The Wedge | 38.1m | 11s | Holo Blok

They hit the nail on the head with this latest rendering. Beautiful work, definitely will set a precedence for narrow site design if this gets built.

Looking great, like the new render. Will add to vibe of jasper no doubt especially with the murals I like how YEG is becoming more mural friendly overall.

I really hope this one goes ahead. So many skeptics on other boards saying this one had no chance.

Looks good but I'm scared they are going to price this way too high. I believe this would make an excellent rental property.

Looks like something straight from NYC. That is a good thing. I could imagine seeing this walking along The Highline.

Yes, but @Daveography, if you check out his Linkedin page, Rohit Handa seems to have been trained in Architecture and in Law and worked at Stantec for awhile.

I met with him last week to discuss supplying our window and curtain wall system. Very knowledgeable guy!

 

[Platinum107]

I think that these floorplans look pretty stellar! But, are there no doors to the bedrooms? That would be kind of be a deal breaker for me, not gonna lie...

 

[Daveography]

@Platinum107 I think they're bachelor-y, but I think the renders show a sliding door system in the 900 units at least.

 

[OverheardatYEG]

They are definitely tight units I expect maximum sliding doors if any but when you walk beside the site and realize they are fitting 4 units on that tiny floor plate you understand why there are only sliding doors.

Like the exteriors, I think that the interiors have been creatively expressed to the extreme. From that aspect I would buy into one of these.

 

[Kaizen]

Very nice, will be a great addition. Hopefully its not over priced and sparks a lot more infill of this type.

@Platinum107, the building code requires natural light and fenestration for bedroom areas -- the only way that this can be achieved in this long narrow building is to remove one of the bedroom walls, essentially creating one large living space. There are many ways to screen this off creatively -- sliding wall panels is one way out of about thirty that immediately come to mind. I think that this space is more creative than most condo plans I have seen for other Edmonton buildings.
