With the completion of exterior construction on both the Peak and the CWB buildings down the street and now filling this space, this street can start to become pleasant again.

It's great news. I wonder if they considered the Augustana at all, which remains in search of a restaurant tenant.

I recall chatting with the developer a number of years ago now and their hope was a Marc like spot.

I doubt it... that likely stays closed to public/only accessible for HSBC tenants.

FYI HSBC Canada has been bought by RBC. Some branches be shutting me thinks.

With the HSBC building so nicely renovated and RBC not having a street front branch anymore, I could see the HSBC building and branch eventually becoming a main RBC location downtown.
It would be good if they could restore access to City Centre at some point, not sure if the tenants in the building alone would be enough to sustain retailers there.

RBC has street frontage to 101 Street and to 104 Avenue in the City of Edmonton Tower. It’s not a large branch but none of them are nowadays. The City Centre branch also has exterior exposure although not access as it’s on the second floor.

Oh yes, there is this 104 Ave branch, which for some reason I did not think of maybe because of the smaller size, even though I do go by it from time to time.
I still think the HSBC location would be better and more prominent and suiting one of the largest banks in Canada, unless they want to cede to TD or others who do have larger and more prominent downtown locations.
And given that they are already buying HSBC, they don't have to do much to get a better location.
