Yeah ill ask for more info from the person who I know was present at the townhall but from what im hearing in real estate qualico in the new home building department is having a really strong 2024.

As someone who is searching for a high rise rental apartment for when my now listed place sells, the market supply is frustratingly low. We haven't even seen the student rental demand yet.

yup anything quick possession under 450 whether its single family, residential, multi family is getting scooped up in seconds and in most instances becoming multiple offers,

I'm really liking the exterior materials used on this tower. It's not stucco, which is great. The paneling should be the new norm. It doesn't scream cheap.

Super neat space in there, unlike anything in the city right now. The closest thing may be West Block.

This is turning out significantly nicer than I expected. Hope they start the next phase soon.

The future tower will fill in the gap beisde the mid-rise quite nicely from this angle!

While overall I still don't love the 'wall' that Stationlands forms (primarily due to the Epcor Tower's wide design), this is indeed turning out to be a very nice build. The materials work very well together, some unique spaces, all in all tremendous result. Can't wait for more!

Yup, and the new 'Roundhouse Park' they are building should bridge the gap between 103A Ave, the RAM and Chinatown quite nicely.

I have also heard that Yorkton, who owns Pacific Rim Mall, are looking at rezoning their parking lot at the west side of their property. Currently, it's Direct Control for towers, so they want to rezone to allow something around 4 - 8 storeys (midrise) as it makes more sense financially. If that happens, we should see Chinatown really start to change for the better as more people living in the area will help BIG TIME.

EPCOR Tower was never designed to “stand alone”…

The width seems somewhat similar to the Edmonton Tower but perhaps more noticeable due to the design, location, position and lack of taller buildings right nearby.

I agree the residential building is very nice and enhances it.

Desperately need to get the lot south developed and the joeys lot developed as well.
