We have been following the rumours and facts regarding Torode's 'Ramsay Exchange' project since the summer of 2006. See below for the latest news...
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The rumour that the historic Dominion Bridge site at the south end of Ramsay has been sold for re-development was confirmed in the Calgary Herald on September 28 2006:
"(John) Torode added that the company has bought the Ramsay Crossing site east of the Stampede Grounds at Spiller Road, with plans to build about three million square feet of various office, condo and retail development on the site."
The site includes some brick and steel office and industrial space, as well as a considerable amount of open space. Some of the old Dominion Bridge buildings are on the Municipal Inventory of Potential Historic Sites.
CHI has heard that adaptive re-use of some of the buildings is on the agenda, and we have also heard that development may begin in 2008. Watch here for more historic information and photos.
John Torode is the owner of Hotel Arts and the developer of Arriva, among other projects. He is also the owner of the Enoch Sales / Rock Central site. Information about these projects can be found elsewhere on this site.
