Urban Multi-Family Construction Count Tracker

Hudson Condos is missing from the list.

Seems like things have gone down a bit since the October count. Need a few more towers to get going

Interest rate hikes have slowed things down, but with Calgary's population growth going strong the vacancy rate dropping we should see some more projects starting up. Anyone have a guess on what might start next?

Most people seem to be betting that Gallery will be the next major project to start.

Hudson Condos is missing from the list.

It's on the list as 1600 block.

I am hoping the center of East Village is next. There is pressure mounting to get back on track.

According to that article, they're saying they only expect the two riverfront parcels to get any action in 2023? I thought that the Q parcels were expected to start this quarter?

I thought so too. That is too bad honestly. Hopefully we hear more news out of EV in 2023 though

Oh yes, I forgot that was the old name.

That makes sense, especially if it’s already sold out.
The most logical project to start would be a second tower of any existing 2 tower development, but all of them have the second tower currently under construction. Maybe the second Sunalta tower is another one that couple go ahead?

It has sales momentum for sure but didn't they just submit a development permit application? The hurdle after that is the building permit. This may not be a 'slam dunk'.

The one I can't understand is Park Point phase 2, the development permit was approved in May 2022 and they moved pretty quickly to demo the sales centre, get fencing up and a consturction trailer on site by lateJune and then nothing has changed since then.

 

[Surrealplaces]

There are a few that already have a submitted and approved DP, just waiting in pending release mode.
526 4th
1405 4th
Sovereign (not on DMAP, but I believe this one was approved a few years back)
1216 8th (not on DMAP, but I believe this one was also approved a few years back)
It's possible one of those may start up this year.

My money’s on the second Sunalta tower starting up.

 

[MichaelS]

Don't forget The Broward, which also has an approved DP. Not a tower, but a significant downtown project none the less. According to the post by @MoDA in that thread, they hope to start construction in Spring 2023. Not sure if that is still the case.

The One Properties proposal (east half of Q) was just announced like a month ago. We don’t even know what it’s gonna look like yet. Though I expect we’ll see the design soon and it could go ahead by the end of the year definitely not this quarter though. Either way, getting Vita and EV606 going will still be huge. More commercial on the riverfront!
