Fantastic job by Leston here.

This reminds me of Railtown by the Save-On-Foods in many ways. That was a catalyst for downtown in some ways and I think this gaggle of development (and park) should also bring a new sense of hope and optimism about our downtown. Just like railtown in its day, the developments leave something to...

I'd like to see a bit more colour given how Eagle's buildings are also very neutral, but overall I think this is good.

Is this Westrich? looks like their products of late

giant inflatable slide?

I find it a bit odd and surprising that Winnipeg has this momentum dt without a proper mass transportation system. They may be ahead of us (although our numbers are climbing too) but I would caution that their momentum is probably limited by their lack of investment in mass transit. It's less...

how is leasing going for this, Ian?

Maybe the city should have a referendum.... Option A: 5-6% property tax increase but free street parking Option B: 0% property tax increase (maybe for 2 years) but $50 per month street parking fee This would probably be the only way to package it. If the UCP tried to kibosh the street parking...

I like the idea in principle but the reality is it would impact the less wealthy the most as they are unlikely to have a house with a garage. An extra $60 a month, or $120 for two cars, is a lot for a family to absorb. Not everyone can choose to take transit.

I think same folks that own the Ice House

No it doesn’t make sense to be anywhere but attached to the UofA if it wants to retain its position as a top research hospital. This will be somewhere at the u of a main campus; most likely the blood services building
