Here's hoping.

Gronk can take a seat at the children's table at the next public hearing. His costume makes him the chairman of it.

Neither! The new tower’s podium is already built…..3 floors already exist. I say the “construction crane” goes UP early next year

If this is 37 stories, I’m interested in how it’ll be visible from the different skyline angles. Should look amazing from north and east.

I think it will be 37 storeys in total including the podium that is already built. @Avenuer could let us know if the building permit has been applied for.

 

[MacLac]

I thought we determined that it was going to be 43-44 storeys with existing podium?

 

[archited]

I think that there was talk at one time of being 39 storeys in total and then someone saw a development permit that said 37 storeys. Does that include the existing podium -- I believe so,

Park looks almost complete.

Looks like this will probably be complete before Warehouse Park.

Nope…..pretty sure the last iteration was bumped up to 458 units and 37 + podium

Of course it will, a lot smaller and much less excavation, earthmoving required given it's being built on top of the existing parkade.

The Switch, a 285-unit rental project by Vancouver-based Qualico Properties adjacent to Rogers Place in Edmonton’s downtown ICE District, is close to lease up and, according to Deol, is “performing quite well.”

I missed the part of "Close to lease up." However, could have sworn it has 258 units rather than the "285" listed in the article...

https://switchyeg.securecafe.com/onlineleasing/the-switch/floorplans = at 75.5% leased and/or "stabilized" as some experts like to use.

You'd think that the editor of Western Investor would know that Qualico Properties is Winnipeg based corporately and Edmonton/Calgary based operationally, not "Vancouver based".

I rode my bike over to the park gate near the Museum to see the progress and a worker told me I would have to wait until tomorrow (to ride through).

So the public plaza area should be open tomorrow!
