    The good old Can-Do Calgary attitude. Got us the Olympics too.

    Stampede Station | 277.3m | 70s | Truman | NORR

    It makes you think, between the tower construction, increasing population (statscan thread), and some of the economic things happening (Calgary and Alberta economy thread) and the early days of a federal government "build" initiative that to spite the complete weirdness happening at the...

    Urban Development and Proposals Discussion

    I don't know if you can do 6th Ave. that would take 8th, 7th and 6th out of commission to cars. Would be quite something to see how that would affect the core, could be a positive? You would need to probably make 9th Ave reversible as 4th Ave wouldn't be able to handle all westbound traffic. I...

    Marc and Mada | 62m | 19s | Truman | NORR

    I am surprised at the lack of opposition according to my wife's reporting on the local facebook outrage at the project there is opposition. People are probably just so tired of complaining about the road construction they've lost interest in this project. Also shows it is one thing to post on...

    This summer seems to be more rainy. It either seems to be raining or 30 degrees.

    You can sell this to them though. I've seen many times on 5th where busses needing to go north cut across traffic and slow down everyone. Bus lanes with priority signals and you've got yourself a rapid bus system downtown. Also, the lanes could only be active during rush hours, opposite to the...

    When they're digging up Stephen Ave this would be a pretty good time to map everything out. Not full-on prep for a subway but at least some note taking. Won't happen though as I'm sure they're not digging up the whole of the road.

    "ASI 17th Avenue Master Plan Project 6/8" I imagine 7/8 in Sentinel? What is 8/8? Edit: Found this... but it isn't happening, that's where the Lulu is going. https://www.arlingtonstreet.ca/developments/vincent/ Could be this... https://www.arlingtonstreet.ca/developments/scotia-block/

    Also noticed the Phil's at Glenmore and Elbow in the SW had its Land Use Approved. 26 storey's is great height for the area. And this was approved with little to no fanfare, across Glenmore from May-Fair and Belaire. LOC2024-0167 Description The application proposes to change the land-use...

    Every time I see a development with a more than four story underground parking I can't believe we can't do a simple cut and cover. Is it not the same damn thing?

    Smits @ Montgomery | 23m | 6s | Dominium | Ace Architecture

    Good for the glutes though, and justifies the movie snacks.

    Stampede Hotel | 45m | 12s | Truman | NORR

    From a Herald Article on Weadickville. The former NWMP Morley detachment will be disassembled, stored and reassembled at a later date and in a different location, according to Calgary Stampede CEO Joel Cowley. The rest will have to be moved, and the trees will be cut down. Looks like...

    It is about these small things. Avoiding big dollar signs and trying things like you list are what we should be doing.
