CALGARY | Mount Royal Village | 115 M / 377 FT | 36 Floors

Chadillaccc · #1 Posted **Mar 10, 2014, 6:57 PM**

This is the original design for the village, however, the design has since been altered. MRV 1 is currently under redevelopment, while MRV II is likely to begin this year. MRV II is the one while will include the large tower.

Current progress on the redevelopment and proposal.

I should do some digging around on this one. Someone mentioned recently they have submitted their DP, or that they are just about to.

Chadillaccc · #3 Posted **Mar 10, 2014, 7:48 PM**

Yeah I remember that too. It would be greatly appreciated if you could find any updated info about it. This will be a great project and possibly transformative for the area.

There was some news on the Calgary thread as to who the Grocer was going be. I can't recall the name, but some chain from Vancouver.

Nice fit for the area. The tower is ok.... kind of busy though. I'm sure it'll be changed a little, but not the height except if they want it taller of course!

The grocer is Urban Fare, part of the Overwaitea group.

Sweet I love Urban Fare.

Surrealplaces · #9 Posted **Mar 13, 2014, 6:40 PM**

Urban Fare will fit perfectly in there.

nice, I hope they build massive underground parking spaces there....

TallBob · #11 Posted **Mar 19, 2014, 5:11 AM**

The tower portion looks taller than 33 floors.... and hopefully it is!

Design-mind · #12 Posted **Mar 19, 2014, 6:37 PM**

I counted the side elevation and there is indeed 33 floors plus a mechanical.

Chadillaccc · #13 Posted **Mar 19, 2014, 7:27 PM**

This will be one of the best, if not the best development the Beltline has ever seen. I hope the tower is nice. Just the impact that the large-format retail will bring, and all of the new residences. I hope the redevelopment of the east block turns out nice too.

They've submitted their DP application. Design has changed supposedly but I haven't seen the redesign yet (hoping to have them in at an upcoming community association meeting to show it to us)

Hopefully they didn't change it too much. I was pretty happy with the design.

As per the DP that has been submitted (DP2014-0909), The official height and floors for the tower portion of this project are:

36 floors, and 114.96M | 377.2FT

Chadillaccc · #17 Posted **Mar 27, 2014, 11:48 PM**

I just died. Thank you Surreal!

This will be a landmark. 115 meters! The next tallest in the area is only 90 meters!

TallBob · #18 Posted **Mar 28, 2014, 6:23 AM**

That is pretty lofty for that area.... Great!!

RyLucky · #19 Posted **Mar 28, 2014, 5:59 PM**

So vital! It's really happening...

Deepstar · #20 Posted **Mar 28, 2014, 6:31 PM**

Mark, Vogue, Union Square II over 30 floors and now this one. It's seems like 30+ is the norm now for residential towers.
