Hell, if they insist on being the ones to develop the site in the end, just put a carbon copy of The Pearl there (roughly the same lot size). Would be better than any of their recent offerings.

That’s the nicer side of it too, go take a look at the southeast corner by oeb, the remnants of some encampment are in that corner, it’s a beauty.

Global News had a feature on Tower 101 and the non-construction.

Good, there should be a ton of highlighting this area as it’s becoming a massive problem. With the manulife and Scotia construction and this lot it has become a massive dead zone. Someone was randomly attacked on the sidewalk on 101 street just outside Enbridge Center last week. This is one of our premium buildings and it’s in a war zone.Vacant problem problem property in downtown Edmonton | Watch News Videos Online

I think The Last of Us had to spruce up the torn-down BMO site when they shot downtown.

So he has enough money to buy the building, tear the building down, leave it a mess, but cites no good reasons of to build. Meanwhile stationlands has built and will continue to build, Parks has completed its residential high rise and may soon build more. And further he probably is unwilling to sell to someone else who will build. The city has to stop being weak on property owners that do this. Arlington site was at least somewhat out of the way but 101 is right in the heart and is, as said in the article, an eyesore.

To me, this says a lot about the integrity and professionalism of a guy who responds to questions about the absolutely embarassing and disgraceful condition of this site in the "heart of the heart" of the dowtown core of his hometown city with a shrug. I don't know how we are ever going to truly move forward with rivitalizing our beleaguered core with people like this owning large chunks of property in the heart of our downtown.

How long before they flip the land?

Yup, a large one that can clearly be seen from the street as there are fences around the holes to keep people out... always curious if it is home to a few these days.
