Seems could be a fit for an area like West Village, Victoria Park, Stampede, or something similar. Since a specific geographic region (i.e. east) has not been specified, it makes me feel inclined to believe that it's less of a factor.

I was going to mention this. Even with the high vacancy rate in Calgary right now I couldn't see Amazon getting into a downtown tower lease. That type of environment just isn't the type of atmosphere that attracts the tech companies. They would need to build a campus style environment probably in the suburbs somewhere. Maybe this would be a good project for West Village or for the Fire Park area.
