Place 10 - Page 2

The south side of 10th av has a surprising amount of quality retail/resto options.

Place10 will add more bays, if only the Marriott hotel and rental towers get going on that side of 10th too.. One of the neighboring gc's should drop off a pile drive at Brad's Lamb site just to mess with him lol.

I've heard good things about their Edmonton location, so fingers crossed.

Excavation has started on the east tower, drilling continuing at the west tower.

Chadillaccc · #24 Posted **Sep 12, 2014, 3:03 PM**

The east tower excavation is already a good 10 feet down.

Oh shit, really? Hard to tell sometimes with the hoarding up.

Yeah, if you refer to this photo I took last week, you can see that the truck in the pit is fully below ground level. The boards in the back show where the ground is, and where the bottom of the pit is, so far

La Prep? Meh.

With Centre10 complete along with the new resto's and retails along the ave, and Mark, 6th and 10th, Place10 towers u/c, if Marriott Res gets going with their two towers our ugliest inner-city stretch may suddenly become one of our nicer Beltline strips.

Nice to see this one moving ahead nicely!

It's true! And don't forget about WAM and Sutton Place.

10th Ave honestly has the potential to become one of the city's hotspots. It already has a good half dozen popular nightlife spots, a few more couldn't hurt.

Absolutely. And it helps bridge the psychological gap from the CBD to the Beltline a bit further. Something similar happens to the block directly north of Place 10 with good treatment of the underpass for peds and Calgary is close to having it's first quality North-South corridor in the inner city.

It would be a race between 4th & 5th Street and 8th Street on who does it first.

I haven't heard much about the 8th Street improvements of late, when is that project supposed to begin?

10th avenue is going to be incredible, but like I've said before, that parkade needs some work. With retail at the main floor and some exterior work to make it visually appealing like colourful lights, or glass like the colours building on first street. That would be perfect for some more bars and Clubs. Right now that side of the street is a dead zone

Here is an overview of the property, I took today.

Spring2008 · #34 Posted **Sep 14, 2014, 3:39 PM**

4 drills now, that's a big site.

How many retail bays will there be in Centre10 across the street? I think there's about 20,000 sf of retail space there.

Can see the rooftop patio take shape at National on 10th, they missed the whole summer!

Rodney's should be opening mid Oct now. Longer than anticipated, but then again they completely gutted everything inside as well as lots of changes to the exterior as well. Will be worth the wait.

Cool photo, please provide more pics like this Design Mind as you have an awesome view of the entire site. Maybe once a week progress shot so the rest of us ground living SSPers can see its progress.

I think the east tower has 2 major retail/restaurant spaces and the west tower will also have two as well. They can be divided even more if needed for multiple tenants.

Would love to provide that, but it is a rare occasion for me to get this view. I do not have access to this building when I please.

Great view of a great project! I'm really excited for this one, especially the integration with the underpass.

What's the status of the building across the street, are there tenants in the office or retail spaces yet?

tomthumb2 · #39 Posted **Sep 14, 2014, 11:01 PM**

I wonder if they will ever re-route the trains and get rid of those ugly ass tracks?

I'm not holding my breath. To be honest, I kind of like the train, but all the underpasses need work. Though, I wouldn't mind a High Line through there!
