Village on 121 | 60.04m | 18s | Nearctic Group | GEC

@westcoastjos If I were a betting man, I would hazard a guess that Nearctic was hoping to use sales of condos in this building to help finance the first phase of Strathearn. But, as with Strathearn once already, the condo market vanished overnight and they are stuck in limbo once again.

Looks great! Can someone eli5 what this permit application does? How does today's development move the project forward? Thanks.

 

[Daveography]

@MoreDensity A development permit requires the applicant to provide details of the project to a development officer who will make sure it meets zoning, codes, etc., or if it requires any variances. One more review by EDC will also be required at this stage. Once approved, they can apply to get their building permits to actually start construction.

This one could be my new favorite for the under 75m category. Hope it goes. This neighborhood is happening.

 

[Edmontonian]

Fits even better with all the new developments coming up around the area.

Has Nearctic actually built anything? They had that hotel proposal north of the arena that has changed several times too.

Awesome to see given how long that site has sat vacant.

I remember working on an initial proposal for them almost a decade ago.

 

[MacLac]

Yay! Hopefully also a precursor to their upcoming Strathearn project……

 

[Dubas]

Where exactly is this? Google maps brings this address to the same plot of land as the Open Sky project.

I really like the design.

121 street is becoming one of the premiere livable streets in Edmonton -- walkable, Paul Kane Park (extraordinaire), shops & offices (Oliver Exchange), etc.
