Mill Woods Town Centre Redevelopment | ?m | ?s

[Jah]

Isn’t the 2 tower proposal in the little chunk of land beside the bus breezeway and the Arby’s? This looks like it is the entire quarter section……

For some reason the plot&zoning maps for mwtc is one giant block and isn't subdivided (all lot 3 block 6). If they have a specific location in mind, I can't tell which.
According to https://envisionmwtc.ca/ which seems to be the public engagement of the developer it's planned for the top right of it.

Please bring on the 75m buildings and away with the parking lots.

This whole area could be easily developed into a TOD dream. The mall could also fill the gap between it and the bus terminal with a multi-level multi use building.

If people don’t think density belongs here… idk what they expect. SFHs to red deer is the only acceptable option I guess.

Millwoods - of all places is saying "too tall," that's rich. Most of the residents of Millwoods don't know the history of it. The fact that was dirt cheap land in an era of 24% mortgage rates and that most of the "older" parts were built with "sweat equity," of the owners. In a time of ZERO show homes and Jimmy-rigged construction methods and piss poor planning....etc etc....

No surprises here with the reasons for opposition. Straight from the NIMBY playbook.

I fully expect this rezoning to be approved, probably unanimously

I'd be surprised if there is any debate. This checks all boxes of the City Plan full stop.

It's not even close to any other residential so I don't know what the complaint would be.

Ohhhhh no, one of the most depressing malls in the City is getting a bit of shade...

Some of the people who live in areas like this seem to have a very irrational fear of taller buildings even though there are a few, although not a lot, already in Millwoods.

The height argument makes absolutely no sense. There is already a 15 storey building a block away @ 66th and 28th.

Living in millwoods my entire life, I would say I welcome a bunch of high density developments in the town center area.

Let everyone be heard, but then make the right decision. This site is ripe for TOD redevelopment and will move forward.

Give people riding the LRT a reason to come to the millwoods Towne centre area.
