Second Rec Room location almost ready to go in West Edmonton Mall
A new amusement experience is set to open in West Edmonton Mall by early fall, the second of its kind in the city.

The Rec Room, owned by Cineplex Entertainment, will be the third in Canada after the first opened last September at South Edmonton Common.

“West Edmonton Mall’s always been on our list and we always thought that we’d do at least two in Edmonton,” Dave Terry, vice-president and general manager of The Rec Room, said Wednesday.

The two-storey, 54,000-square-foot location has been built as an expansion to the mall, located near the empty Target store but not using the space.

A new parking deck was built for direct access from the outside and there is also an entrance from inside the mall near Jubilations Dinner Theatre.

This will be the first location to feature sports simulators and an augmented climbing wall as featured attractions, unlike the other location, which offers bowling and axe throwing.

Residents get new village-style housing passed by council
Edmonton approved zoning for its first co-housing apartment block Monday, creating a new option for those hoping to create a true village within the city.

The 26-unit apartment in Old Strathcona will be built with a great room large enough to host everyone for dinner, and a shared backyard and patio to let seniors and children interact. But each family or couple will have their own kitchen and living space in their condo as well.

It’s an ideal place to age, said Kathleen Harper, 80, one of nine core households putting the plan together.

“You need multi-generational friends and acquaintances … and it’s a secure environment to be friends,” said Harper.

“As you get older, you tend to become isolated. Your friends tend to be seniors or your family who drops in. But if you have an opportunity to see young people, maybe 30-year-olds and children, it’s excellent for your mental health.”

The building will be four storeys, with one-, two- and three-bedroom units on 88 Avenue near 101 Street. The community is still finalizing the design and looking for other families and individuals interested in buying. The units in the $10.6-million building will be sold at cost.

Council votes to protect Whyte Avenue landmark

With a tip of their hat, City Council has designated 'Tipton Investment Company Building' as a Municipal Historic Resource. The building, located at 10428 - 82 Avenue, is one of the more iconic buildings along Whyte Ave.

Constructed circa 1907, the 'Tipton Investment Company Building' is a rare and well-preserved example of the Boomtown Style architecture, which typified development in Alberta’s commercial cores in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It is one of only two Boomtown Style buildings continuing to stand in the Old Strathcona Provincial Historic Area and is an important part of the area's character and streetscape.

The building is named for J.G.Tipton, a prominent business man and municipal politician of the time, who operated his real-estate office in the building.

Principal Heritage Planner, Scott Ashe said “The Tipton Investment Company Building is important to understanding the early development of Old Strathcona. Its preservation is a unique opportunity to connect Edmontonians with the City’s past.”

The City's Historic Resource Management Plan outlines the City's mission to identify, protect and promote the preservation and use of historic resources. The Plan contains 24 policies and 88 action items that direct how Edmonton's heritage should be preserved and celebrated.

I had asked the City to declare this building an historical resource in 1972 -- I guess the bureaucratic wheels really do grind slowly!
 
I have been following Beljan Development with extreme interest. They really understand the sensitivity required for development in Old Strathcona (and elsewhere) more than anyone else, it seems.
