Interesting! I scoured the internet and, unfortunately, there's zero info on this one as far as location, design etc.

I'd guess Kingsland based on the name and description, lots of multifamily being built there too

There is a Kingsview neighborhood in Airdrie, and there is a plot of land designated as multi-residential in that neighborhood, at the eastern edge of Kingsview Market. Could it be there?Does anyone know where Chartwell Retirement Residences Kingsview project is? According to this article, it is starting construction now:

Chartwell buys $315.2M of seniors residences, kicks off Calgary development
Chartwell Retirement Residences (CSH-UN-T) has agreements to acquire three Quebec properties comprising almost 950 suites for $315.2 million, and has commenced development of its Chartwell Kingsview Retirement Residence in Calgary.renx.ca
EDIT: never mind, upon reading the article again, it said the project is located in an affluent area of Calgary and I wouldn’t call Kingsview Heights in Airdrie affluent!

New playground is now open at Eau Claire Plaza... it's a climber's paradise. Also, they have added caps to the mister fountains for the winter to take advantage of the lighting features. Gives a cool appearance.

I'm also wondering if Kingsview could be the lot beside London? I do think you're correct though.
I was hoping it was the Chartwell Haysboro, but the unit totals are quite a bit different.
Looks like there will be a public hearing on December 16th.

Eau Claire Temporary Green Space

A better use than a parking lot for the former Eau Claire Mall site.

I wonder how temporary this will be. It definitely isn't a sure thing that this will need to be removed. Money well spent.Eau Claire Temporary Green Space

Until Festival season where they hand over the space to a corporation to install a party tent.

Community associations still have a greater understanding than developers under pressure to maximize investor contributions. The gaining traction across Canada to eliminate community engagement or even entire planning departments to expedite residential development scares me knowing what developers have been building. However, community engagement should be at the level of building a community growth master plan than individual proposals. The resulting master plan should have teeth whereas a developer can't propose something unexpectedly large that creates this animosity towards intensification.

Am I correct in understanding that this temporary sod area is only for the River Run Townhomes site? If so, an estimated cost of $750k for the project is pretty wild if they are just grading and adding loam/sod to City specs. like 2.5-3X what I would guess for the same scope (permitted that is the scope).

I do think there's more going on, it does mention tree removal. So I assume there's larger site prep happening here AND then they're adding some grass.
