^I recall seeing a plan for a very dense 3 storey Townhouse development on this site a few years ago, but suspect they want more density now?

Our EllisDon Special Projects division are excited to begin mobilization at Sir Frederick Haultain Building in Edmonton this week. This 8 storey building on 109 St, constructed in 1959, will undergo a complete interior building renovation, exterior glass replacement and stone improvements. Once complete, this building will provide best-in-class energy efficient office-space for our Client Alberta Infrastructure . Looking forward to seeing this beautiful building being restored to new glory.

There was a major renovation in the 80s that had the ventilationa nd heating system updated. But that would be quite lod now. If they gut this one it would be good. The last renovation left some of the old ceilings in.

Only been inside once, but it was in dire need and had one of the weirdest interiors I've seen.

Are they adding a full new set of lanes to the Rainbow Valley Bridge? Part of the Terwillegar upgrades right?

yes correct. Also, a new multiuse path across whitemud just a bit west of here. Thats the exciting part for me. There will be a new multiuse path that connects alongside terwillegar from Windermere, across henday (where there is no current facility for active use to do so at Terwillegar/Henday),and then across whitemud, and from there, its very easy to get downtown or elsewhere. I bet it will be highly used for commuting.

The area is all fenced now. Something is going on I guess.

That's great to hear, good to have options on shared use paths for people in SW Edmonton to get Downtown and beyond other than the river valley system.

I think it'll be a very well used route for cyclist commuters.

Nevermind, Situate. Does Procura own all of those lands? I know they own the lands north of 100 Ave.
