O-day’min Park (formerly Warehouse Park)

[Ohman]

please no 6-storey woodframes on Jasper ave, i beg you.

As others mentioned, would be a good spot for the park to expand with an actual formal beautiful entrance from jasper avenue, (imagine!)

Alternatively, i wouldnt mind seeing some well designed park pavilions that could host restaurants etc... Or just some good old fashioned well designed residential towers with proper podiums, like the parks, with park facing CRUs and such

Personally I'd prefer a low-rise on these sites, to allow more sunlight into the park.

Would love to see CRUs with patios facing the park though, with vehicle entrances off 106 and 107st so the alleyway can be closed to traffic.

Well no high rises being built nearby on empty lots, so tearing down a perfectly functional building here in the hope of something happening would be a mistake IMO, but the kind Edmonton seems to keep on making again and again.

Someone on Reddit says the owners of that lot (BP's/parking lot) WILL sell now. Says they have offers for that lot in the $20-25 million range for the land.

Anyone in the know care to offer a wink or touch their noses on this one?

I thought it was separate owners for those two parcels, no?

I got my info from Reddit...so you know. May not be accurate.

While Jasper Avenue Boston Pizza closes, traffic shifts towards Ice District

As a longstanding Boston Pizza on Jasper Ave. shuts its doors, questions rise about Ice District sucking energy from the rest of downtown.

The whole 106-107 Street Block will be empty when Boston Pizza closes.

wasnt that always the likely outcome?
