Club Malibu University, I fondly remember those days going there to party. There is nothing worth saving in the interior of the building, the exterior made me think this was a classy night club when I first went.

That tracks, the building is ancient. It would be nice if they could gut and rebuild the interior to save the street-facing facade, but either way it's good to see the City is going to use it for something.

Interesting tidbit is that Ellement Consulting is the former occupant of the building that's in the location of Lilac Park by Westrich, so I'm guessing movement there is coming soon.
 
Edmonton exceeding housing supply targets
July 21, 2025

At the halfway point of its Housing Accelerator Fund agreement with the federal government, the City of Edmonton is meeting and exceeding expectations for growing housing supply.

The City’s Housing Accelerator Fund (HAF) agreement with the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) is contingent on achieving an overall housing supply target by November 2026. As of June 30 - a little over 50 per cent of the way through the agreement - the City is 75 per cent of the way to that target.

“Homebuilding in Edmonton is on track, not just to hit our numbers, but to help the city maintain its affordability while providing housing options for everyone,” said Christel Kjenner, Director, Housing Action Team. “All Edmontonians should be able to find the housing they need in our city, whether they’re renting an apartment, buying their first home, downsizing or in need of non-market affordable housing. That’s what we’re working toward.”

The City was initially allocated $175 million to complete 11 initiatives designed to increase overall housing supply and encourage the development of housing that the market may not provide on its own. CMHC announced earlier this year that Edmonton was one of 27 “top-performing” communities to receive additional HAF funds. The City will now receive an additional $17 million for an additional 500 units, bringing the total allocation to $192 million.

Key Facts
Housing Accelerator Fund Targets
To receive its full funding allocation of $192 million from the federal government, the City of Edmonton must meet building permit targets between November 2023 and November 2026. There is an overall housing supply target, as well as subtargets for different types of housing.

Net New Residential Dwelling Units (by approved building permit) from November 2023 to June 2025:
  • Total: 26,903 / 35,934 (75 per cent)
    • Transit-oriented development: 7,133 / 7,308 (98 per cent)
    • Missing middle: 10,575 / 7,758 (136 per cent)
    • Other mult-unit: 4,587 / 8,520 (54 per cent)
  • Of the total dwelling units, 870 are affordable housing. This represents 45 per cent of the subtarget of 1,940 dwelling units.

Lots of useless information in these, or at least lots of information with little to no context.

A one bedroom rental in Vancouver runs about $2,872 a month so Vancouver's lowly 4.1% year over year increase is in the range of another $118 a month.

A one bedroom rental in Edmonton runs about $1,359 a month so Edmonton's top of the chart 6.6% year over year increase is in the range of another $90per month.

Both are bad. Single moms don’t need any further financial strain and Edmonton better be doing everything it can to improve rental inventory.

We're among the only municipalities in Canada that are actually building at the rate people need us to, plus we've got local groups like Civida rapidly expanding the inventory of mixed-income and subsidized rental properties. Unfortunately that results in more people coming here because of the affordability we're working to protect, which increases the demand strain even further.

Suffering from success I suppose.
