I recall seeing some plans and drawings on this building. From what I remember, it had a sweet car-elevator underground parking system

Doubt that's the case anymore...

When you drive by on the Henday you get a sense of the size. It still looks like a prison though.

Unlike the 2 I'm working on, combined I think they would easily fit into one pod at the Remand.

Any fresh rumors on what may be happening with the Old Remand Centre? Personally, I think even a surface lot would be better than that concrete monstrosity

A great little write up on that Jasper Gates project on Buzz Buzz. I think that the bike wash station and storage room is a cool idea and should be a given for EVERY infill condo development.

^^Still think it's ugly and doesn't fit into the neighborhood. I do like that it's mixed use.

wasn't the plan for the city to switch the land they own as seen in the second rendering, for the park in front of Hotel Mac as seen in the first rendering?

^ not sure.


Only way I could see a tower of this size going up with the Arc (aka manu 2) looking more and more like its likely to go ahead would be commitment from a major hotel chain. Can't see the demand.
