The truck in the background says Tent and Event rentals, so most likely something for Stampede.

Looks like a small tent for Stampede. Wonder if there might be a ground breaking ceremony or some sort of sales event.

No mention of public art in the article and nothing in the rendering. Wasn't this the site that was supposed to have the funky magpie statue?

Article says 27 storeys - so is it that or 24 ?
Regardless - I love it when projects like this start out of the woodwork - add another tower crane to the count soon!

TBH, I'd be happy with it being 6 floors, I'm looking forward to one less parking lot fronting 4th street. The 24 (or 27) floors is a bonus.

Pretty sure it's 24. The article also erroneously stated 4 St Lofts as 27 floors (it's 29)

I guess it wasn’t stampede related… tent is down and new fencing with renders up

Replacing a strip mall with housing = gentrification is quite the stretch!

Probably a tent dweller that just lost their favorite spot to shoot up.

I had a good laugh at this, but it’s quite unfortunate that there are people who come to conclusions like this regarding pro-density developments, especially with what was here before.

I'm waiting for the day when tearing down parking lots gets blasted as gentrification
I think we've already seen that re: David Parker lol.
