Custom Lego kit gifted to DIALOG commemorating the grand opening of Singhmar Centre.

I don't remember if I knew this or not, but the architect who worked on this building, Tom Sutherland, died in a ski accident in 2015.

Do any more word on the Norquest quad? Any timelines?

Demo has commenced.

Norquest is looking to building a mixed use building, this time at the NW corner of 102 Ave and 108 St. It will be called the 'Teaching and Research Continuing Care Centre'.

^ I saw some very preliminary plans for this about 20 years ago. From what I remember, they were thinking mixed use very much like this. Some classroom/lab space, a seniors home with a mix of assisted living and full service nursing care available that would allow for Norquest students in certain programs to get real hands on experience right there at the 108 St campus. Interesting to see this idea being brought forward again.

Yes with Capital Care having training facilities there. Now I see above the private religious sector is involved.

Needs its own thread @Avenuer -- significantly substantial development.

Cool development from Norquest, and I love that another surface parking lot will be replaced with density like this!!

 

[Airboy]

Looks like the would take that whole west side. The old CJCA building as well.

 

[Edmcowboy11]

This would be great to see.

Are you referring to the location in the Birks Building?

 

[Glenco]

This used to be CJCA

 

[IanO]

It won't go that far north. You can see the mid-block crossing in the stacking plan.

 

[IanO]

MODS - can we move this Norquest stuff to the Norquest thread?
