Michael, the brewery was designated as a Municipal Historic Resource in 2013 so it's protected. Around the same time, the site was part of a rezoning that was approved to allow surrounding residential and hotel development. This development obviously hasn't happened but the property owner, Five Oaks, now has a revised development concept that the City will be consulting the public about soon. It should be listed shortly enough on
https://www.edmonton.ca/residential_neighbourhoods/neighbourhoods/rossdale-planning-applications so keep an eye there. The idea now as it was in the rezoning a decade or so ago is to rehabilitate the brewery and get some new residential and/or commercial activities going in it.
