No kidding; nailed it.

That has got to be one of the worst franken-hatchet TI jobs I've ever seen. I feel sorry for the tenant.

Not meaning to derail ( ;)) this thread but that hotel on the far right of the photo is being revealed. Already, Bart no like.

That project has been a ghost town for easily over 25+ years. As long as I can recall, its vacancy has been exceedingly higher than market.

A podium can always be beefed up. CF did that with the old Eatons box in downtown Vancouver when it re-tenanted with Nordstrom and added office floors above. Little-known fact: CF over-beefed the columns in the parkade below to accommodate additional structural loads, i.e. additional levels in...

Huh? What? How is this any different than what's been peddled for DECADES at the airport? You wonder why you have a golf course, mall and casino? Because businesses have already looked and said "No. Just no.". 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll check Liberty out. 👍 (Unless you'd like to take on a client and give it a go with my car? :D)

Hello, all. I hope it's ok to ask this kind of question on the forum. I'm seeking recommendations for an Edmonton-area auto detailer that can do a great job at ceramics and PPF. Looking to use a group that has great attention to detail, a stellar reputation, knows what it's doing, and treats...

The whole city is in a third world condition. Every single roadside looks like a garbage truck ran by with an open roof. It's the least attractive time of year for any newcomers to see. 🤢

I'm still partial to the original tower design versus... this.

Until I see an Imperial press release confirming a head office relocation with an attendant significant body count, I'm invoking skeptic mode upgraded to expert setting.

WRONG WRONG WRONG location for this stuff. It could be great product, who knows, but this built form is for the densifying the burbs, not under-densifying an urban core. Much higher density in that core location is the only thing defensible. My Gawd, next thing you know they'll be building...

I've heard of polishing a turd but you'd have to destroy all of the earth's resources to create enough polish to redeem that.... "thing".

I find this viewpoint somewhat puzzling. This isn't some Sherwood Park motel. A true downtown hotel would not need significant parking. You wouldn't be serving people who've driven in from Prince George. You'd be serving the type of guest that's flown into town.

Yeah sure, whatever. If you like suburban development downtown...
