That site isn't very good, neither Maynards nor Richards are on official hold, Richards can't proceed until the current lease is up. They are missing James which is on hold though. Jameson is back online and has been for about a month now. The Pier I'm pretty sure is active as well. And Cosmo never even had sales start so it's can't be delayed, and it's going ahead very shortly as well.
Looks like a site put together by real estate bears. Would look better if they did their homework.
noticed that maynard recently chopped prices (start at 360k), which would seem to signal a desire to move forward.
The 1bds are standard size, the 2bds would be standard size if it weren't for the den, so with a den included that sqftage is kinda small but not unusual. The psf is pretty reasonable though.
One last post before bed, I'm getting overworked lately.
1372 Seymour is going back for reapproval pending some changes.
They have increased the height from 33storeys (310ft) to 35storeys (336ft), the podium has also increased in height from 67ft to 70ft (same 7 storeys). Interstingly with the 2 extra floors the fsr stays the same at 6.7 and the project only increased to 240,101sqft from 239,947sqft. The new design looks better too. I've included links to the pdfs, d/l them first as they are large (~3mb each).
looks like the 1st of the "City/Province Social and Supportive Housing Partnership" projects is a go as "Funding for 525 Abbott Street was announced by the Province on March 17, 2009."
I actually don't like that change to Robson street, i feel they should keep the two lanes, even if it is just for buses (or pedestrians). I seems boring to me. it is kind of strange to have your main shopping street have a roadblock in the middle of it.
The tarps have come off The Keg in Yaletown - looks like a roof deck... Also, the windows for the restaurant are slightly smaller than the exitsng opening - so there is a heavy frame around each window.
Will look odd compared to the windows for the Bank of Montreal on the other sde of the building.
