"On behalf of ProCura and Century Park Developments, we are very proud to now formally announce our receipt of the Development Permit for The Louvre. Foundation Permit to be submitted immediately to CoE. This building boasts 358 “affordable luxury apartments” and 5 CRU spaces as a premier mixed use development. ProCura’s commitment to sustainability and minimizing our climate impacts through development remain a high priority. For The Louvre we are committed to a solar initiative and high efficiency systems for the building. Our amenity spaces are under design development with IBI Group and are very forward thinking.

I think this one will largely depend on what the actual finished materials used are. One reason I liked the clock tower design is that the materials looked solid, especially given Pelli Clarke Pelli was involved. I imagine things were turned over to Dialog at some point. Hopefully, some of the refinement is retained - it feels like it was dumbed down too far for our market - maybe some of the "luxury" will be found inside. Whenever luxury is tossed around in Edmonton though, it doesn't have a lot of meaning outside of detached housing (except perhaps West Block and elements of the Pearl)

I'm cautiously optimistic.
 
I preferred the original render. This one is o.k. too but seems a bit too average / boring for my liking. Having said that, I'd still be excited to see this built cause ten years ago we had high hopes for this piece of land, and now we're just hoping to get rid of the gravel.
