Because it is. The 105th sidewalk should be top priority to finish and get opened ASAP. Watch it be July by the time it’s open…
IMO, the city has two speeds when it comes to construction, slow and slower. I just always hope it is not the latter.
 
I went by the other day and felt a bit better about how this is coming along. There seems to be some progress.

Maybe we will have a nice downtown (again), after all the years of seemingly endless and disruptive construction all over are finally done.

I am trying to be hopeful now.
 

Project update - May 2025​

Due to the warmer weather, construction on Year 2 for Beaver Hills House Park and Michael Phair Park Renewal began sooner than expected. Construction started again in May 2025 and is expected to wrap up in fall 2025.

During 2025, a number of construction activities will take place:

  • Site grading and paving stone installation throughout both park sites.
  • Installation of the new playground in Beaver Hills House Park.
  • Installation of a new pet relief area in Beaver Hills House Park.
  • Completion of the amphitheatre in the centre of Beaver Hills House Park.
  • Completion of the new washroom building in Beaver Hills House Park.
  • New artwork in Beaver Hills House Park.
  • Installation of the new bouldering wall in the northeast corner of Beaver Hills House Park.
  • Construction of the busking stage in Michael Phair Park.
  • Completion of the Low Impact Development (soil cells) in the boulevard along 105 Street.
  • New site furniture, waste receptacles, bike racks and signage throughout both park sites.
  • Installation of lighting infrastructure throughout both park sites.
  • Installation of trees, shrubs, perennials, mulch, and sod throughout both park sites.
Please note, the pedestrian walkway along Jasper Avenue will be closed again during construction to allow for the removal of the temporary asphalt and the placement of the new paving stones. The pedestrian walkway along 105 Street will remain closed until late summer 2025. The east lane of 105 Street will close for a short period of time in June. Please follow all signage and crew direction in this active construction space.
