I think you’re referring to Opus’s Britannia Crossing Development. It’s currently under construction and listed by Barclay Street Real Estate. They have had some challenges leasing the office portion so they announced a incentive program for brokers back in October. The next 12,000sq ft leased would get a equivalent portion of the Opus’s Flames season tickets, pretty sweet deal.
Anyway lease info and renderings below:
LEASE & BUILDING DETAILS
- Building Size: 66,663 sq ft total rentable space
- Total Office Space 53,896 sq ft
- Total Retail Space: 12,767 sq ft (Main Floor)
- Available Retail Space: 3,640 sq ft
- Available Office Space: 42,846 sq ft
- Occupancy: Summer 2014
- Building Uses: Retail/Office
- Estimated OP Costs: $10.85 (2014)
- Parking Ratio: 1.59/1000 ft2
- Offsite Parking: Available
- Annual Net Rent: Market
- Inducements: Negotiable
- Other: Turnkey Available

I know more about the commercial end of this project. Colliers investment sales team identified the JV partner (Embassy Bosa Inc.) to partner with Canada Lands Company for the redevelopment. They are still deciding what they want to do on the commercial end but I suspect it will be roughly 200,000 to 300,000SF of office space over 2-3 mixed use buildings. My team put a lot of leg work in assisting our investment sales team so we will be granted the listing when things start to materialize. You'll probably start seeing shovels in the ground in late 2015 to early 2016.
More information here, and here.

I know the brewery was allowed to stay until early 2015 which lines up with that time line.
Whats happened to Stampede Station? They were trying to lease space in 08 right before the world ended, I remember seeing a financing package and then "poof it was gone".
same thing happened with that best buy on 17th, except I thought that was a bad idea both then and now

That's another Opus Development - Hanson Court
Building is subject to preleasing and they'll want to hit a 50% threshold before they put shovels in the ground. It's on the back burner for Opus at the moment with Britannia Crossing being their main focus.
Some more information is: here

Stampede Station Phase I is fully leased but currently has a 37,130sq ft sublease through Genivar.
Phase II is currently subject to preleasing (likely 50% threshold) and is being by listed by Colliers. The site is owned by WAM Development but there has been little interest in the site over the past couple of years. There is too much sublease availability and upcoming headlease space downtown to have a major tenant take a position there. I don’t see anything happening there for a couple of years.
Colliers marketing brochure is: here
The Best Buy is located in Hanson Square (another Colliers listing) which is owned by Western Securities (fully private Landlord backed by the wealthy O’Connor family). We listed the office portion which has done exceptionally well but the Best Buy has been struggling since day one. Doesn’t help that they spent something like $100/sq ft to building out the space, which was mostly sunk into the escalator and signage. They are on a longer term lease, untied to the tenant sales performance, and are paying a high rate so WS doesn’t care much. I also don't see them selling the building anytime soon.
We have had some space come back in the building which shows quite well - particulars are below:
Hanson Square
- Available Area: Third Floor: 7,692 sq. ft.
- Term: 5-10 years
- Net Rents: Market
- Operating Costs: Estimated at $16.00 psf (2013 Budget)
- Cash Allowance: Negotiable
- Parking Ratio: Allocated at 1:540 sq. ft.
- Available: Immediately
- Ceiling Heights: 10.0’ to T-bar ceiling

Well I just saw it posted on SSP so I believe I am safe to say who purchased that land.
Oxford bought it, and apparently for $/sqft rate of about $1000.
Edit: Title transferred for around $69M. Yowza!

Yeah everyone figure it was Oxford because they were the only ones who could actually afford it. I was really hoping Remington was going to make a bid as part of the Imperial Oil deal. It would be really interesting to see what they could do with a downtown development.

To pay that much makes you think that they have somebody already in mind for that property.
It won;t be Husky. They are staying put and doing a refit.

Hmmmm... A major development there still wouldn't be enough to improve +15 access from west downtown to the core. I hate the little jog that goes through Aquitaine, Chevron, Roslyn, etc.
Would also like to see Centennial bridged to the west more.
If you could do 5th and 5th, to the courthouse, to... I guess the new Manulife building, to EAP that might help. Obviously the courthouse would be a no go due to security though.
Hmmm.... Does that lot include the section on 5th ave too? Just trying to think about the floor plate size.

Sounds like Husky is staying put, lease apparently done.
Also, apparently with the Imperial Land sale most of the offers were conditonal on getting Husky in there whereas Oxford just offered $10 million more without conditions.

They are. I worked heavily on one of the teams that was competing. Husky got a sweetheart of a deal with their current landlord. Oh well, upward and onward.

So in the case of a sublet will the tenancy be subject to the same restrictions on occupancy and have to be considered "research park tenants?". I know there's some restrictive use covenants in there.
