A1 execution by the developer. Especially when I think back to how brutally cramped and awful the GoA had some of those office floors arranged prior lol

Oh la la, I never thought about the one huge benefit of living in a converted office building: elevators upon elevators. That'd sure make moving easier. And the units look great!Connect Tower

They are split Res/Office.

The best part of this is that not a single taxpayer subsidy was needed.

Looks decent, but most importantly it'll add some much need residents to the downtown.

This will be great of how many new people living right here in the heart of the core. I hope that this will encourage one or two of the empty spaces that are in proximity to this building to get filled by some sort of food business, or some sort of core essential service that isn't in the area currently.

It's good to see renewed faith in the downtown. I know that most people wanted to see this be a near instant population explosion; I would rather see it slow and measured with results that look to long-term viability. I will still rail against the bottom feeder developers.

Downtown will happen, it's going through a phase, but will pick up again. It hard to be patient while other cities have downtowns moving at faster paces, but it is what it is.

Until the woke "progressive" city council and Fed Liberals with their "catch and release" progressive rehab crime policies change nothing will change. Most normal people who work, take responsibility for their lives and actions have been so turned off by the crime drug addled circus that downtown Edmonton and the LRT have become it will take a miracle to recover. Why should people go downtown to step around human excrement and needles, get harassed by drug crazed and dangerous lunatics when they can find most services near their homes in safer non downtown areas.

^ With all due respect....all major cities have left leaning councils. Your statement makes little sense. It's an Edmonton problem not council.
With more than average blue collar workers and too many employers based away from the core making it less attractive to people to be downtown. YOu need more jobs downtown to create more life, more after work entertainment, more restaurants...

He's got a point. I'm in the younger cohort and I hear the same thing from my peers. Downtown is so nasty

The Cons won almost every age demograhic in the last federal election, including younger voters who are tired of over taxation, diminishing GDP per capita growth and economic and job opportunities, high home prices, rampant crime and anti-semitism. They voted for change - which is what this country needed after 10 years of Trudeau - arguably the worst most divisive PM in Canadian history who according to the Supreme Court used the draconian Emergencies Act illegally (for which no one will be held to account). The only demographic to continue to support this awful Liberal government and slimeball Carney are the Boomers and they obviously don't care what future the youth in this country will have. But according to Cubist - I should go medicate.
