The Oilers playoff run had a lot of fans staying there and walking.

Not really. The multifamily inventory goes in cycles. You also have to split 'apartment condos' into various categories to get a real snapshot of what type of units are moving.

That said, we need to continue to work on the perception vs. reality piece here and continue to push for more active storefronts and new development.

95/Jasper will help a lot

Alldritt will help a lot

Artist Tower will help a lot

The new Nook Cafe on 97st/101A will be a community cornerstone IMO.

What needs to happen is development, period. Prem took a big 🞵🞵🞵🞵🞵🞵 but I'm afraid he is a number of years too early.

Five Oaks tower

Great pics, man ICE District is going to be awesome. The Five Oaks building looks really good too, especially the solar panel wall (love the white strips to break it up).

Kevin_foster · #**8137** Posted **Aug 24, 2017, 12:00 AM**

I'm probably one of the outliers.... but as much as I love creativity in providing sustainable power, the solar wall looks pretty ugly compared to the rest of the building.

But I understand their intent.

Urban recluse · #**8138** Posted **Aug 24, 2017, 12:43 AM**

I agree, that side is unsightly.

it's right on the property line so code dictates a blank wall with no windows. this is a pretty decent treatment/solution for that.

Respectfully disagree. Function over form.

But barely.
