Nice to see that St. Catharines is finally getting into the glass condo's. The only residential high rises I see there are concrete commie block apartments.

The sales office of this project was recently installed on site. Just a matter of time before construction begins. Some good looking low-rises and mid-rises popping in Quebec City these days!

2 infill proposals in Vancouver. One got rejected by the urban design panel, the other approved. Guess which one?

1616 W 7th Ave

by Built Form

6311 Cambie St

Chadillaccc · #**3848** Posted **Nov 11, 2011, 6:53 PM**

Not sure, but I really hope the first one got approved cause it is awesome! Love the glass elevator concept. But both are quite nice for their respective areas, I hope both go ahead in one form or another

I'm pretty sure he finally got the message and left. I have no doubt that we will see him again though :S

I sincerely hope the second. It has good street vibe, whereas the 1st one is a deformed monster with zero street friendliness.

yaletown_fella · #**3851** Posted **Nov 11, 2011, 7:18 PM**

I prefer the first considering the location.

Dwils01 · #**3852** Posted **Nov 11, 2011, 10:45 PM**

I like the second one better.
The first would look better if it wasn't so bare at the top. I thinks it needs a little more going on up there.

Too bad SSP doesnt have moderators approving new users. CPTDB (Canadian Public Transit Discussion Board) has that to weed out the various lboy's and keep it civilized

Here is one from Waterloo that is a couple months old. I think it is 40-60% sold out right now.

RED Condos. At King St. & Allen St.

Yeah, while the invocation of champagne as a luxury item is cheezy and cliche, it's also rationalized by the fact that it's being built on Champagne Avenue South.

Due to the local NIMBYs' petition (wich has been signed by more than a thousand people), this project is now cancelled.

The podium looks decent though.

It might not be as beautiful as Shangri-La on University Ave., but as a resident I'd rather have the copious outdoor space provided by the wrap around baclonies. In other words, from an aesthetic perspective, I'd rather look at something smooth and sleek like Shangri-La. Meanwhile, I'd rather live in something like 1000 Bay.

New 5,000-6,000 seat baseball stadium proposed for Goose Village (corner of Bridge and Mill). Really close to the Victoria Bridge. Montreal does not have any park/stadium/field built specifically for baseball.

Being a huge baseball fan, I'll definitely attend some games. Sure it's not MLB, but it would still be a fairly high-caliber.. Hopefully we'll get at least a AA team or something.
