It'll matter at least as much where those units end up being located as the breakdown of type. 1,500 apartments a year - but if 1,000+ are on the deep fringes, locked away from transit, active transportation or walkable corridors it's a lot of potential left idle.

7300 rental units under construction. I'm dying
Probably 5500 of those in the core areas (Downtown, Beltline, Mission, Bridgeland, Inglewood, Kensington, Sunalta).

Does anyone have an update on the units under-construction tally we had going on a while back?

Does anyone know the status of this project? My wife says there's a new farmers market in Greenwich, I'm guessing it's this one?

Well, the Farmers Market will be in Greenwich, but the are still building it. I am not sure what stage construction is at, but definitely not much of a structure based on the last time I drove by on the trans canada (few weeks ago now).

Took a stroll by Flyover Park tonight. Apologies for the crappy cell phone pics but I was pleasantly surprised to see how large the site actually is and how elaborate the play equipment is going to be. I think this will become a unique hidden gem in Calgary.

Drove past the new farmers market earlier and saw some activity. As far as I can tell it looks like their piling and pouring the foundation.
