@Kaizen Thank you, and yes!

 

[Kencanadian]

Have they made any headway on the Aldritt? Has anyone heard anything?

 

[archited]

Final plans almost complete -- news coming out any day now.

 

[Hqcan]

@archited where did you hear this?

My info is about a month old now but the update I received at that time was that, while the project was certainly still progressing and planning work still ongoing, current market demands were being re-evaluated to understand how and when things should proceed.

 

[Kaizen]

I hope it's good news. This is the most anticipated project for me ( thought there are so many it's hard to keep up with all ! ), I don't know if I can handle disappointment ?

 

[Hqcan]

Me as well @Kaizen. Waiting to here back from @archited as my (dated) info didn't sound as promising in the short term.

Still know for certain that the value drivers for this group (Aldritt) and this site (with the already executed land swaps with the City to consolidate a Jasper Ave/River Valley site) are very solid. This is not a game of kicking tires.

 

[archited]

@Hqcan I can't say...

 

[Edmontonian]

Mysterious ?

 

[Hqcan]

@Hqcan I can't say...

Appreciate the reply and fully understand confidentiality on these matters. Based on the "any day now" comment I may just hold my breath for the next few

 

[Hqcan]

@archited I don't know how much longer I can hold my breath...

 

[archited]

@Hqcan are you turning blue yet? (send us a photo)

 

[Hqcan]

? (ignore the icicles...I'm just also cold)

Looking forward to Gene Dub's take on the tower.

I honestly thought Brad Kennedy's submission was great, though. I would have been very happy to see it built.

 

[Kencanadian]

I hope that they would keep the height at least the previously announced amount... Or even add a few stories, just for good measure!

Aldritt tower when complete. ~Edmonton, year 20(Fill in the blank)

Just saying this tower will look like the bad guys tower in Half Life 2
