December 13th, 2008

Seems that no matter where you go the issues are the same, funny how that works. South of the border in Vancouver Washington there is a massive multi-family (among other components) development being planned in one of the worst economic times.
I know most people probably wonder why this would be on the table right now. [...]

Millennium Developments, Let’s Make a Deal!

December 12th, 2008

Looks like building is not the only thing Millennium is good at. Making deals with politicians and cities seems to be something that comes easy for them.

Correction, “Olympic Village to be Complete in 10 Months???”….

December 8th, 2008

In response to a readers comment on my post from yesterday regarding the Olympic Village and the lack of Windows, I wish to correct/clarify the post.

Another look at the state of the condo market, this time form an Eastern Perspective. Financial Post Article “Consumers nervous about buying condominiums” talks about the development situation in Toronto.

It seems there is once city in Canada that is not seeing projects fail, put on hold etc. during these uncertain times. Edmonton has seen a decline in Real Estate prices over the last year that is equal or greater than many other cities in the country, yet they seem to be immune so [...]
