Yes that's the location thanks. Not a bad site for a senior's facility.

Lots of work started beside Aspen Glen Landing shopping centre off 17th Ave. Not sure if they are expanding the commercial area.

Western Canada regional HQ for an angel investment organization is opening up in Calgary this Spring. Great to see the investment side of the tech ecosystem continuing to grow. This should help drive growth for the tech industry in the province...

That's not surprising to me. Honestly I don't expect Calgary to directly compete with the Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal markets. Rather I see Calgary becoming more of a secondary market for the tech firms which would still be very significant for us.

Westjet adding lots of capacity in 2020. Great to see they are continuing to invest in YYC as their main hub. https://simpleflying.com/westjet-calgary-capacity-boost/

Just got back from this. They did a great job with the budget they had. Really good use of the space available

This was really nice in person. I'd be happy to have some of these by all c-train stations. I know Cidex gets a lot of hate but they nailed it on this one
