Calgary to transform Olympic Plaza by bundling area revitalization projects together yyc
“If there are any efficiencies on the construction side, the delivery or the process side, we can find them together, versus having them separately or separate and later,” Thompson said. “When you build projects at a later date, the costs go up. … This is a smart move by the city to coordinate and bundle so that we can find those efficiencies.”
“As cherished as Olympic Plaza is, it is deteriorating,” said Arts Commons CEO Alex Sarian. “Sometimes these innovate programs happen in spite of the condition the plaza is in, as opposed to because of them.” The $12 million in Cultural Municipal Sustainability Initiative funding was earmarked for projects at the Calgary Opera and Fort Calgary that have since been cancelled, but will now help offset escalation and inflation costs for construction at the Glenbow Museum.
