Busted.

You can find out information here River Crossing and here River Crossing Land Use Detail on what the city is planning for this area.

If I understand correctly the city isn't planning to build anything here, but just coming up with ideas it hopes some private developers will follow or take up which it refers to as planning.

It's crazy how much curb appeal can be added by adding a weird window to townhomes.

So which building is this again?

Finally demo work has begun at Citadel Muse in St Albert. Christianson sold the property. The new development will have more retail on the main floor.

Nova Group now owns the property.

Didn't see an entry for this site, but it looks like work has started on something on the corner of 83 Ave and 111 St

I can't tell if it's supposed to look like wood or bronze. Either way, could be worse.

That the Supportive living facility?

I'm not sure either, but it looks nice. Also the colour and size fits in well with the building next to it.

There's a thread going for this building here: https://edmonton.skyrisecities.com/forum/threads/garneau-supportive-housing-city-of-edmonton.40747/

“EPL is working closely with the City of Edmonton to design a new and more spacious Riverbend Branch at the Bryan Anderson Athletic Grounds Park near the Terwillegar Community Recreation Centre and the Leger Transit Centre.

It will be a medium-sized branch twice the size of the current location. With the space between 15,000 sq. ft. and 18,000 sq. ft., it will feature:

• A larger program room
• A makerspace with the latest equipment
• A children’s play space
• Enclosed spaces for quiet study
• Collaboration spaces for group work
• Plentiful soft seating for reading or visiting
• Collections to engage readers, listeners and viewers of all ages
• Lots of natural light
• Ample parking

The new Riverbend Branch will be located near the Lillian Osborne School, Archbishop Joseph MacNeil Catholic School, Mother Margaret Mary Catholic High School.

The new Riverbend Branch is not currently funded for construction.”

Looks good. Keep it on the back burner till City finances shore up better.
