Do we know when the second tower and the podium will break ground? Or are those still on the agenda for MacLab at all?

Last I heard, they were working on the utility upgrades for the second tower, which were significant. My understanding is that the first tower didn't require as much. There is also the entrance to the LRT on the north side of Jasper that is supposed to be re-done, I believe.

It's definitely still on the agenda. The Infill Infrastructure Fund has an unspecified project (Project 05) that has over 450 units. The only thing even close to that sort of project in the area shown is the Parks Phase II.

Too bad we didn’t know someone on here that could detail all of those “numbered” projects that had no “titles.” Hmmmmmm……..who do we know…..who do we know?
 
I mentioned this on August 5, 2025:

I am not surprised at all, the building itself looks to be complete, by itself. I'm not sure how serious the developer is in building the second phase but it does look like they set it up to walk away if necessary.
From my experience, this is never a good sign in the Edmonton market.

Well I hope that something does happen sooner than later. Perhaps with lotus and lilac both being under construction right now and if the construction moves forward on the old Funeral Home area and additionally the next big NorQuest expansion that might help with the movements on this development.

They also got the 2021 Construction Grant for this site and they risk an agreement breach if they don't finish the second tower, just unsure of how long they have to get that done though.

The site just by Westrich's G4 and the proposed Grandin 2 tower? Is that actually moving forward still?
 
A very unscientific bit of evidence in terms of the if/when phase 2 will start - I downloaded a list of all the available suites from the Parks website into Excel. Current availability is as follows: 2 bachelor suites, 48 one bedroom suites, 80 two bedroom suites and 9 three bedroom suites for a total of 139 available suites. I can't remember how many suites are in phase 1 - 350 or so? That would put it at about 40% vacant. Not great news in terms a sooner rather than later start for phase 2.
Again just the results of my unscientific investigation here, so take with a grain of salt.
