From Today.

A bit off-topic, but that pic demonstrates the large number of parking lots near MacEwan. I'm especially looking at the old Wonder Harbour space and the huge parking lots west of 109 St.

There are a few proposals on some of those vacant lands and parking lots but yes, much more could be happening now, especially with Macewan's short term growth plans.

Have they fixed that ridiculous bike lane design on 5th Ave yet? I can't tell from the photo.

I had liked the original MacEwan design where there was grass in front of the buildings and it was a shame some of that was removed for additional parking. It seemed more like a university than a strip mall then.

I do wonder if some of the surface parking is land being held for future development. So hopefully there will be less of it at some point in the future.

I could definitely see MacU expanding north along 109th Street.

Not a ton of change, but progressing.

At this rate, it's given that they're probably going to be the U of A north of the river. I'm curious how long until people realize this massive growing student population and just create a mini-Whyte Ave somewhere in downtown, or adjacent to it. If you wanted younger population vibrancy, there's your ticket right here.

Take the blocks surrounding 108st, from alley to 107 street, and create a lively district including activated alleyways like Strathcona Backstreet. Redevelop the Best Buy power center block with higher density mixed use too. Bing bang boom, mini fun district for the revelers of both Grant Mac & Norquest, with a few old building already there for character
