15 years later, the NE corner of Jasper Ave and 116 St is still begging for development

Leasing land is a very tough nut to crack in a high density area.

Who owns that land?

Was it Cameron?

There was a gas station here once upon a time, has been vacant since for at least 15 years now (aside from Westrich's sale centre).
Curious why this hasn't been sold or developed as a high density development site yet. It would be disappointing if a strip mall or some other low density development was built here.

Thanks for reminding me, @_urbanite - it could be that soil remediation from that gas station is likely the reason why it's taking so long for development to occur.

I believe it was the price and lack of motivation by the seller versus anything else.

Precast panel repair for the ATB Place North Tower. Looks like they're working on the west elevation for 2022 first. Repair focuses on restoring the concrete mainly (delamination repair, crack repair, sealant replacement, etc.).

Well that's not as exciting as we had hoped. Good that they're doing this though

The exciting part is that they are NOT recladding, but restoring.

Yesterday morning on Global…..mentioned 120st and ?? Ave as being shut down for a “crane lift.” St.John’s? The Jameson?

Probably for the St. John's site, which started before The Jameson and should be bottomed out by now

I wonder whether they made any of the changes EDC outlined:
"COMMITTEE DELIBERATION (Closed to the Public)
Rabah Medical Clinic (Development Permit)
Jacquelyn Skeffington - Concept Plus
MOTION: D. Brown
Motion of non-support
The Committee notes this development would have benefited from an informal presentation and that the Applicant should consider the following:
The purpose of the Main Streets Overlay setback regulation is to activate the street and public realm (eg. provide seating opportunities and better define entry conditions). The approach to have it primarily serve for the purposes of accessibility is counterintuitive to the intent of regulation.
The Committee feels that the applicant should investigate better utilizing the site to address the interface to 82 Ave (eg. increase front setback along 82 Ave).
The current interface and grade change is not in compliance with the City of Edmonton’s Access Design Guide or ADA/Universal Design. Given the location and the proposed use, the Committee feels these guiding principles should be applied. An alternative approach to the rear should be explored to reduce the amount of proposed asphalt and improve parking and amenity/landscape space development (eg. potential staff amenity space).

Londonderry Mall update - it took a couple of years but Starbucks has finally been put out of our misery!
