I think it's safe to assume that they have a new plan that we will see at some point. Likely 1-2 condo structures with retail on the ground level (I hope). I'm guessing only 5-6 floors, though, not 10-12.

Why do we need more condo units?

And for the huge surplus of condos in the Greens or Harbour Landing, there is a very limited supply of new quality ones in the inner city. On MLS there are zero new condos downtown over $300,000. 6 in Transition. Zero in Cathedral. Zero in General Hospital area. One in the Wascana Lake area. So if you have money and want modern in inner city Regina your options are pretty limited. |

TL;DR: Developers aren't going to under-build from what's allowed. |

It makes me wonder if they'll try to go big and get over 15 floors.

Limited supply caused Regina housing prices to rise in March: realtors association Good news Hopefully for the proposed condo |

https://imgur.com/VcR65Ah.png Here's Saskatoon for comparison https://imgur.com/UCw3KTk.png I understand that Saskatoon is growing faster and has about 70k more people in its CMA, but Saskatoon should not be building triple what Regina currently is. Especially when Regina only has 40k less people then Saskatoon within municipal boundaries and had a modest population growth from 2016-21. The housing starts between both municipalities is even more startling. However, the real problem is that 40% of houses being constructed are single-family detached house which I can only assume is being built at the edge of the city exacerbating the sprawl problem. Saskatoon in comparison has that share down to 24% (still not good enough imo). I really hope y'all can figure out your NIMBY problem because it would be great if Regina can get a construction boom like the rest of Canada (with much less single-family construction please). Especially since its near the half way mark of Calgary and Winnipeg who are also experiencing construction boom hopefully that can be some sort of catalyst for increased activity in the city. |

If they want to fix downtown, they have to deal with the homeless and clean up the crime/drugs/etc. |

We didn't do our downtown any favours when we switched all the one way streets to two ways; that moves traffic through the downtown faster, but doesn't encourage anyone to stay downtown. There have been lots of studies that show that. Our downtown is full of parking lots because Regina is car-centric first and everything else is secondary. |
