There is finally sort of a rendering available on the internet for 7177 Quinpool in Halifax, which is now almost completed:

A building permit has been issued for the Ralston development but there's still no actual rendering. Just some rough interpretations of what the planning rules allow. I wonder if this will be another one that will be under construction for years with no clear public renderings. I believe this site was under a pointless 66 m height limit (measured from the average elevation, so top to bottom may be more like 70 m+).

I believe the 2 parking lots visible here are government owned. Almost all underused land in the urban core is some kind of government land banking or tied to government land sales that got bogged down for years/decades.
Richmond Yards:

It's topped out but this area's still only half finished as the corner building is barely started and there are still a lot of details left on the main tower. It's rumoured that the Shoppers is moving into Richmond Yards and then getting redeveloped. If so this corner will be completely transformed. The other side of Robie is pretty good while the Richmond Yards side is a former industrial area that had some big box construction in the 90's/2000's.
