Figured I'd make a thread about this development as well.
It's really coming along, there's one large apt/condo building near completion and one with the concrete framing up. There's a bunch of houses up too.

Here's the website.

Sorry, no pics yet.

Also, thought I'd make a Google Earth overlay for this too:
Here it is.

Ah, so that's what's going up there. I wonder if they're going to bulldoze the communications tower to make way

There's also development happening along the other part of Regency Park Drive and the two ends are going to connect, if they haven't already.

In a few years there will be no more land left inside the 102.

Here's the site for one of the condominium developments: Royale Summit.

www.royalesummit.com

It's one of the better looking condos I've seen in a while.

Yah, I like that one too.

I was up there today and that building had a units for rent sign on it. Do believe the other buildings are condos. Nice to see a mix of condos a rental units. The overall development I think is excellent.

Here's an update on this development:

Palace Royale

Some new church right beside it.

Royale Summit?

Another view.

The views are amazing.

Yet another building.

Lots for sale.

Townhouses.

Some homes appear to already have people living in them.

A path cutting through the middle of the area.

I really hope that building is being painted blue not that brownish colour

That is weird. Is it just an illusion of sunglare off some windows?

So I guess that church is the one replacing the Trinity Church which would allow for the 18 story condo to move forward @ Brunswick & Cogswell?

hfx_chris · #12 Posted: **Aug 22, 2008, 12:51 PM**

Anyone else find it extremely tacky that they named it Mount Royale?

Spitfire75 · #13 Posted: **Sep 26, 2008, 9:17 PM**

There was a fire at this development today. The big blue/gray building has some damage. I drove by it today, and it wasn't really bad but I'm sure it'll set them back a bit.

photos of the blaze from the CH. Looks like it was pretty big actually....

Just got back from a little venture out to Mount Royal...

I snuck into the building that burned down a couple months ago and got up onto the roof and got a bunch of shots I am going to stitch together to make a panorama.. stay tuned..

FYI, the building is coming along nicely... for the second time lol

The view from the roof of the condo building at the very top of the hill!

(the top 2 floors facing the city have about the same view from the living rooms and a bedroom)
