Sounds like the land is currently pending with a German group, short conditional period as well.

Do they have a good track record of developing land they purchase?

I'm going off 3rd party information, so wouldn't be the trusted source on that question, but I have been told they have executed a student housing project in Kelowna...so that's something?

Curious if they got the City to agree to extend the rezoning or if it reverted back.

Well student housing would be great in this area.

It would be great for the area if this proceeds and with its proximity to MacEwan, Norquest and LRT, student housing makes good sense.

There still remains a bit of a gap between 104 and 108 streets. Hopefully that will start to fill in and some of the surface parking lots or old/underutilized buildings can be redeveloped.

Any further update on this potential deal?

 

[MacLac]

Hmmmmm…..perhaps the worm has turned? Ian, what are you hearing?

 

[Greenspace]

Here's hoping for a shit ton of student housing!

 

[archited]

Who bought it?

 

[MacLac]

That shit is above my pay grade.....lol

I wonder what the prospects are for actually repurposing the Massey-Ferguson Building at this point.

 

[archited]

I thought that it was on one of the historical registers but maybe I am wrong (just because the last development proposal group included it in their concept).

 

[Gronk!]

I assume it wasn't the Massey-Ferguson Building that was sold but the vast parking lot behind it?
