Urban Development and Proposals Discussion

The corner is filled in with a white mesh. This design will look either tired or dated or both faster than the 1980s design it's replacing. I wish they attempted to preserve more of the original than a full refresh to a trendy black mullion pattern. There's so many older office towers up for sale with each one advertising the conversion potential and, the 1980s, is dated.

Okay, that's where I thought it was. That's fine there, wasn't exactly begging for an apartment. At least Trico's development has a park nearby and is adjacent to other residential. I don't think this section of Macleod is where change needs to happen, it is too new in the sense that the strip malls have been reinforced. The section I think that has a chance is north of 50 Ave up to 34 Ave, this section is too tight to be a freeway like the the rest of Macleod which is what it is, a freeway.

Would be a shame if it was a sprawling campus of garages. It's a five storey building. Having it close to transit is a convenience for those that don't own cars. Transit simply as a means to commute from a future residential development here to downtown is underutilization of all the possibilities rail can do.

I've moved several times entirely by transit as a poor student.
