No picture but as of Friday the first of the drills is on site. They've also fenced off the sections of the HALL B and C walkway that they will be redoing the exterior on.

Let’s go! Nice to finally see one major project break ground. When does the LRT at Victoria Park get demolished?

I thought the Victoria Park was supposed to get torn down after Stampede, but I'm not so sure Stampede is happening this year, so could be sooner.

Official ground breaking ceremony is tomorrow and people will be able to watch online:

We are celebrating a major project milestone with the groundbreaking of the BMO Centre Expansion!

Is the station getting moved farther to the north? I see PCL constructing some sort of structure at the moment north of the current station

Looks good. Looks like this one officially stuck to the "Calgary Corporate Neutral" design motif inside and out. I guess that was to be expected when our big institutional players and governments come together to design a space.

It's not Stampitecture, so we're already ahead of the game!

Assuming there are no design changes, this will be a fabulous facility when finished and will help put Calgary on the map for conventions and shows, globally.

Lose the people with cowboy hats and we're good to go.
