I'm guessing that this project should sale through Design Review.

This and CNIB are my favourite projects. I suppose Quarters tower, but I deem that to be less realistic at this point.

Are you referring to the Alrdritt Tower?

 

[Platinum107]

@westcoastjos I think that the Alldritt tower will still happen personally. They are just doing behind-the-scenes design work i think

Indeed.

 

[Him]

Indeed.

Personally I think they will go through with it too. I don't foresee them reducing the proposed height either. Based off of articles i;ve read, Aldritt is looking to make a statement and stamp their legacy in Edmonton.

 

[Kaizen]

I hope your right @Swore. Heck, why not shoot for the moon into super tall status!
The project location/amenities/status..., and need for an increase in quality hotel and convention space all are a plus.
It needs height to offset the geo tech challenges, as per articles you've mentioned.
Hopefully soon a hotelier is announced and updated renders that raise the bar.
Anyone have any guesses as to brand? Could it be a multi-brand?
Oh the suspense ...

Also, has anyone heard of a change in Architect ? I can't remember where I heard that it's not Kennedy anymore.

 

[Platinum107]

@Kaizen I would definitely like to hear some more info, as by the first estimate, the tower was supposed to start construction last month! (I mean, I didn't fully trust that estimate, but still)

 

[Kaizen]

@archited , Mackenzie Tower design is da chic sexy bitch

 

[Kaizen]

@Platinum107 Ah, my mistake and wasn't clear, as I'm anxiously waiting to hear any news's too.
It has been quiet for a long time. I'll start to worry if nothing by this time next year.
All speculation
