Local Enthusiast, Jun 13, 2024

I'm most excited to see what businesses will open up in Caban! It's a wonderful neighborhood and it will be exciting to see it flourish even more.

Jack B shared a construction update:

Caban is on track for this year completion. I personally like this project a lot, fits into the neighbourhood very well, waiting to see that front waterfall.

Dayana L. about Hoskins Road

Local Enthusiast, Jun 13, 2024

Woohoo to the tallest building in West Kelowna! Hopefully West Kelowna gets more development projects on the way.

Jim Kelowna said:

And this was approved today, so they call it the "tallest building in West Kelowna". I guess if you exclude Westrich Bay, which is a taller tower, but it's on the reserve lands.

Looks like framing is near completion for Nolita.

good point!

Karl said:

Good on the developer for calling out the inconsistency with a similar unit being approved a block away. Hopefully they reconsider, and as the article states, can work out the fine details during the development permit instead of this rezoning request.

Jack B about One Varsity

Urban Legend, Jun 10, 2024

One Varsity officially disappeared from the current DP application with the city, so it's cancelled after all the challenges until better times, I guess.
