I like it but, but agree the site planning looks like a resort which I think should feel denser so close to the urban core.

I like the stepped design Calgary has going around the river, adds layers to the skyline.

Phase 1 includes 11k sf of retail, this new phase prob just add a couple bays here and there. What Eau-Claire really needs is one or both of those mega projects to get going. Those will bring a lot more people away from only hanging out around the pathways, into the actual neighborhood.
