The wood pops on the Rndsqr project there way more than I expected, looked more white in the renders.

Wow, those white townhomes with the wood roof peaks look terrible. It honestly looks like a bunch of shitty 1980's townhomes with cheap white siding decided to glue on some scrap wood from the library. Those windows.....what is with the racing fins?
Honestly, what is the point of those giant wood "roofs"? This is a classic example of trying too hard with a small budget (although I bet the wood peaks are not cheap to build).

I thought they were just renovated shit blocks from Dover at first.

Any time you see a townhouse with an element like the wood towers there, it's usually a stair used to provide access to the roof top, presumably for a patio. I just hope the wood there fades soon, it's too bright!

I really like the overall design of the row houses, but I'd have to agree that the siding kinda ruins the look. They really should have gone with a better exterior material.

Looks like a new infill going in at 56 Ave and 4A street SW in Windsor Park

Am I the only one that thinks that looks hideous? The panel with the wood.

New infill, they recently had the lot zoning changed... although I thought the discussion was that the lot size wouldn't allow so many units.

Pretty sure Park Hill has been fighting the hell out of that one, if it's the project I think it is...

I think your mixing up that development with the 4 lot development that applied for a land use re-designation that the development board recommended a rejection on in late Dec on 34Ave. I believe they pulled both their DP and land use redesignaiton applications as I don't see them on DMAP.
However, if I am mistaken, let me know!

Could be, I know it was right on Mission Rd and the community hated it because it was 5 storeys.
