Miscellaneous

That's the area just south of the Henday that was cleared leveled and serviced last fall. New water lines went in as well. Pile rigs have been there all winter.

The Old Brick warehouse facility is now being converted to the Good Will warehouse. They are moving about a block west from their current location

I've noticed this past year they have also cleared a ton of brush/trees along the Henday (east side of the road) from SPR to Yellowhead as well, assumedly for developing more warehouse/light industrial space.
 
Looks like something is happening here in Rosenthal, does anyone have any info on it?

Isn't this just a bunch of more apartments? Same as west of 218st

Perfectly "close" and yet too far from the new 3 billion dollar LRT to not actually serve. Such planning!
Just a little bit further west to connect to the $300 million rec center and new apartments. In my perfect world it could be elevated over the roundabouts

When you say same as west of 218 street, do you mean the same developer or just the same type of housing? I'd love if it was the same developer because I think those Edison apartments are pretty nice

I think a stop at winterburn road would also serve a good chunk of medium density as well, and you could push the rec center station a bit further west. (In paris they run trams right through the middle of the traffic circles, if elevated is too expensive.)
 
My husband and I walked to Triffo theatre for the ballet yesterday and as we walked along 106 Street, between 98 Ave and Jasper, I really noticed how classy and timeless many of the 70s buildings are. Not flashy, simple design, good harmony, mainly brick, and not at all dated. Made me wonder why we can't keep doing what works but keep trying to reinvent the damn wheel with all the patchwork finishes and bizarre design choices of the new builds. Clean lines and simple finishes age so well, developers should really walk around and look at some of these buildings. They may not get a lot of love because they're so unassuming but give me that over the 90s turrets of Michener Park or the mishmash cladding or weird ass faux Mondrian grids of almost every other recent new build.
