There is a proposal from Triovest to create a gigantic block development in Stephen Avenue that will tear down the dilapidated buildings on the C-Train side and keep only the facades of all the Heritage buildings on the Stephen Avenue side. This includes the Winners store down to the ATB branch. This includes a 66 story highrise which would be the tallest building yet in Calgary.
I'm not sure this is a good thing in the whole proposal including the south Stephen Ave side. Certainly the North Side needs action and this is much better than the parkade that was proposed around 10 years ago. I don't like seeing all the historic buildings destroyed and only the facades kept but there are stores that need revitalization like that old Sportchek store that has sat empty for a few years now.
