Lol. There's no "high-rise" being built in White City. Do you even know where White City is? You're using Just Bins as a source?

Anything from Just Bins is usually trash talk

Based on the freakouts online from White City, I'm guessing a 4-storey apartment complex with 50 units will be built or something, and this is somehow bringing the "trash" (i.e. people who can't afford $600,000+ homes) into their "city." Heaven forbid the people that work retail jobs in White City be able to live there, lol.

You are correct it’s most likely a three story building with stucco and a walk up

I was thinking the exact same thing when I heard about this. In my opinion you want a community of acreage lots and very little amenities / commercial etc. Fine, ok, in Sask that is possible.

However, it is ridiculous that they now have significant commercial businesses of all kinds, yet, the people working at those don't have the privilege of being able to live in the community they work. Once they chose to have commercial businesses in the community, the acreage only lot design was a thing of the past IMHO.

This story mentions a "massive" truckstop out by Grand Coulee, but not any details that haven't been floating around for years. Just a comment from the opening of the small cardlock at the GTH.

There’s going to be a big development there. There’s going to be a pretty massive truck stop going in that area,” Highways Minister David Marit told reporters Monday.

The Government of Saskatchewan has invested $9 million on intersection improvements in the area. It says the truck stop will be built by Suncor Energy, that company typically operates under the Petro Canada brand.

“They’re in partnership with the ministry on developing that whole area,” Marit went on to explain. “It will be kind of a roundabout on the north side of number one highway that’ll [provide] access for trucks coming in and out and going through the province for service that they want to provide to.”

The new truck stop is one of three commercial fueling facilities being added in the Regina area. The Co-op has built a card lock at the Pilot Butte turnoff east of the city, while UFA has opened a similar facility at the Global Transportation Hub (GTH).

“So, what attracts us to the GTH is the Saskatchewan government has, in my mind, created such vision for growth, the GTH concept, the global transportation hub, is a very necessary concept,” UFA CEO Fred Thun told reporters Monday. “There’s such a high volume of heavy commercial traffic moving through this area.”
They will most likely build out this area maybe an industrial park and lots of commercial. The city of Regina is growing like wild

In 2016 PetroCan was proposing a 14 acre truck stop at TCH and Fleming. Not sure if that is still possible. EDIT: Fleming was the land embroiled in a an alleged corruption scandal involving a former RM Councilor.

EDIT: I assume they move slightly east to the Grand Coulee access. Reddit says:

It's a giant PetroCan truck stop, with 24/7 services. Large truck fueling islands and overnight parking, laundry and shower services, etcetera.

Infill project by the General Hospital is on the go. Arwel project at Toronto & 15th is moving on the the second of six floors. Saw a fire off Pinkie Road but it was just pallets and crates getting burned in a dumpster. Video still uploading when I posted this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=raybyYVAzaE

I thought it was the 2322 St John project but its actually 1431 15th Ave. Last permit for that address was a demolition permit. I'm not aware of what is going in there.

The foundation for 2322 St John is currently started for what was supposed to be an 8 plex when it was proposed to the city. 1431 15th ave is 10 - 3 bedroom townhouses, being developed by West Oak (see website for rendering). Heritage is full of 7 or 8 active developments right now with more on the horizon.
Hopefully this keeps going and we start to see more development downtown/transition and along Albert between 15th to Vic where there are some long term empty lots.

The Glen Elm trailer park looks like it was hit by a tornado. Cutting down the trees in the condemned section of the park. Part of the trailer park is still there.

Covering the pipe they added in the creek in AE Wilson, they installed 2 plastic pipes instead of the big concrete ones. It looks like they will repeat the same procedure on the north side of the creek as they've moved dam pieces over there. Some servicing work at the Costco site. Might be starting to stockpile road base, we'll see if the pile they started continues to grow. Commercial building on Pinkie with the Tim Hortons is getting an extension added.

Looking a the owner Canwest's multifamily projects on their website, they seem to prefer Avana style townhouses.

Work definitely underway for the Grand Coulee #1 truckstop. Pile of steel for second Harbour Landing School keeps growing. Gordon Road condos look to be using the same precast slabs for the first floor as the Ronald McDonald House building. No major earthwork at the Kinsmen Park South project, maybe that will be done next year. New building going up in the park, saw a post somewhere that its for the Regina Ski Club. Crane in AE Wilson Park to reconfigure the temporary dam. Costco servicing work has progressed pretty far into the lot. I think the Westerra expansion is moving on the the next phase, equipment is parked to the east of the new apartment area.
