A carpenter that can't find work right now? That's sus.
Interesting that this has surfaced again. I thought it was long dead. It has a new title now as the address is slightly different than the one on the previous permit, but overall still looks to be the same proposal.

I thought there was already a DP for that site...
Hope Bradley there doesn't get too many crank calls lol

Yeah, it's anew DP, but looks to be the same proposal, just a few minor tweaks. Increased number of units, seem to be the only thing that's changed.

Hopefully it’s a go, that lot needs to go ASAP

I've enjoyed the cheap parking and medium sized trees in that lot before, but yeah, needs to be developed.

Any chance we're still getting a post-secondary school on that block?

A real school? or a diploma mill college? Should ask West end residents how much they love having the "CityU of Canada in Calgary" in their neighborhood.

With UofC taking Nexen, it definitely won't be them...

Primaris REIT Puts 32-Acre Northland Village Mall In Calgary On The Market
Northland Village is located at 5111 Northland Drive NW and 4600 Crowchild Trail NW in Calgary and was just listed for sale by TD Cornerstone and RBC Capital Markets.
storeys.com
Northland being sold after most of the redevelopment is complete.
Looks like LOC2025-0133 has been submitted for The Harriet on Riley Park.
For some reason I thought they were going for 16 floors at that site. 12 is a good number though, it shouldn't overshadow the park in the summer.

2 big LOCs coming very close to decision in east Crescent Heights / west Bridgeland.
80m tower along 4 St NE just north of Era going to Public Hearing (and final decision) next Tues, Sept 9. https://dmap.calgary.ca/?p=LOC2024-0166
Both the Crescent Heights and Bridgeland Riverside Community Association Planning Committees oppose it, is asking to keep the max height capped at 50m. CH asking for a detailed market analysis study, adherence to an LAP that doesn't include the site, and requirement for below-market housing. Claims the density and new CRUs will hurt retail vacancy in the area. BR claims development will encourage "transience" and "social disorder".
Bridgeland-Riverside CA as a whole seems ambivalent, wrote a longer letter asking mostly that the development work to preserve and celebrate the historic significance of the street as a 'Little Italy' sort of area - but also explicitly asking for adequate parking for a TOD site.
CPC approved it but quite lukewarmly, could go either way at Council depending on the Hearing.
Docs available here: https://pub-calgary.escribemeetings...a=Agenda&lang=English&Item=39&Tab=attachments
Phase 2 of the same project going to CPC October 2nd, and Public Hearing either last-second, or next Council. Just to the south and west of Phase 1, also max 80m tower along the north side of 1 Ave, and 50m on the south. https://dmap.calgary.ca/?p=LOC2024-0221__

Claiming that development will encourage "transience" and "social disorder" is one of the dumbest arguments I have ever heard. Good news is, even though it's an election year, most of the current Council (including the area Councillor) aren't running again, so hopefully it will pass.
Edit: Never mind, I just saw that it's Ward 7 rather than Ward 9. Crap.
