I believe that is the skating rink area.
It's being finished now.

Very reasonable right now actually.

We are going to do the same. Hit the lobby bar for some food and drink and enjoy a weekend downtown.

I had the fortune of getting a tour of the old Pendennis hotel (think UCAMA project) today. The new owners plan on completing the exterior, roof, windows, cladding etc. to ensure that it is weather tight and then will begin marketing it to potential tenants. The space is incredibly cool and full of character; the rooftop patio will be amazing. This along with Ken's project next door could be some of the most amazing space/views/patios/environments in the city.

I can't recall now - are they added any retail along 103 Ave in that parkade? I don't think so, right? There's spots that look like they could support it being added in.

^No retail in the parkade.

Wife says we are going for my birthday, that’s May. Hope it’s not one of those $2000 rooms. Oh ya we better book now. Oilers will be in the Stanley cup playoffs then!
