Must build more elevator cores to leave for future generations to marvel in wonder at the reason for their existence....Quarry Park and Metis/64th.. looking at you

Sorry I wasn't explicit in my post....let me clarify down to an inch; The current terminus at Saddle Town and the proposed terminal at 88th are as you've indicated, approximately 6.5 and 5 km away from the airport, respectively. The proposed Central Station is approximately 15-17km. Whilst a...

I don't think it needs deleting. The connection to the blue line falls under Transit so I think it's good to stay. Especially as there's nothing really released on regional rail or the Banff express yet other than high level proposals.

I believe both options are the ultimate plan. Connecting the Blue line makes sense both from a timeline and cost perspective. It's close to the airport currently and can be constructed fairly quickly and I would assume a great deal cheaper than the Nose Creek alignment. Additionally you have a...

Id imagine whatever opens won't simply be a carbon copy of a mid 90s newsagent stand and the fact CT states they have someone ready to go for Bridgeland, pushes it more into the realm of reality vs optimism. I've always thought that if they put in a quick grab and go coffee/food store, they'd...

Depending on where those little Deerfoot maintenance markers are ( looked on Street view but I couldn't see one on the east side, only the west, on a light standard in the median) it might lay with Alberta Transportation. Best bet, email both and cc your councilor and MLA.

Id guess the stop on 1st was chosen as CBBarnett pointed out, it is a fairly large interchange point along with the specific block being built out. I wouldn't expect any major changes to the building or plaza so it's a fairly safe investment. The 6th ave stop you reference backs onto a parking...

None of the new ones up Centre, have the arrival time screens. Unless they are going to add them in later but I did'nt see any spots in the concrete pad for where they would go. When the original ones went in, the screens came a bit later but the 2 spots for the 'legs' were visible. So unless...

The one under construction is on the north side of 7th. By the kiosk on the plaza

Preemptively naming it Grand Central before a shovel is in the ground, on the other side of things, is tempting fate to have it remain standalone for all of time... Event Centre until the doors open on a GC then adjust accordingly

I think she had to release something, maybe not as much and without the prop restaurant but something had to be be out to temper/balance expectations off the back of Dreeshen's one-man show press release and timelines. It should have been a short, we are looking into things still, then a huge...

How is the Mayor being a 'whiner'? If anything shes being realistic with the presentation of some remaining obstacles, which were self-identified in AECOMs report. Ignoring those and pushing the sunshine and lollipops angle, would I'd imagine, result in damage to the GL projects ultimate...

The Teal does seem to be the best option for that NW/SW link but I wouldn't want something cutting through the wooded area on the south side of the bow unless it was something truly integrated with the park/river scape but that would likely cost $$$. I'd be between two choices on a terminal, do...

I can't foresee any circumstance where the city can now cancel and walk away from this regardless of what they issued. Something is getting built. With the timelines they are proposing, I see 2 possibilities, 1) The fully fleshed out elevated design matches the province's expected costs and the...

It'll be interesting to see if the Province approves this with the timelines and rough schedule the city has laid out. It would seem fairly transparent that getting shovels in the ground this year is to essentially tie every level of government into their commitment with minimal avenues of...
