More density, more taxes. We must stop subsidizing greedy companies who want to gobble up farmland while we provide their infrastructure. Better to improve the infrastructure of existing neighbourhoods. Besides, new subdivisions are boring. As the song goes: “ boxes made of ticky tacky and they all look just the same”. Thank you for being a voice for us locals Michael.

As a Calgarian, I am obliged to say that Edmonton sucks, and I really believe it because of how depressing the city is each time I visit (maybe I should spend more time in Whyte Ave instead of downtown...), but Michael Janz is a bright spot.

I dont take public transit and have always drove everywhere. I just bought an e-bike last week and have been exploring the bike paths across tbe city. I am very impressed with what's been built and feel super confident regarding my safety on biking into the city streets (rather than sticking just to the river valley, which is what I thought I would feel safer doing). Im looking forward to saving gas too and using my bike for small trips. I was floored i could get from Clareview to United Cycle just on bike paths and lanes the whole way. Thank you!!

I recommend you talk to someone who has actually attempted to retrofit commercial into residential. Often the retrofit costs exceed 75% of a fresh build, in order to meet large multi-family housing safety and fire standards. You definitely talked this guy into considering your thoughts, but your first question he answered quite clearly. He said building a new tower or turning one of the older buildings into a tower would make the most sense. This makes sense, he is talking about new builds, retrofitting makes way less sense when the retrofit costs are so high compared to new buildings. You are definitely dreaming of ideas, but the reality is the government doesn’t need to make this happen, you just have to get out of the way and reduce burdens on developers and these will happen in the most efficient and low cost way the fastest. There are professionals already with plans to build new housing but trying to figure out how to make it profitable with the regulatory costs imposed.
@michaeljanzyeg 10 ай бұрын
Thanks for the suggestions! There are examples of these retrofits already all over town and Ryan does speak to some of them in our conversation. Council has passed some of the most significant zoning bylaw renewals in generations. Hopefully we continue to see several different concurrent approaches to building new housing.

@@michaeljanzyeg The only valuable thing retrofit commercial space could be useful for would be subdivision into small, extremely low-priced maker/artist loft space. There is an almost impossible step from "crafting" and creating in a garage or basement, up to even the smallest commercial or industrial space. A Rona/Revy outlet could be divided with simple walls in concrete block or even drywall to allow flexible sizing, and property tax incentives could allow real estate owners to utilize difficult to lease space through incentivizing many potential new tax paying, job creating entities, or at the least, jobs for artists and crafts people. A city run outlet, similar to "Re-Use Center," would be a good place to allow, encourage a market like permanent selling space for artists, very small makers, and start-ups to find retail sales and exposure. Something like the Butterdome Craft Sale, or the old Army & Navy Building Christmas Craft Market, but, as a city owned/run/low cost (like a social program) permanent basic infrastructure to assist launching and growing new small businesses without the access to and benefit of venture capital and "unlicensed pop-ups" that those who seem to know the right civic insiders and hangers on have access to.

We need more of everything. Absolutely the government needs to step up and fund social housing, help cooperatives get shovels in the ground, etc. but the market doesn't magically disappear. All of these initiatives that the government should take will be cheaper in a healtheir market. If market housing is abundant and affordable, then it's way less expensive for governments to purchase it and repurpose it.

Everything you talked about, I have experienced first-hand in my many trips to NL and my one year living there as a 14 y/o student in 79/80. Even back then, the bicycle infrastructure was far superior to what exists in Edmonton 45 years later --- but there is hope we can finally accomplish something, despite the almost overwhelming opposition to anything that doesn't suit our car culture.

Govt needs to stop forcing citizens to subsidize the poor, care for the mentally I’ll and addicted. Build govt housing and open institutions again as if we can not do better for all in this day and age! You keep clobbering citizens with taxes rules and conditions, enough already you’re driving working people out of states and counties across the world. Stop allowing foreigners and foreign companies to own homes stop punishing 1st time homeowners with outrageous unfair competition for loans make them priorities over people who own multiple homes put a limit on how many homes an individual can own don’t let companies Orr llcs own if it really is a human right then do it in favor of families not business

Not a huge fan of Michael at times, but he's dead on with this. Density is important for city solvency, and livability. This needs to be combined with a huge LRT expansion effort, or car dependency will continue to incentivize unsustainable sprawl. Developers should also be paying for LRT expansion to these areas, as it's necessary infrastructure like streets and sewer lines.

In Japan, rail developers ARE real estate developers. It's how rail is paid for, you buy land, connect it with infrastructure, and then sell it for a profit. In North America, we let private corporations take the profits that we feed them with our publically-funded infrastructure! Unfair.
