I like "cementitious architectural cladding" (Code word for 'Stucco')

I think a name change is in order for me... "Cementitious"

@StopDropandLOL ? I may have just changed my Twitter name to "Cementitious Architectural Cladding"

 

[archited]

There are others -- "architectural bonding agent" (it's a marriage councilor specifically tasked with keeping designers connected one to the other in wedded bliss).

Proposed rezoning in Strathcona for a mid-rise apartment
January 9, 2020

Edmontonians are invited to a drop-in engagement session to learn more about the proposed rezoning of properties on the northeast corner of 99 Street NW and 90 Avenue NW.

Date: Wednesday, January 15
Time: 6 - 8 pm
Location: Strathcona Community League, 10139 87 Avenue NW

The proposed rezoning would allow for the development of a seven storey apartment with a maximum of 60 residential units, an eighth storey indoor/outdoor rooftop amenity area, street level commercial space fronting 99 street and underground parking. An amendment to the Strathcona Area Redevelopment Plan would be required to facilitate the proposed rezoning.

The engagement session will be an opportunity to learn more about the proposal and share your views with the City and the applicant. Feedback will be summarized in a report to City Council for when the proposed rezoning goes to City Council Public Hearing for a decision.

We need more of this thoughtful design.

 

[Avenuer]

This is a big improvement over their original proposal.

A big improvement over the original, but boy it's still...boxy...

A big improvement over the original, but boy it's still...boxy...

I'll take this any day of the week over Manchester Square.




Maybe I set the bar too low? ?

[Clearshades]

Interm of design element, it is done quite nicely. Unfortunately, the color pallet choices they have chosen are quite totalitarian. Brighten the colors up, it would be quite relevant.

 

[Daveography]

Rezoning was approved.

 

[IanO]

I like this project a lot and hope that it begins the raise the bar for 99th.

 

[Clearshades]

That district is slightly utilitarian looking, so I agree.
