A new two-storey K-4 school is planned for Evanston, with a City permit listing an estimated project cost of $25.58 million. The school at 1070 Evanston Dr. NW will be built by Bird-Wright Joint Venture.

It is the biggest Calgary permit in the past seven days. A build of this size usually needs concrete, framing, roofing and electrical crews, with those trades appearing on four permits in the same week.

The Glenbow revitalization project is moving into a $3.4 million interior alteration at 130 9 Ave. SE in Calgary’s Downtown Commercial Core. EllisDon Construction Services is listed as the contractor for the museum work.

The scope points to drywall, electrical, HVAC and plumbing crews inside the existing building. Electrical work is showing up on six of Calgary’s permits from the past seven days, including this project.

A new four-storey, 78-unit apartment building is planned in Rangeview at 1105 99 Heartwood Gate SE. The Calgary permit lists Highstreet Ventures as the contractor and an estimated project cost of $12.74 million.

The project is one of four Calgary permits from the past seven days that call for concrete, framing, roofing and electrical work. It adds another multifamily build to the current permit mix, alongside a new school and other major projects.
