Some predictions - growth to 2049 - from Statscan on various census divisions around Canada and various growth scenarios. For Calgary Census division 6 is mainly our CMA + plus Foothills MD I thought I'd compare Calgary, Edmonton and Ottawa. Ottawa's numbers didn't look to be apples to apples...

You don't hear about cock roaches being much of a problem in Calgary, but it only takes one of the restaurants to get the issue and it spreads quickly top the rest.

I was wondering that too. The thing that makes me rule it out is the site is owned by the same people behind Keynote and Stephen Ave quarters (Mannix family) and I'd be surprised if they hired an expensive out of country architect, but who knows.

Me too. It's two different vibes in one neighborhood, with 34th being my favorite of the two.

Crane bases at Lincoln and Gryphon. The count is about to go back up.

Agreed. They've beaten some good teams lately and have moved form last to 2nd last, but there aren't many teams the Flames could realistically pass after Nashville. Maybe Buffalo or Vancouver.... They'll finish bottom 5 or less.

Hmmm... A few places pop into my mind. - Former Grace hospital site - North Hill Mall - University's Innovation Quarter

There was talk of a hotel going in beside the Cowboys Casino, and that the project was to be managed by Matthews Southwest. That's the lot I thought we were talking about, but there is also the one to the NW of the BMO centre. I forgot there was a concept proposal for that lot.

I think it's the lot beside the BMO Centre. It was supposed to be a hotel at one time, but personally I would love it to be the empty lot beside the BMO tower.

From what I heard or read, that was the reason.

Could be. That would be nice.

A new building seems to make sense, but in other ways, it makes me wonder why someone would choose a firm like Allies and Morrison if just doing a tower? It's a firm you'd pick if you wanted something special for maybe an institutional type project. New campus for AUA? Maybe something involving...

The Avs off to a killer start. Then there’s the Flames. A team that looked to be doing a proper tank but now seems to be screwing that up. Lol

Great idea for a thread CT. I chose downtown tower mainly because it seems the most likely. I’d love it to be Westbrook of Eau Claire but somebody needs to buy the land first.

There was some discussion in another thread about the Bridgeland McDonald's and whether it had seating. Looks like take out and drive-thru only. https://calgary.citynews.ca/2025/11/28/calgary-mcdonalds-drive-thru-takeout-only/

Spill the beans Nimbus!

Nice to see another proposal for that part of 17th. The building it's replacing does little for the vibrancy of 17th, so it won't be much of a loss.

I can't stand the connection path from Marda Loop to Currie. It's not good for cyclists or pedestrians, and really it's not even good for drivers. IMO it's a pile of crap. Outside of that I don't mind Currie. It's still evolving and will probably be an alright urban enclave in the suburbs once...

I noticed that too. I was wondering how the 12 months year to date arrives at 21.140M? My best guesstimate is we'll be around 19.5M, still very strong considering the drop in trans-border. Without Trump and his BS, we would have a good shot at 20M..

Not to cling to false hope, but this pic is intriguing. Judging by the prints in the snow, the surveyors were working specifically on this site.
