It's combination of the Flames not playing as poorly as they did in October and the fact that the rest of the league isn't that much better than the Flames are. Even after paying so well for two months they haven't actually climbed that high up the standings. Sorting by points percentage...

Yes, 2025 was the year of turning the page and seeing some progress on TOD. Which this sort of is.

Are both buildings underway, or just one?

The HAT at WAC. At least I think it is called the Werklund Arts Centre as of 2026.

I think there is a pool.

I your last photo, some infill is happening there along elbow. My in-laws live in that area and there are people who are trying to do a restrictive covenant. My in-laws are not going to sign-on, they're five years or less from selling, why box themselves and their prospective buyers in.

It's not about out of sight, out of mind. It's about the best way to use the space and avoiding conflicts with major intersections. You do not want a train line that can be out run (literally a guy outran a new LRT in Ontario) end to end because of time delays at conflicts with major...

If you're looking for grand new stations Rome just spent a lot of time and money on this:

I think there's some correlation between being well travelled and being interested in things like this forum. But maybe not.

One of the windiest three block walks downtown I've had to the bus. I couldn't look up without being blinded by snow and wind blowing the snow in my eyes. Had to hold my hand up to my eyes and open my fingers to see. We get snow in Calgary and we get wind but I haven't been out in conditions...

Why does it work elsewhere? Most notably in Nordic countries. Do they just have the volume that allows the manufacturers to realize efficiencies? I assume they probably, because of their small size and political system, are able to realize the efficiencies because of an accepted collective...

Isn't that what this forum is or are you guys much more organized and just offline?
