Application for land use redesignation at 24 Ave SW in Mission, right beside the river. They're looking for a change to a high-density low-rise building with a maximum height of 26 metres (6 storeys) and a minimum of 14 units.

Saw the following Instagram Post, which I thought was a little comical. It seems to be residents at the building adjacent, facing 25 Ave SW. They're complaining about the height and density of the proposed building, despite living in a 5 storey building themselves... They reference "neighbourhood character" which is interesting given their own building, and the two giant apartment buildings opposite them. I don't agree that development-related concerns are always baseless, but this one is silly given that they live in Mission (a dense inner city neighbourhood) and are already living in a large apartment building themselves.

I saw the same post and rolled my eyes. There is a bit of this going on around here, that proposal we all liked faced off with an adjacent landowner. I'm surprised Mission hasn't had the same type of proposals as Sunnyside/Hillhurst (Kensington). Lots of properties ripe for renewal.

Have we seen this one yet? This looks like another Sarina projects that bookends Marda Loop at 33 and 14 Street - https://dmap.calgary.ca/?p=DP2026-02795

Been waiting for this since the land use on the corner went through. Hot damn! I'll take another Harrison, much better than the generic suburban stuff going almost everywhere else.
