"Connect Tower", not "Connect Centre": https://www.avisonyoung.ca/properties/10020-101a-avenue-edmonton-lease
(Incidentally, I keep forgetting what the "Connect Centre" is until I come to this forum periodically -- it's not exactly a visible or memorable name, but I digress.)

Edmonton Downtown office vacancy finally breaks, but it might not last

With Downtown office vacancy coming down, and the city's housing inventory on the rise, Edmonton's real estate is in a strong place, experts say

It seems to have stabilized, only slightly above the national average, which I suppose is good news.Edmonton Downtown office vacancy finally breaks, but it might not last

If the article is correct that much the vacancy is concentrated in some older buildings, I wonder what the owners of those buildings are waiting for. Some miracle?
It would probably then be better for everyone if they repurposed some of these buildings.

That street has the craziest camber at that intersection. Curious how they fix it.

Too bad they took out those cedars on the east side of 106 street

Wow, I guess we are basically starting from scatch again on the tree front.
Interesting to see the sidewalk in relation to the trees on the east side of the street - the trees are right in the middle of an already undersized, sidewalk. Can you imagine being in a mobility device trying to navigate that or even with a stroller. Can't even walk side by side.
It's so comical to hear about a war on cars when we built active transportation like that. But if we had to do that sidewalk properly and perhaps take the steet space from parked cars, it's bloody murder.

Why would we be expanding that sidewalk, I could hear some people say - "I never see anybody walking on that sidewalk".
Geez, I wonder why.
