of a multi-family building it could support unless there was a big relaxation on parking requirements.
The building in the google maps is gone now. They demolished it not too long ago, and the new facility was to start construction sometime around now or early summer. Not sure if that's been delayed now.

It is not going on those two parcels, that facility is replacing the existing one directly east of those two.

Ohhh I see. I thought it was an expansion. That's good at least. That building could use a redo.

unrelated but EAP is such a beauty. We were lucky those were built when they were.

It's so nice to see a crane in the commercial core again. This will probably be the last we see in that area for the next few years.

If Killam properties go ahead with their residential development on 5 Ave, then we will have another crane in the core

Is that the 5th and McLeod project? Or is there another?
