I'll be going to Kelowna on thursday, maybe I'll get some better ones.

kev_427 · #**627** Posted **Dec 20, 2011, 2:00 AM**

Forgot this one. Canada's first Carl's Jr.

Love seeing Kelowna getting more dense, though I hope they can figure out a solution to the traffic there, it's as bad as here at times.

Mind if I take a stab at some new photos of the new Landmark building? And the carls jr. is pretty cool, being its the first in Canada. It's just a block from my place, so i go there occasionally. Not the greatest burgers... And overpriced.

giallo · #**631** Posted **Dec 22, 2011, 1:38 AM**

^ Please do. I think some people forget what a 'landmark' building this is for Kelowna. An 18 storey office building is no joke wherever you go. It'll be a skyline changer for sure.

As for Carl's Jr., I'm not optimistic. I went there last summer, and couldn't believe what they're charging for a combo. $10-$11? Seriously? Carl's Jr. in Shanghai is close to half that for the exact same thing. For that price, I'd just go to Fat Burger down the road. It's way better anyway.

Xelebes · #**632** Posted **Dec 22, 2011, 2:47 AM**

Really? Fatburger is nothing to write home about either. Carls Jr. must be real underwhelming.

giallo · #**633** Posted **Dec 22, 2011, 4:46 AM**

CJ's would be ok it had standard fast food prices. Strangely, it charges 'gourmet' burger prices for a pretty underwhelming product.

As for Fatburger, people either like it or don't. I happen to think it's pretty good for a burger chain.

wisla_krakow · #**634** Posted **Dec 23, 2011, 4:36 AM**

the five guys in west kelowna is actually pretty damn unreal, considering the $7 burger, $12 combo price.
the landmark building is really starting to look like something imposing. seems to be nearing or at the 10th floor already.

Chadillaccc · #**635** Posted **Dec 23, 2011, 7:29 AM**

Wow, the Landmark is goin up really slow eh?

kev_427 · #**636** Posted **Dec 26, 2011, 8:12 PM**

Pics from Thursday.

giallo · #**637** Posted **Dec 27, 2011, 3:01 AM**

Thanks for the update, kev.

Ayreonaut · #**638** Posted **Dec 27, 2011, 4:15 AM**

I didn't mind Carl's Jr. It reminds me of BK but better quality. Of course, I do prefer Fatburger and Five Guys (the best chain burger I've had), but they aren't fast food (they're fast casual).

I didn't actually know the Okanagan had a Five Guys. When did it open?

GORDBO · #**639** Posted **Dec 27, 2011, 5:45 AM**

Just wondering if anyone knows, sq. footage of Lanmark 6. Anchor tenants,
and % of space leased.

No kidding. For some reason it seems to be going up at about half the speed of most projects.
