New documents submitted for 927 march.
Brigil site is updated from last time. Perhaps this one is getting closer to shovels in the ground?

Since when do they build tract housing in Ottawa? In the west end?

So far, it's been towers in the central area and Orleans, along with Plateau style condos in Orleans. Don't remember them ever building a house in Ottawa.

Setbacks, setbacks, setbacks.

So what you're saying is, we need MORE setbacks?

I don't mind some set-backs for residential.

But we also a lot of useless set-backs with buildings that have street level retail.

Setbacks can be done well, but also very poorly like that last example.

Agreed. I think this one works well also, and has potential for patios.

Just realized the proposed french school would be going front center in the above photo (below right to the low stack rise, and below left to the taller towers). This is right where they have the treed park. Looks better to have trees than a big school there with the marketing?

I appreciate in this project that all the mixed use and condos will have underground parking.

About 20 years ago they were building (shitty) houses in Barrhaven.
