Cleaned up and sod usually indicates a pretty quiet site for the foreseeable future...

If that's the case and they could work out a way to put up a few picnic tables or something that would be killer.

Well if they take the fence away the land will start being used eventually. Some picnic tables, a few concrete planters with some trees in them.

Simple & beneficial in theory, but lawyers & bureaucracy ruin everything...

Wheaton/One has cleaned up and put down some sod on the empty lot directly east of the new southpark building. Still fenced off, so I'm not sure if it's just to make it look a bit nicer, or if there's something a bit more exciting to come.

Yeah, I noticed that too. It does actually look much nicer.

I was wondering whether this was something they were required to do, if it was to help make the area look better to help them fill their new building across the street or some other reason.

Fort Crossing's pharmacy/medical clinic now has a sign, business hours, and a phone number.

Not sure this is news or not but the property is listed on realtor.ca.

It sort of looks like the proposed building in Inglewood that the community fought against. I could be remembering it wrong. I don’t remember this ever being proposed or built. Do you remember what intersection?

Also @westcoastjos can your reinstate the evaluation system for proposed projects -- I like to see where people land on the aesthetics continuum.

Is that not still enabled on the threads here? I opened a few and still see the poll. I'm not sure how Dave enabled that or if we just did it post by post. I haven't dived into all the configs quite yet.

Noticed tree clearing behind the Rossdale Brewery (below - pictured today). I know a few years ago Gene Dub talked about developing it into a boutique hotel. Has anyone heard any rumblings about this property?

Some rumblings as of November 2020 about the Rossdale Brewery:

And in January of this year a cancelled application:

3 X the size of the one off of 41ave in Leduc and that one in particular cost $120M - so if one extrapolates the data - one could assume this one to be $360M +/-
