Tower 101 | 175m | 50s | Regency Developments | DER + Associates

And the kicker here. I have no idea why they would advertise to anyone that they are associated with this POS site.
…
And the “BUILDING for the Community”. What a joke!! How they have the nerve to attach that phrase to this site is beyond belief. The current state of this site and how long they have left it in this condition should be an embarrassment to this “developer”. Truly a festering black sore in the centre of the face of our downtown core. Shameful!!

it’s a very small percentage of the community that knows how long they have owned the site and have been responsible for its condition.

the vast majority will look the wrap - including the developer’s name on it - and think “it’s about time someone bought this and is going to do something with it, good for them”.

121 is for sale. I'd be willing to bet Regency doesn't start another project until that sells

Just another reminder about how much Regency cares about the communities they develop in. These pictures are from today. Tadpoles starting to grow in the swamp now

Leave the ducks alone.

who needs warehouse district park when you can just sell all the sites to regency and watch them naturally develop into greenspace

 

[_urbanite]

Oh yeah, this one too

I saw that today, someone actually had a campfire there. I wonder how long it took the fire department to put it out. There is still fresh wood beside it! lol

A mini version of the new warehouse district park... ponds, benches, picnic areas.

For the first time I actually sent an e-mail to my councilor regarding this wildlife hangout. The City is not spraying for mosquitos this year but is encouraging residents to minimize areas of standing water. If the City is impotent in its ability to force developers maintain their property aesthetically, they surely must now have to take steps to get rid of the breeding pond on Jasper?
I didn't receive a reply to my e-mail and my wager is that I get a mosquito bite before anything is done.

That fire and bench is an absolute classic though. What's next? Paddle boarding? Maybe this is what is meant by "touch the water".

In her Facebook chat from a couple of weeks ago, Councillor Anne Stevenson said that new taxation penalties were being introduced for derelict properties such as Tower 101, other Regency properties and The Arlington.

I'm going to take 100% credit for that hahaha

Well let's hope it gets things moving or at least having these sites cleaned up. It's atrocious that they've been left to decay like this.

On top of penalizing derelict land owners, maybe the city can provide tax incentives and extended limits when it comes to rezoning for responsible developers who convert their lots to well-maintained temporary park spaces.

This would have been a better dog park than the lame one One Properties did
