Very exciting stuff. It would be great to see this project trigger some more activity on that block, like for instance on the old legion hall site at the corner of Smith and St. Mary.

Wow -- just found this. Looks like they're planning some multi-storey units? |

It is more common now for a modest size one bedroom "loft" style place with a bed and a study area, a private bathroom and a shared lounge/common area that includes a smaller kitchen style area ie no oven and often no fridge and each room has a private mini fridge. Often to make up for the lack for full kitchens there is a dining hall or food court style service in the building. There is a chance they push it more is a low cost rental and include full kitchens. They could also structure these so preference is given to post-secondary students, perhaps in partnership with U of W, sort of politely suggesting to non-students that this isn't necessarily your first choice residence long term. |

Really glad to see 185 Smith going ahead. I remember the building having a very nice, spacious outdoor patio on the second level, which would be a great amenity for future residents. |

No, it has antennas now that weren't there before the way they are now. I think you meant that they were placed on the corners of the building. Well, now they're in a cluster in the centre. Didn't have my cell phone camera to snap a quick picture. |

Maybe earls wants to sell the land to a developer than i dunno the details
|
They do not have a buyer or developer in place yet. They've only just begun to start planning the new location, and are expecting it to be likely 3 years away. Hell, the city hasn't even decided what land it wants to reserve for the eventual exit of BRT coming from Union Station yet – there's a chance there could be ROW stipulations on the north part of the Earls-owned land.
|
With the increased (current) rail setbacks I cannot see the Earls on Main site ever having a tower. It is going to be too narrow a slice of land.
