This is Calgary. Not midtown Toronto.

Just curious if anyone has an update as to what is going on with the Stephen Ave side of the old Scotia Centre building? I was excited when I saw the renderings for Slate's redevelopment. If I recall correctly they said they were beginning construction in early 2019 but months have now gone by and no work has begun. Is this project still going ahead?
In all fairness this section of riverfront is not and will not be a destination area ever.Your assessment is incorrect. It would permanently destroy 100 meters of riverfront property with substandard design and abysmal retail integration. I can't even begin to understand how you could characterize it as "awesome."

Yes. It will extend on the other side of the river where the current asphalt pathway is. I agree with previous comments. Public access to the river on the side where Cidex is building, is not necessary. Anyway, the renderings show some green space so it won't be a total monolith.Isn't the city's long term plan to extend Riverwalk down the Elbow Lindsay Park?

2 restaurants and a bunch of CRU space. How many dry cleaners can 1400 units support? Doesn't seem like a place for destination retail. I could see a quick pivot to a hotel maybe for one of the towers.If the restaurant space that goes into Hat @ Elbow (stupid damn name) is succesful, then it could probably help activate both sides of the river...
If you are referring to the riverwalk extension. I believe CMLC released these plans a while ago. Might be on their website.Where would one find out more about this plan?
