I really enjoyed your vision of what Parcel 4 + Rail Side may look like in the future..(added it here)...

yep, very cool - plus will bring cohesion to that part of downtown, which oftentimes feels disconnected from downtown even though it is officially a part of the downtown area
|
At the last public consult they did the plan appears to have shifted from high rises to 5-7 story buildings, with retail on bottom and then residences above.

From what I understood, each building will be designed by a different firm, but will all follow similar guidelines, and will be built in phases. So the whole thing won't be built at once, rather in smaller chunks... I think the info is online somewhere, I'll try to find it...

Is this actually moving ahead with concrete plans? Or is it highly conceptual RFP type shit?
