Yup, that corner.

I worked on the original plan for the area that included architectural guidelines, space allotment and concept.

My buddy lives in phase 1 and works at Felice. Says he’s talked to the developers a few times and they aren’t doing commercial in this phase sadly.

Sounds about right. I recall them scaling it back, but was curious if things had reverted.

 

[northlands]

I completely get that decision as expensive retail units on a non-high traffic street are a recipe for well aged “for lease” signs but I can’t help but wonder if it’ll be the wrong decision in the long term. Few redevelopment areas have had as much good going for them as the Edgewater/Stadium Yards neighbourhood area.

 

[IanO]

Certainly a balance, but one would hope that with the density nearby and this adding to the mix that folks would want a couple of spots within 400m.

There were a couple days of rain that set the construction back lately, but today, they're progressing well! They're getting ready to pour concrete for some more of the structure columns and the basement stairwell walls.

This is probably one of the developments I~m the most excited about right now, up there with The Parks (out of the ones under construction).
Does anyone have renders for the whole project (all phases)?

 

[MacLac]

Not even close - add me in for the highrise next door as an exciting project.....along with the Parks as my #1

You did miss the Under construction" part, right?

If we're talking in general, The Shift is right up there with The Parks, for me. But the fully built Stadium Yards is the best example of what we should be building all across the city: a great missing middle project!

This week has been busy for this construction site. They formed a large section for the walls for the concrete to be poured, likely for the parkade ramp due to close proximity to the street and the concrete was poured yesterday. They also started to pour sand and compact it on the Northwest corner of the site, likely getting ready to prep the underground parking concrete floors. On the south side of the site, they started to mark out the structure columns! A lot going on, I assuming they're pushing through before winter arrives so they can get the parkade done before the actual winter comes!

silly question but do those steel piles just remain in the ground forever or are they pulled up once the foundation is set?

 

[IanO]

The diagonal ones inside the formwork? Those get removed.

 

[Clearshades]

The inside of that formwork is the access/egress area to the parkade. Those are temporary shorings to keep the walls in place and plumb when concrete is poured as you don't want them to blow out from pressure. They're removed when the walls are sufficiently cured.

I think they’re referring to the steel piles around the edge of the site holding back the soil outside the excavation area. As far as I know, they stay in the ground forever? I’ve never seen them being removed.

 

[IanO]

As in the "I"/W beams with the wood for shoring? Yes, those remain.
