Well the pictures are great but the sad thing is there are zero workers on site and no work happening yet again. The site has been a ghost town again this week, I guess it is the scheduled week off for the workers after the three feet of progress they made last month!

The top picture was taken in the evening while the bottom one was taken in the early afternoon when there were about 10 workers on site.

Notice a trend with Fortress projects? They don't get built.

Harmony Village spinning its wheels
http://www.thebarrieexaminer.com/201...ing-its-wheels

Harmony Village continues to hit a flat note on Barrie's development scale.

While the Bradford Street property was sold late last year, its future as a high-rise residential project is no closer to being built or even planned.

It's been more than three years, March of 2014, since development plans were floated for seven towers ranging from eight to 25 storeys and 1,170 residential units.

And there's still no application before the city's planning department to build it.

The future of this project, and even this 8.6-acre property, remains unclear.

It could also be sold, again.

Natasha Alibhai, of Fortress Real Developments, said Fortress Kempenfelt Bay Developments - an affiliate of Fortress Real Developments - successfully bought the site through a power-of-sale on Nov. 30, 2016.

“Since purchasing the land, Fortress has been evaluating multiple options for development and a phase one and two environmental assessment is currently underway,” she said.

“In terms of next steps with the development, Fortress is currently exploring options for sale of the site and will know more when the listing is ready, which is expected at the end of the month.”

It's worth noting, however, that Fortress helped present details at that public information meeting in March of 2014 that laid out the then-latest plans for Harmony Village, which also included restaurants and cafes, a hotel with 152 rooms and a grocery store at 51-83 Bradford St. and 20 Checkley St.

Further complicating Harmony Village's future is a statement of claim in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice which names Fortress, Harmony Village-Lake Simcoe Inc., along with Jawad Rathore, president and CEO at Fortress Real Developments, and Vincent Petrozza, chief operating officer at Fortress, among the defendants.

The plaintiffs are Bryan Madryga and Eileen Wallace, who are also representative of 358 others in the proposed class-action claim – which involves investment in a syndicated mortgage, a partnership involving two or more investors in a specific mortgage.

The statement of claim says 'Fortress' marketing of its syndicated mortgages misleads investors with respect to the security of their investment.'

So I took the rendering you guys posted and found this similar photo on flickr by Johnny Lang and tried to squeeze it into that similar frame:



It looks high though, doesn't it?

Awesome project for Regina!

Yeah, I just went by that outline on their website. usually those are not the most reliable things. Plus I don't live there, so all I can do is guess. (actually, I did live in Regina for a few months back in 2001 - gov't contract)

Nathan's pic is better than my half assed effort!

And in reverse. Lol!

Hey guys, I cannot see this being 29 floors @ 91 metres in including the spire; it doesn't jibe. 91 m will still yield will be 26 floors with the spire. (Or 29 floors WITHOUT the spire @ 91 m.)

Just sayin'. Lol!!!

Capital Pointe is ITC’s first project in Saskatchewan. Capital Pointe is a 29 storey mixed use development located in the heart of downtown Regina, steps from City Hall and the financial district.

The luxury condominium building will house 333 units and be the tallest residential tower in Saskatchewan and a signature piece of architecture in the city’s skyline. A historic weather tower originally erected in 1962 will be featured at the top of the structure.

The multi-tiered building will also include a 11-storey hotel with 140 guest suites; amenities of the hotel will be available to all condominium occupants. The development also includes 5 storeys of underground parking.

Seems to be going up and down..Which is it?

[HomeInMyShoes]

^Why do I doubt if the developer even knows that. Have the final plans arrived at City Hall? Could they maybe tell us?

It could be 29 stories and 91m to the top of the spire. They would be short floor heights, but it is possible. I would guess more like 27 with 91 to the top of the spire. The shortest floor height building I know is Edmonton House at about 2.74m per floor for a 45 story residential building. That would put it at about 80m for 29 floors.

Could be the case..I'll leave things as they are for the time being.
