They were putting a new banner on the fence on the lot at 4ave & Macleod SE this afternoon. It said pre-sales soon. The name was Highcliff at Riverfront. Guess with enough sales this one is going ahead
We're moving out of the building I'm in, and it's going at $12.00/sq ft It's suburban office space, in a decent building and decent location. Not sure what class it would be.Of course it varies. Must be a great location and great building to be getting lots of interest. Some form of taxes, insurance, maintenance is probably included.
Very true. This streetscape plan is long over-due, highlighting the major disconnect between the land use and transportation planning spheres. Both 33rd & 34th are ridiculous to walk along or cross, largely due to a 3 - 4x increase in density over the past 20 years (with accompanying traffic) and no investment at all in updating the transportation network to reflect that. Both streets have over a kilometre (14th to 20th Streets SW) between controlled intersections - on a slight hill, nonetheless - has created the perfect conditions for a continuous, high-speed stream of traffic in what is otherwise transitioning into a nice mid-density urban area. Huge potential to make it more walkable and a hell of a lot safer.I hope they can raise the height limits along those corridors, Marda Loop should be a truly urban neighbourhood in the near future.
I wonder if there will be any fireworks at any of the meetings? At any rate I'm glad to see the city doing this, it's a rapidly emerging area and public consultation never hurts.
I chose the same things on the survey. Traffic calming would be nice, and maybe a slower speed limit. 33rd is a busy avenue, it's a steady stream of traffic.Just completed the survey. Pedestrian comfort is an easy choice for the top priority, followed by related priorities such as traffic calming, lighting, and trees. The area could be improved greatly with a few minor fixes, potentially tacked onto any utilities work that the city might be planning.
That works for me. The issue I find is crossing 33rd unless you're right in the centre if the BRZ. I don't mind those little peninsulas that extend out and cut off the parking lane.Maybe not traffic calming, just more lights to allow easier cross flow of traffic and pedestrians. When I think of traffic calming I think of speed bumps and those stupid traffic circles on Royal Ave.
