So with this, Phase I and II of the Parks, Lotus Park and the other residential project by the Parks, that's at least 2,000 people in the area by the end of the decade? That's great progress, not to mention what other projects start due to this momentum since this is probably the most active area in downtown now construction and interest wise.

Maybe more...

Is that a hint about the lot I think it is?

Ian is obviously referring to the 2 X Ice Towers he's putting in soon.......

Going back many years, our family used that surface lot at the south end of the property, because it helped service the building at the south end of the block, which back then had a sizeable medical focus.

I wonder what losing the service provided by that surface lot will mean for building at the south end of the block. Maybe it has its own u/g parking?

Any renders floating around?

There's UG parking in the Intact Building (building along Jasper Ave) and the red brick apartment building.

This section of 108 St is going to be unrecognizable in the span of a year lol, which is amazing.

And it's Westrich so it WILL get built

Nice to see almost an entire block of 108th street Redeveloped

Another surface parking lot bites the dust!

Renders look nice, however couldn't the rooftop space be larger? Mercury Block has almost half the roof accessible.

Or solar panels? One or the other

I don't hate it. But in this rendering it doesn't look like there is any retail (maybe IanO can correct me if I'm wrong), which would be a damn shame. I get it if it's not all CRUs on 108 due to lack of demand, but there should be some.

Corner CRU on Lotus, but after speaking with neighbouring retail owners, seeing the plight of others in the area to not add more and the opportunity for ground floor units that some prefer, it simply made sense. Live/work can be explored if folks wish, but the idea is to support MacLab's retail bays and push people to Jasper to backstop ALL of that struggling retail. Given the nice BLVD, it makes a lot of sense to have a more residential area versus commercial. There will be options and opportunities in the area, but our focus is residential for most of it.
