Yeah, that's one hawt building 😩

SCATHING 😭 but accurate. These renderings show a product that, if seen to execution, will embody all of the worst design principles of Edmonton's current development scene; random blocky grey patterns failing to break up blank walls between tiny punched-in windows. I didn't have much faith...

NOOOO ITS REGENCY ISNT IT 😭 😭 😭 (jk)

A group of us Planning students from the U of A had the opportunity to attend a paint night at Stantec, hosted by the Alberta Professional Planners Institute (APPI)! The 3rd floor is a really nice space, and I would love to see more of the tower one day. Our subject was 124th street :cool...

Looking really nice!!

I will say, visiting this specific Italian Centre has been a long standing tradition for my family. It would be cool if Teresa Spinelli and Co. could somehow make an individual Spinelli Cafe with a smaller bodega store and put that somewhere central, like in Wihkwentowin or near Whyte/Garneau.

Ur totally right, we should have the faregates at the entrances that lead underground. It will be more expensive and complicated to implement them tho, and I think entrances may need to be closed/reconfigured as part of a larger project which would reduce accessibility. It would've been great if...

In the underground stations the easy solution is obvious imo: You put the faregates in front of the stairs/escalators leading to and from the platforms. Stations like Southgate and Century Park could also have faregates at the pedway entrances. Others like Mckernan Belgravia, all Valley Line...

I wish Edmonton had a developer like Truman. They're doing so many high-quality projects in Calgary, and it would be great if a local big developer here could raise the bar a little in terms of quality architecture and design.

Hopefully they make the central street more pedestrianized in the final design :( Otherwise pretty cool!

4.2 million lowkey a STEAL. I hope the 50 year mortgage comes up here so my 21 year old self could buy this mountain villa (jk)

I understand where you're coming from, but I don't know if Edmonton will have the appetite for anything "inspirational" for a loooong time (private development-wise, at least). You'd be waiting on this site for 20 years probably. There's plenty of parking lots to go around, after all 🤣

Welcome back, early 2000's cheap apartment building! Who knew you'd be back in style 🙃 (I'll eat my shoe if it turns out nice)

Luichi's is kinda cheeks ngl (no hate towards the guys running the truck its just the coffee) I agree that our lack of street-level coffee shops in downtown is really stupid. We need MOAR COFFEEEEE

13 year old me is still holding out hope, okay 🥲
