For those unaware Cadillac Fairview sold Fairway Park Mall to Westcliff in late 2024 (A company based in Montreal with some minor land holdings in Ontario), officially killing the iteration of the Grand Market District that we knew, there isn't anything planned for the property anytime soon now. One thing most of us on here missed is the Grand Market District never touched the lands around the Walmart, which is a separate property.
Now the owner of the Walmart lands are trying to sell it, Walmart has a lease until 2100 on the property, however the lands around the Walmart are zoned SGA-4 through Growing Together allowing for unlimited height save for any airport restrictions. It will obviously take time for anything to happen on the property but the wheels are at least in motion for some kind of change around the Walmart. The city does have a conceptual street network for all the future redevelopment along Fairway so any redevelopment will require those connector streets to be implemented as part of subdivision approval, that is still years away though.
In other news the portion that ac3r pointed out in the previous post is completed, it is a restaurant with a rooftop patio called The Canadian Brewhouse.
