First floor

Second floor

Holy that's a huge space.

 

[Kosy123]

Watch it be a Simons lol

But for real, would that be a retail or a restaurant tenant? That's a massive floor space.

 

[degrandprix]

Rec Room maybe?

Big bank incoming!

Not the 2nd floor space on the west side, just the NE corner down to Banquet. I'm not sure what's on the NW and W.

Interesting, that's a very large space then. Any info on what type of tenant?

Sorry I cannot disclose at this time! But one of the guesses is correct.

 

[MacLac]

So the guesses are: Simon's, bank, restaurant or a Cineplex Rec Room....

Realllly hope it's not bank then

 

[archited]

I have to think that if it was to be the restaurant or the Rec Room that disclosure now would not be a problem. The bank and Simon's would want to keep things quiet until their City clearances have been achieved.

 

[cmd uw]

Not even worth betting but I will say it's a bank. Why, because they pay the rates and want prime frontage. Oh and there's that thing called 'covenant'.

This would destroy banquet…. Seems counterproductive.

I think only ECC has the square footage Simons needs.

It's still feasability at this point. More than anything the large thick roughly 400mm (16") concrete floors and the massive amounts of rebar is hampering our ability to place the amount of plumbing fixtures this tenant needs. We're coming up with ideas like raising the rooms requiring lots of plumbing so we can either used pre sleeved piping connections or find a spot where we can core down, or having chase spaces that could achieve the same thing without the diffuculty of having multiple levels. I don't think they planned on these spaces being anything more than retail and office, but the tenant is eager to make this space work being in such a high visiblity location.

Banquet is more bar/restaurant with games while rec room is games with attached bar/restaurant. If anything is going to kill Banquet it’s going to be that it’s hidden around the corner on the second floor.

I seem to recall a conversation on here that Simons has a corporate minimum distance requirement which is part of.why Londonderry and WEM were chosen as their locations and Southgate/downtown weren't. Couldn't find it though.

Would be terrible if it's a bank. Like what the hell, isn't this supposed to be Edmonton's entertainment destination? The only thing being entertained is my will to leave this city, smh.
