What the unholy hell is that? Another Edmonton architect spewing out more banjo and washboard equivalents?

My guess is 101st and maybe Ellerslie area.

This is the one north of MacEwan on 105 and 105.

104 st looks just awful with those faux brick podiums and the towers above...just eww. From street level there's just no interest created between the brick podiums and towers above and you can tell people must hate our warehouse district as well because the market is just empty

And just to be VERY clear. This was sarcasm. I love warehouse district. Fox podiums are welcomed in my opinion. There's some great streets here in Dublin that have the same kind of vibe as 104st with all the brick, but they don't have the towers above.

Even better. They could combine it with the Welcome to Edmonton signs. "Here's what you can expect."

Where is Leduc. Architect is Red Deer with small office in Calgary. Thankfully no Edmonton designer involved in that 🞵🞵🞵🞵 design.

^^^ Budget hotel. Stacked rail cars? Might be appropriate for a site that was, afteral, once a railyard.
