Does anyone know if WEM is planning any connection to the station? Or will it just be an exposed walkway across the parking lot?

It's been a few years since I moved from YEG to DT YYC and in that time I've seen the entire Bow Riverwalk and pathways on the Eau Claire side of the river get transformed. And now this: Concept design chosen for new public area along Bow River Meanwhile we continue to do absolutely nothing...

So after all the excitement is this just dead now? It's so sad that our most significant regional asset (River Valley) from a tourism and defining characteristic perspective doesn't have any credible (active project with real timelines and budget) master plan for its development through the...

Haha I think I've had dinner there once in my life back maybe a decade ago...Even then I wondered why this wasn't located in a (at the time) up and coming South Edmonton Common.

Well it'll really be something to see those few blocks in a couple years. Add in the park development and the towers slated for the east/North sides and it will be a very unique node in the DT core. Now if only that BPs can finally disappear :)

Interesting...seems fast to me? I assumed they would wait till 22'. Aren't the retail bays still teeming with a....Money Mart and Queen Donair?

@Daveography any updates from EDC?

Dave a bunch of big projects coming up to EDC this week. Hoping you will have updates for us!

Wow. Good to heard. Seems like there are active development plans for all portions of the former Ed Motors site. And the fact that it's being managed by 3 different groups gives more optimism to development occuring in a tighter timeline (vs. staged multiphase dev if one group were to proceed).

Unless they've materially changed their design/material plans that is. Last time I contacted them and ask directly they confirmed that both towers would be using a similar stucco product to the Icons.

Both.

The one tower I was really hoping WOULDN'T go through....simply because it's the only mainly stucco tower still being planned in DTYEG. Not to mention a prime southern skyline view.

I think the intent here is simplicity in design of the modern addition. Not trying to have its own "impact" but just elegantly highlight and embolden the contemporary structure

WOW.....simple, elegant and perfect complement to a historic marvel in this city.

42 floors? Is that new? I thought they were revising the height down...
