Nice little project on 88 Avenue right next to the Sugarbowl.

Some history from @_Citizen_Dane_:

Thanks for sharing Dave! Just to be clear, when I write that “maybe there’s a case for the Milla to be saved,” I don’t want anyone here getting the impression that I’m actually advocating for it — it’s more just a food for thought exercise given some of its significance.

I’m very curious to see what they plan on doing with the land, especially since Nosirrah says it was bought by Gather Co.
 
@_Citizen_Dane_ I had no idea the history of the building as an early LGBTQ hangout, and I imagine I'm not alone in that, and appreciate helping to bring those hidden tidbits of history to light.

ECAMP has had some great similar stories lately:
 
Some movement on this property (105 Street as you're coming uphill):

Looks like they're going to be rezoning from an existing DC2 to HDR, which will allow a building up to 50m (the DC2 allowed up to 77.5m or 26 stories).

I'm not too choked up about the change, the DC2 was designed as an early 2000s BZKa special from the look of it, complete with requisite blank stucco wall.

@archited Parkwood has had a For Sale sign on the property since at least 2016. Not sure if it has been sold and the new owner is seeking the rezoning, or if Parkwood is rezoning to make it more attractive to a buyer than a prescriptive Direct Control zone. I'm going to guess it's the later.
 
Looks like a building is set to go up on this lot between Chez Pierre's and the dry cleaners:

Poor Impark :(
 
The little commercial building at the East end of Jasper has gotten a bit of a refresh, took this a little over a week ago. Kind of a disappointment considering the potential for the spot.

I think at one time there was a proposal for this site...or it was close to this site.
