God this thing is massive. The solid wall right up to Cambie is pretty major, and goes uninterrupted for most of that block, it will be pretty impressive (esp. considering podiums in this city are usually really small and even broken up. This is a solid wall as a base for towers continuous down the road

Thanks.
I realized that the height of the crane also shows there's a ways to go.

I biked past the other day. It's great to finally see a tower going up at Oakridge. Crazy that this one will be dwarfed by many of the next to come up.

Are there 13 cranes (crane count spreadsheet) or 12?

Thanks so much for the update, Lexus.

Short 10 second drone from Oakridge, clearly can count the 12 cranes

From above back in June. It's going to be quite the cluster once completed.

inside

32 units built in 1985.

26 units needed for 80% threshold for winding up strata and building sale.
ref gov.bc.ca strata-housing/termination 80percent

Wonder how many want to sell... others holding out for more $??

That's nice inside - enclosed - so better than an open breezeway. Reminds me of other 80s era indoor atria common in hotels (but smaller scale).

I can only imagine that the value of their condos will fall once the adjacent Oakridge ones are finished.

If there are 2 apples-to-apples comparable units on the market, one here and a brand new one next door, who will want to live in the old one?

They should have sold, and got the developer to guarantee them new units in the redevelopment for below-market price. A good lawyer would have helped.

Unless there's massive repair bills for the building it won't lose that much value. Seems like it's just people who want to live their for the rest of their life and don't care about it.

The old existing building units were purchased for pennies on the dollar compared to the new development. This is anything but apples-to-apples.

They are people that don't want the disruption. They could sell for big dollars or easily rent the units at a sizeable profit.
