This is off topic, but I just realized something. Did they use a picture of Macewan's business school under construction on this page? I spent a while looking for this mysterious new and massive residential building right by Macewan before it finally clicked lol"Round 1 was oversubscribed with more applications received than funding available. All available funding for this program has been tentatively allocated."
I hope the projects will be announced soon. Maybe some emails to council to allocate more money to this program?

I get that, I'm just talking about the picture itself. Like, if it is the school of business, I just think it's funny they chose to use a picture of a non-residential building to represent this program lol. It's a really small thing, I just wanted to know if I was out to lunch with my guess.We won't know which projects made the cut until agreements are finalized. I'm not sure how long that will be.
I guess the city is committed to working with all of the applicants to ensure their projects come to fruition; even those that don’t receive funding. This includes connecting them with other programs that may be of assistance.

That's very fair. I wasn't judging either way, I was just curious if I had the right buildingI guess the city decided since this is a program largely targeting students that they opted for pic of university construction/growth in our downtownish area.
The next 30mil we budget should go towards more grants. Clearly demand. Let’s capture it
Would that be the project that we couldn't decide if it was Westrich or Cidex or whoever was working on it?MacEwan and NAIT should be getting money for Student housing. MacEwan told me someone is building north of the campus.
