Urban Development and Proposals Discussion

Looks like Anthem United is working on a residential development that will include a mix of single-family homes, townhouses, and apartments on the former Viscount Bennett Centre site (2519 Richmond Road SW). Pretty limited details to this point.

Viscount Bennett Redevelopment Update

Anthem has let their conditions lapse. The site is back up for sale. Note: Photo of Viscount Bennett is from movie filming in 2019.

Thank goodness someone's doing something with that site.

Nice to see something in the works for that location.
It’s a shame Richmond Rd doesn’t continue on over/under Crowchild. It’d be a great place for a bike lane that gets you down into the core area.

Agreed - such an eyesore the state it is in.

What is the small project directly north of this one again, that is under construction? Looks to also be another one north of that, fronting 26th Ave, in the works, as there is a land use redesignation submitted for M-U1.

When they opened Poppy Plaza they were proposing a restaurant in this space. I couldn’t imagine a better use, pleeease let this happen.

hopefully they allow a huge patio

With a brewpub going in across the street, this could be a big change to an already vibrant area!

No details are provided and I can't find anything on it. There are 3 houses currently on this site.

MODA just posted these pics on their Instagram stories. I believe this is for the N site in East Village, which is east of the new M2 building.

Looks really cool, therefore I don't expect it to see the light of day lol.
