Less than two months since we last checked in at the site of Infiniti in Queen Mary Park, and progress has been swifter than the name implies, the 6-storey mid-rise now nearly topped off and ready for cladding. Built using timber frame construction, the residential block has been going up quickly, the Brian Allsopp Architect-designed development soon to welcome home 109 units' worth of new residents.

Viewed above and below, Infiniti has already received most of its windows, with cladding yet to come. While some may lament the lack of natural light, given the relatively small size of the window openings, residents will be able to take advantage of the available outdoor space thanks to the inclusion of balconies.

Backing onto Oliver Square, Infiniti will place residents within easy walking distance of a collection of big box stores and retail, in addition to the nearby green space of Oliver Park.

Once complete, Inifiniti will be clad in a colourful mix of white, grey, black, and red spandrel, a combination which will be sure to make this development stand out amid its surrounding. 

SkyriseEdmonton will be sure to return to this project as progress continues. For more information, check out the associated Database file and Forum thread, and as always, feel free to join the conversation in the comments section below.
