Stationlands Residential Towers | 90m | 25s | Qualico | DIALOG

[David A]

The width seems somewhat similar to the Edmonton Tower but perhaps more noticeable due to the design, location, position and lack of taller buildings right nearby.

I agree the residential building is very nice and enhances it.

It's so cute! It's like a momma tower with her little baby

Desperately need to get the lot south developed and the joeys lot developed as well.

Nature can be so beautiful sometimes

I believe Allard owns that parking lot on the SE corner of 101 St/104 Ave - and we know how much Allard loves their parking lots!

Sometimes I imagine what it would look like if we had towers on that lot, the lot across (directly across from Edmonton tower and Joey's) and the "trophy tower" site owned by Katz. Now that would give off some seriously big city vibes and give a huge shot in the arm for downtown.

That’ll be a nice little cluster when the 39 storey gets finished…..

How about a mixed-use tower with an Alt Hotel and an IMAX movie theatre?

I think the second tower on Stationlands would be great in creating the visual density we want to see.
As for Katz's land, I'm actually ok right now with the paved program space he has, but I'd love to see the block to the north (where the Boyle street was) developed. The fact that Japanese Village is now in the strip along the main road is a hopeful sign that this block could start attracting more attention.

Downtown really could use an ALT Hotel.

Didn't the IMAX previously fall through in Ice District? I'm not sure if already having the nearby movie theatres in City Centre impacted that.

With all the people that have already mentioned Alt here over the years, I am convinced that either that hotel business is not aware of Edmonton or this forum, but perhaps it will happen some day.

From a distance, I don't find the design to be anything too spectacular, but the quality of the materials does come off quite nicely at a closer distance.

They are definitely aware of Edmonton. In fact, an Alt+ hotel was supposed to go into the abandoned Mackenzie Tower project a mere five years ago. Sadly they haven't returned to try another option. Lost in the haze of the pandemic I suppose.

Probably a top 5 project I’m sad we never saw built.

Is that really all gun metal grey on the wide portion of the building on the left, or is that a trick of lighting at the time of day the picture was taken?
