The Armstrong/Rankine-Hume Residence is now fenced. (I got photos from all around before the fencing went up, if anyone is curious.)

And I either missed it or forgot, what's happening here?

Here's my understanding: it was bought by (I think) the brother of the owner of Leonardo's Café, who was planning to turn it into a wellness center. My guess is that the owner discovered it was in worse condition than he thought, because a demolition application went up a few weeks ago.
In any case, now it's gone.
At least the Chenier-Beauchamp Residence down the street is being renovated...

It is too bad this was one of the few areas with a number of houses from this era. I hope whatever is built will fit in with the older houses there.
I feel we need a historic area designation for such areas both to protect what is there and to ensure if something has to be replaced it fits in and does not look like a suburban monstrosity.

Many of the brick resource houses also have brick foundations and they, in particular, take a beating in Edmonton's climate if they are not well maintained. The two storey Victorian that I owned in the Boyle Street area had a complete failure in one corner of the basement where water had gotten in and when the wall froze up in winters (prior to my ownership) the bricks dissembled and the structure failed. I had to remover them by hand (while I shored up the main floor) and then replace them with new salvaged bricks from another demo site -- extremely laborious undertaking -- since I did the work myself it was time consuming but not out-of-pocket; if I had had to hire someone, well that would have been mega-bucks.

Site is fenced off with a rendering of what is going there. Was driving by so didn't get a chance to see what it looks like.
This is all fenced off too. Not sure if it's drainage work or anything but the fence has been there for about a week now and there's construction vehicles on site.

Turns out it's a different Loblaws brand:
Honestly, it's kinda unnerving seeing a shoppers this big...

So the site on 109th has a Pagnotta sign on it and a drill rig on it as I drove by this morning. Looking forward seeing what's going in there.

Nice to see stuff happening on 109th close to Whyte.

No reverse image search results. Maybe an unannounced project?
