I thought for a second this was a rendering. It's turning out very nice, but I really dislike how they did the ramp onto the island, seems such an afterthought in the design.

New restaurant/office development planned along Riverwalk in Calgary's East Village
BY MARIO TONEGUZZI, CALGARY HERALD SEPTEMBER 10, 2014 10:25 AM

CALGARY - Village-style retail space with restaurants along the ground level and unique office space above is planned along the RiverWalk area near the Bow River in the East Village neighbourhood.

Calgary Municipal Land Corporation announced Wednesday that the development on 10,872 square feet of land by Calgary’s XYC Design + Development will take place immediately east of the historic Simmons Building.



Kate MacGregor, president of XYC Design + Development, who also works as an architectural designer with nArchitects in New York City, said the M2 parcel is “a highly visible site, and even though it’s small, it will have a huge presence in East Village.”

You're allowed to ask 1 question about the XYC development

[Chadillaccc]

Found high res renders of the XYC project

If the river were that high as in the render, that'd be the last place I'd want to eat.

Even mounties love this project.

wowowowowow

East Village is going to be a m a z i n g in ten years. It's making the rest of downtown look bland what with the library, NMC, this, Riverwalk, etc.

I think these might be the most photorealistic renderings Ive ever seen, both the buildings and the people

I was just thinking the same thing. Except for the lady with the bike in the last photo. She's got freakishly large hands.

Solid little project. Almost makes up for this messed up storm...almost.

EV has the potential to become the most well designed neighbourhood in the country. I love the variety. Seems like there's been more and more modern European influence on our newer projects which is definitely a huge plus.

There must be units left, they still haven't even started construction yet for some reason. I hope now that the intro phase of EV has basically passed, we'll see the momentum/pace pick up.
