Drove by the other day and noticed some windows boarded up.

I don't see much happening there. Not a big chunk of land if I am thinking about it.

OMG, amazing. Even if it's just being leveled and replaced with grass, that building is awful, and I hate how prominent it is when driving into DT from 97 Ave.
 
This place is such an eyesore. I'll admit each time I pass by (lots in the summer when we go cycling) I think, I should report it to the City, and then I promptly forget. Glad something is happening. This is one location where pretty much anything is better than what's there now. The driveway is strewn with garbage and a decaying old car, it's just vile.
 
^Would it be expropriated as part of changes to the Rossdale road network? Just a thought, I haven't looked at the maps.

Personally, I think it is again quite shortsighted to have removed 50% of exit capacity from 106st and now losing 103st south too.

I get the complexity of the above, but it's going to cause a major issue for those leaving Downtown.

Stupid.

+ the upcoming decommissioning of the southbound low level bridge, which basically renders McDougal Hill rd into a scenic route to Bellamy Hill Rd for those headed south out of dt.
 
Not only will Bellamy Hill SB be closed in favor of a bidirectional Bellamy Hill NB road, but the Iginla building needs to be demolished in favor of a widened sidewalk and maybe a bike path.

We live less than a block from here and the sidewalk basically disappears at the corner. It's not safe and definitely not attractive. Looking forward to seeing what happens here!

With the constrained space because of the road/sidewalk and the two buildings north of it, I don't see a lot of room to build here and right next to the busy road is not that appealing anyways.

So unfortunately I feel this could become yet another empty lot in this area, which already seems to be the main feature of west Rossdale.
