Description & Screencaps from our friend Rocketpish on the SSP Ottawa Thread

Richcraft is proposing to construct two (2) residential towers 27 and 25 storeys tall at 176 Nepean Street and 293-307 Lisgar Street, connected by a structure at the third storey, with shared amenity space and six (6) levels of underground parking.

The North Tower along Nepean Street contains 252 residential units in 27 storeys on a floorplate of 650 m2, the South Tower along Lisgar Street contains 251 units in 25 storeys on a floorplate of 650 m2, while a structure adjoining both towers contains 18 residential units as well as a shared fourth storey rooftop amenity space, for a total of 521 units and a total GFA of 29,161 m2. A maximum potential total of 282 underground parking spaces are proposed on levels P1 through P6. A total of 470 bicycle parking spaces are also proposed. Residential access to the towers will be from lobbies via Lisgar Street and Nepean Street.

I forgot about this Richcraft project entirely. I was wondering if they'd go for The Sky next or the Parkdale/Scott towers, but looks like these might be next.

This just showed up on Devapps:

This one looks very overbearing on Bank, but the dynamics have changed now that the abutting heritage block is about to be redeveloped.

Didn't see a thread so wanted to kick one off. New design from NEUF, site plan docs have just gone live on devapps: https://devapps.ottawa.ca/en/applications/D07-12-22-0188/details .

I like the height for this location, added density and I kinda like the design (barcode designs on side), glass and full length balconies front/back. They look a bit bulky, wished they were a bit thinner but overall decent. Will it clash or be TOO much white if that other project is developed too right next to it?

It always made sense to me as the next for them just in terms of scale and competition over the next few years. My understanding without more documents is that atm it is just an extension on the SPC descision so probably next spring at the earliest and probably even later. Would love to be proven wrong though.

I don't mind the design, but they are very bulky compared to say Parkdale Collective. This isn't within the NCC's view planes, so I'd like to see Richcraft push the envelope a bit by proposing slimmer 35 floor towers.
