[You Need A Thneed]

Metropolitan - 430 residential units.

[Bigtime]

Not technically u/c or even being marketed (that I am aware of) but there is the Palfreyville condo planned for the lots across the street from Vendome in Sunnyside. Construction fencing is up around the lots for it.

[Spring2008]

Good idea for a thread.

Mark - 274 units
Avenue(1&2)- 319 units
Ven - 115 units

I believe Park Point is closer to 600 units

[Jimby]

Telus Sky, Metropolitan, and Aura aren't condominiums. A better title would be apartment or multi-family construction. Condominium only refers to the type of ownership not to the type of dwelling.

Good point. What I meant to say was residential development.

[Surrealplaces]

Great idea for a thread.

I'm not sure if Brentwood counts as TOD, but we have the C and D towers of University City u/c

As a suggestion, maybe we could have the running total beside the title for each section

ie... Centre City: XX Units U/C - 3344

[Spring2008]

Evolution is 203 units(Fuze plus mid-rise) + 284 units at Pulse

[fusili]

That's the plan. Just want to get more hard numbers before I put in totals.

[Spring2008]

Bridgeland:
Steps - 122 units
Bridgeland Crossings 1 - 151 units
Bridgeland Crossings 2 - 143 units
Park43 - 43 units
Liftt - 39 units
Einstein 2 ?
Bridgeland Hill?

[H.E.Pennypacker]

Bridgeland Hill is 100 units IIRC

[Surrealplaces]

Looks good Fusili. :cool:

Outlook is 175 units.

[fusili]

Anybody know the unit counts in the Aura towers or either Bentall Kennedy rental towers?

[MichaelS]

Anybody know the unit counts in the Aura towers or either Bentall Kennedy rental towers?

Aura 1 is 154 units, Aura 2 is 158.

[MasterG]

Cidex / West Village towers is 584 I believe

[MichaelS]

Bridgeland Hill is 100 units IIRC

101 to be precise.

[Spring2008]

Few more Kensington area(hillhurst/sunnyside)

Ezra on The Park - 100 units
Lido - 60 units
The Kensington - 77 units

[Spring2008]

Should we include Mission, Lower Mount Royal, Bankview, South Calgary etc?

I'd imagine u just want larger projects, 20+ units? Be way too hard to track all the smaller projects going up.

[Spring2008]

Avli - 70 units
Torode Inglewood ~ 50 units

[fusili]

That sounds like a good cut off point, or maybe 50 units. It'll be too hard to track all the small projects in places like Bankview.

[Spring2008]

^50 sounds good boss, but if they're more well known I'll try listing them anyways. Bankview/South Calgary/Altadore prob have the most infill projects in the city u/c, most of which we'll never even come close to finding info on as they're smaller scale, but here are a few more well known on the go:

Einstein 1 - 51 units
Glas(21 units) which apparently just started construction
The Alexander (17 units) believe this is u/c now too.

[RyLucky]

Great idea, and thanks for being so well organized.

[Allan83]

According to the WAM site the 10th Ave project with have 450 units and 9th Ave will have 1800. :stunned:


This thread really puts things into perspective. Look at what’s happening within a 2 or 3 block radius of the Coop.

Metropolitan- 430 units
Aura 2- 154 units
Aura 1- 158 units
Mark- 274 units
WAM on 10th - 450
WAM on 9th – 1800
West Village Towers - 584
Qualex across 10th from Coop - ?

4000+ units?

[Spring2008]

Some Mission:

Tela (started site prep) - 51
District (u/c) - 59
The River - 39
Mission34 - 47
Torode's project on 17th av and centre st ~50 units
I believe Tribecca was almost 100 units but now complete. Good boost for the area though.

[Spring2008]

Ten Mount Royal - 47

The Block and Uno (recent completions) brought another 130 units to LMR.

That co-op is already way too busy

[Sands]

one suggestion, can we add estimated completion year along with project? that way we can track how many units come to the market every year.

The Safeway is way busier but once these are up, it'll be the same long lineups... :(

Good thing there are a few new grocery stores planned around downtown to accommodate this ;)

[flipstah]

Anyone know what they're building on 11th Ave, close to the Beltline Co-op? Looks like a mega complex to me.

[Spring2008]

Ya, it looks massive already. It's called Metropolitan, 13 floors and ~435units.

Thanks! Looks to be residential according to SSP. I wonder if it'll anchor a major retail chain (grocery?).

[Spring2008]

Iirc mostly retail at grade, prob smaller bays. I don't think these are properly configured for anchors.

[Allan83]

There’s a grocery store planed for the podium of West Village Towers (not in West Village) on the other side of the tracks, on the old Stampede Pontiac site.

Is that where that Enterprise lot is, across from Metro Ford?

North of Metro Ford and west of Enterprise car rental.

[fusili]

Updated w Maple Apartments (or what ever it is called).

[Spring2008]

Keep it going Beltline! Would be a good density boost to see a mega project get going in The Beltline. Now that First South is dead, think it's time for a 4-5 tower mixed-use development there.

Really hoping for that in Mount Royal Village.

[*Stardust*]

Really hoping for that in Mount Royal Village.

That's what I thought as well. I heard now the third level of retail at MRV is now offices. Plus, isn't that a small floor plate for a movie theatre?

[mersar]

Correct, MRV West is only office and retail, no theatre. It was in the original plan but didn't come together.

[*Stardust*]

Correct, MRV West is only office and retail, no theatre. It was in the original plan but didn't come together.

That's sad! I would have been a 5 minute walk to the movies.
Here is hoping the old First South site gets one

[Spring2008]

Dare I say a new theatre in the Beltline would be busier than the new one going in the Eau-Claire redevelopment project. Way more and denser areas to draw from to the south of the tracks.

Who can we email to make this happen? As much as I love Beltline, it's missing a lot of amenities. Movie theatre being one!

[Spring2008]

I'm thinking Beltline Planning Group, Victoria Park BRZ, Evan Woolley, Nenshi.

[Full Mountain]

I'm thinking Beltline Planning Group, Victoria Park BRZ, Evan Woolley, Nenshi.

Those groups/folks don't have any power over a private development, and putting a zoning in place requiring one would be an unfortunate way of achieving it. If one was so inclined they could start their own business to open one. :shrug:

I think it would be really busy too. I'm not in the development business, but it must all come down to economics. The space the theater would require might not make it economically feasible in an area like the Beltline, even if it was really busy.

+1. You can't just plop a movie theater. What if there's no demand for a theater in Beltline?

Eau Claire had IMAX for downtown core and that was a dud.

[Spring2008]

The Eau-Claire theatres are outdated, the new ones in the redevelopment project will be a bigger draw.

Beltline does have higher traffice evenings and weekends, which is when most people go to movies. Eau-Claire is still more of a workout crowd after hours.

Was thinking the Eau-Claire could draw from NoBow communities, a Beltline theatre could draw from SoBow communities.

[Surrealplaces]

I'd love to see theatres in the Beltline. I guess we'll just hope :)

[fusili]

Anybody think of anything that has started construction that we can add to the list?

Hi Fusili, you can add 207 units under proposed for the Beltline (Genco 1108)

Updated. Thanks.

[flipstah]

Orchard is starting up sale in November. :happybirthday:

[fusili]

Updated to add Lido, the Kensington and Mission 34 under construction. Will eventually get total U/C for inner city. Anyone have any updates on those?

Will wait on WAM on 10th the get their BP released before that gets added as well.

Mission 34 had their ground-breaking ceremony a couple of weeks ago but so far I haven't seen any actual ground being broken. Maybe today's the day?

You could add Tela to the list. It is now underway in Mission. - sorry I didn't read page one first, I see you already have Tela!

[fusili]

I saw Caisson drills at Smith yesterday, so I am adding it to the list.

Anyone know if WAM on 10th is U/C yet? Hard to tell until there is a crane.

If it is, I will add it to the list. Funny, I walk by there every day, but I am always looking up at Mark and forget to look at WAM.

Ya, WAM's u/c as is Torode's project in Inglewood, and Ten Mount Royal at 47units.

How many units for Torode in Inglewood?

[UofC.engineer]

Sarina Homes project in Inglewood is U/C, it has reached ground level. I believe it is only 19 units, I'm not sure if it's worth adding to the list, just figured I'd mention it.

Can confirm there is a full tower crane at WAM on 10th, yes

Alright everyone, let's try and update this thread. Everyone take a look at the first page and see if there are any updates needed.

Step in Bridgeland is dead :(

Proposed for Crescent Heights:
Minto development - unknown amount of units

[CalgaryAlex]

Proposed in Mission: Scollen House, 52 units.

Edit: You can also add Strategic's "ONE" project to the Beltline section, 227 rental units proposed

And i.d. in Inglewood, but that only has 19 units.

[fusili]

Thanks guys.

Anyone know what the unit count for the Royal is?

[dazzlingdave88]

Einstein 2 in Bridgeland is now called V & V

Lido, Aura I and Smith(?) are all complete.

223 units, it's u/c now

[dazzlingdave88]

Aura I is complete, but Smith and Lido are still holes in the ground.

Correct....my bad, I was thinking of the Pixel.

I found some info on some other units.

V & V - 82 units
BCIMC (New Generation) - 218 units (I got this from its thread)
Torode Inglewood - 54 units

One to add to Eau Claire?
Parkside - 302 units

BuzzBuzzHome's Telus Sky page says 326 units.

[Spring2008]

Parkside is 361 units including the phase they launched this spring. Just got an email saying 335 out of 361 units sold. You'd think at 93% sold they'd be u/c by now but i suppose it's the same situation as Verve unfortunately. Using site as a staging area until u/c tower complete.

[Spring2008]

This census should see minimal Beltline growth with only Alura and Aura 1 hitting the market, should push the Beltline to about 22k.

Going forward, 3,375 units u/c in the Beltline * 1.4 per household = 4,725 new residents, minus vacancy allowance of 10% = ~4,250 new residents which should easily push the Beltline population above 26k over the next few years.

Then we have a good couple dozen tower proposals in the works that should easily push the Beltline above 30k over the midterm.

Yup. This year we should only see an increase from Aura I, I can't think of anything else that got occupancies this year (Drake maybe). But next year, we will have Guardian 1, Mark, Metropolitan, Park and Aura 2 to add, so about 1300 more units.

I suppose you could count the Mustard seed too. I'm not sure how transitional housing works for a census.

New Generation rental might also squeak into next year's census.

[Spring2008]

Alura will be reflected on this census too since they started move-ins ~june of last yr.

[fusili]

I thought the seed was occupied for last years census. I could be wrong. They count as population as well. The DI has a bunch of residents who count on the census as well if I am not mistaken.

[UofC.engineer]

Minto in bridgeland - 181 units. Construction won't start until 2017.

[Spring2008]

Idk Minto Bridgeland has hoarding aroudn it, thought they were aiming to launch this fall?

Park Point tower 1 u/c now, another 288 units for the Beltline. ~3,700 Beltline, ~5,400 City Centre units u/c and/or currently being occupied at the moment. Unprecedented amount of smaller infill projects happening across the inner-city too.

[WhipperSnapper]

Minto builds often without presales.

[NatalieD]

Radius by Bucci - 201 units - Late 2018 Possession

[speedog]

District has tentative move-ins scheduled for November 28 but my suspicions are that they will miss that date. Fourth floor suites are pretty much ready to go.

[Surrealplaces]

Radius by Bucci - 201 units - Late 2018 Possession

Any idea if that one will be starting soon?

Looks like you have Park Point at 600 units, only tower one is u/c @ 288 units.

Has Parkside (~360 units) or Verve (291 units) started? Things have really slowed down around here.

I don't think it has, but should be soon, and N3 with its 167 units should be soon too. :)

[Chadillaccc]

I thought Parkside was under site prep now? A good 70% of the total units (including the two buildings that haven't even launched yet) have sold. Should be ready to go.

I think Parkside was ~90% sold after the first week - launched during the good old days before the oil collapse. Not sure what's taking so long. They were ripping out the concrete and doing some underground utility work awhile back. Haven't been by for a couple weeks, wonder if drilling started?

[Spring2008]

I don't think it has, but should be soon, and N3 with its 167 units should be soon too. :)

Could be this month, mentions Nov start below (from my inbox)

[Surrealplaces]

I would not be the least bit surprised to see N3 go this month. They have the sales, and they have applied for their BP, it's a good possibility.

[Spring2008]

Drilling starting at N3 - can add another 167 units to the list with over 5,500 units u/c or being occupied within the City Centre at the moment.

Parkside, Verve, and Marriott Res Tower are all undergoing site prep, which will add another ~1,000 units totaling 6,500 u/c units in the City Centre, or close to 10,000 new residents.

If only we had this pace going all the time.
