is there any active proposal for the east half of the parcel where the building is being demolished ?

No proposal as of yet. No DP's for anything recent.

New Marda Loop sign! I’m curious to see if it lights up at night.

Edit: city representative says it will be lit.

I like that they're putting a sign up for the Marda Loop entrance, but a sign with letters backlit against a black backdrop would have looked really nice. This looks a bit suburban mall-ish to me. Like they borrowed it from Crossiron Mills.

A shame that the sign design doesn’t somehow pay tribute to the history of the area/name.

Appreciate the Seton updates @O-tac I don’t get out that way very often, nice to see what’s happening.

New sidewalks they’re building on 19th Street NW. I’m in support of the project but they started in early September and haven’t even finished one side of the street yet with the northbound lane under 24/7 closure. Looks like the bike lane and another layer of the roadway needs to be poured.

And why are those tactile strips placed like that?

That looks terrible!

The quality seems a bit better than that photo of Marda Loop’s a while back. But the orientation makes zero sense.

Is this a location for a crosswalk pole or light standard? It looks to be right in the middle of the bike lane area.
