Red Deer Construction
 

I feel like, since the city will be surpassing a population of 100 000 this year, that Red Deer deserves a thread of its own. Hopefully in the "sticky" section.

I couldn't find any current developments ongoing in Red Deer right now, but I found the Greater Downtown Action Plan which, having been to Red Deer this summer, seems to be moving along very well.

This is the concept drawing of the Riverlands Area.

Horribly suburban, but just found a proposal by Colliers for this:

Location: 6702 & 6712 Golden West Avenue, Red Deer

CBC has announced on their twitter feed that the AB Government is expanding the Red Deer Hospital with two new surgery rooms. One is obstetrics and the other is emergency obstetrics.

Can't wait until the downtown revitalization project gets going, I'll be disappointed if the only construction consists of low/mid rises.

Great, just what we need, more tanning salons and dentist offices.

Red Deer finally has a diagram!

Awesome! :worship: Are you going to do the Checkmate Court building?

No, it's a bit too hideous and wonky for my limited skills. I wouldn't be able to get the proportions right. However, I am going to request that the height of Executive Place be corrected from 44 meters to 48 meters, and I'll edit my diagram accordingly.

Soon it will have more diagrams than Edmonton ;). Very cool to see someone tackling the non Calgary/Edmonton Alberta stuff. :tup:

Lol no problem. I'll see what I can do about Lethbridge too. If I can manage to get all the buildings, Lethbridge will have the third largest diagram in the province with 7 buildings, all completed.

That'll be awesome... If we ever get around to even proposing anything other than the three we currently have :shrug:

I'm not sure I follow... Edmonton has nearly 40 drawings while Red Deer could at most have 5 or 6? Maybe in the next 10-20 years there will be some new high rise development, but I don't think there will be enough to exceed Edmonton.

It was clearly a joke, hence the winky face in his post.

Hello,

I have been living in Red Deer for a few years now, I'll try to take pictures of any new projects or post any updates when they are available.

Since Executive Place (Now called Stantec Executive Place) has been built the tower is slowly taking in tenents, there is now another business setting up shop in the bottom. I wish there was another coffee shop at the corner retail section in the bottom, though there is already lots of those in the core. I honestly think that it's going to be a while before we get another building like Executive Place being built in Red Deer. For now, there is other low rise office buildings being built in Gasoline Alley and elsewhere.

Yeah, it'll be nice to have a good place to have coffee downtown someday.

The Advocate reports that the Saputo facility in Downtown Red Deer is planning on a adding a new addition. I can't find any renderings of the building, just that it will be 35 meters tall, with a 23 meter tower. Not sure if that means it will be an actual building and not just an antenna of some kind. However the square footage has been clocked at 21,075 square feet according to the Advocate. http://www.reddeeradvocate.com/busin...243967881.html

CBC Radio One is reporting that the courthouse in Red Deer is having to moving the traffic court to the Red Deer Lodge due to the backlog there. They are calling for a larger courthouse there with at least 16 courtrooms. The Red Deer courthouse has apparently been undersized for at least 20 years after they closed the Lacombe and Innisfail courthouses in 1991.

Sorry off topic, but does anyone else think the title of this thread sounds like a construction company?

Lol no, I don't think so.

Just sounds weird when I read it in my head.

Red Deer Construction co is what it sounds like to me.

Anyways, does red deer having an projects over 12 floors?

I'd be curious to see what kind of projects would be built or planned in Alberta's third largest city.
