Pretty useless mall, nobody will be disappointed. Interested to see the proposal.

This is going to be a long haul, but not like a 50 year construction region is much different than what’s there.

I read that the land use application was approved but it was noted that there is no LRT station planned for that area, which might make residential development less attractive. Apparently adding a station to an existing line costs $100 million.

I think you definitely need a concrete time frame on the LRT station to get more sales in the development (quick University access). On the plus side there should be practically no opposition to this regarding heights and density, it's surrounded by large roads and no residential near it at all.

Now the city can look at cost benefits of doing the station, who it serves, and lay out a price for what would be fair to charge the developer for it. $100 million seems rather high - though that might include extra LRVs, land acquisition, etc

$100mm for a new lrt station to service an inner city brownfield development seems like much better investment than a new overpass on 212th ave

This is the Remington proposal for Dalhousie? Haven't seen it before here.
"A perfect spot for a Transit Oriented Development (TOD), it is being built adjacent to the Dalhousie LRT station, across the parking lot from the Dalhousie Shopping Centre, anchored by a Safeway store, and walking distance to the east to the Calgary Co-op grocery and liquor store and Canadian Tire."

New to me. Looks decent enough, certainly a reasonable scale for the location.

Thanks for posting the renderings.
This project has been rumoured for the last several years. It's a proposed food hall. Would be surprised to see it get going anytime soon though.

Remington must have bought the project off of Birchwood Properties, as we have seen this before. It was called "the Dells":

Land use was approved and a DP was recently submitted. New renderings out showing the proposed towers near Dalhousie Station *updated renderings. Here is the site in question. Right nearby the Dalhousie LRT Station.

I think this was Bronconnier's food court proposal.

That's right. Birchwood sold it off. Did not know until now that it was to Remington. 946 units would probably equate to their entire production in Quarry Park, or more.Remington must have bought the project off of Birchwood Properties, as we have seen this before. It was called "the Dells":
