@CaptainBL my contacts at Alldritt are David Benjestorf, Salem Alahmad (City of Edmonton), Leigh Makarewicz (City of Edmonton) and Diana Plamondon (Alldritt Land) -- hardly "a couple of [anonymous] folks".

Thanks for sharing, appreciate the insights.

And I can't share details of what is coming because there are sensitive negotiations on track. Of course speculation abounds and I understand that, but quoting "a couple of folks" hardly leads to substantiation -- neither do generalizations regarding economic conditions.

Good to know Salem is involved!

I can confirm that Leigh doesn't work at the City currently, however.

I know for a fact that Salem is working with the city. If he's working on making this project happen, I am happy, he's an excellent asset to have working on something.

This all sounds very interesting…

Soooooooo...this project may or may not be going ahead?

 

[IanO]

I suspect it will at some point, but in what form, by whom and how tall is to be determined.

 

[Whattagame]

Sure they do... I only "harp" because of the Trumpism that you constantly employ. Trump says "Other people say... or "I have heard people say... 'O says " Hearing that... from a couple of folks."

For what it's worth, those examples are fundamentally different. Trump used this device in an attempt to create a false narrative of widespread public positive public opinion. He did not use this to convey inside information from relevant but anonymous sources.

Oh it'll be constructed all right, I bet we get this:

I love the windows and ACM!!

Sooo with the March 20th date that was referenced fast approaching and @archited staking his reputation, I am curious if we will be seeing movement on this project this month. Any guesses or updates?

@archited Any update? Was the sales trailer set up this weekend?

 

[archited]

"COVID delays" is the response coming back -- "soon" is the next time frame.

I still don't think we will ever see anything over 40 storeys on this property. I am even less confident Alldritt will be the developer.
