Last we saw this was West Tenth 1400.

Got an email from RKHCA today re: a Grassroots Community Planning Workshop to “consolidate the community’s visions of what might be possible on the old Viscount Bennett site” and because “Neither the City nor the developer have been willing to organize a planning workshop for all parties to work...

I really like this. Gives me frozen Miami vibes.

I noticed fencing went up on this empty lot this week.

I really like the Oldstreet developments.

I think RNDSQR was on the brink. Seems like they’ve gone back to their infill roots and away from the mid-rises that almost did them in. Interestingly, I received an email from RNDSQR the other day for “m ddl School”, a crash course taught by Alkarim Devani on delivering missing middle...

The first couple floors have definitely pulled the building together, but yeah, its still not great.

I’d like to say I’m excited for this one but I seem to recall the plan for this one is to cover the brick.

My dream for that lot is the City (or some nice philanthropist) buys it and repurposes it as a plaza/park space. I thought with all the pizza places/coffee shops/breweries (the City allows public drinking in this park/plaza in my dream) it would be nice to have a gathering space, especially with...

Has anyone ever read "Unbuilt Calgary"? I own the "Unbuilt Toronto" and "Unbuilt Toronto 2" books which I thought were really good, so wondered if anyone has read the Calgary edition (different authors). Calgary could probably use a 2nd edition.

And now a private company is proposing rail from Calgary to Montana. https://lethbridgenewsnow.com/2024/05/01/alberta-montana-passenger-rail-service-proposed/

Yes!

They should totally do this. Change the road to brick pavers (which would have the added bonus of calming traffic) and install retractable bollards at the intersection.

Surprisingly ambitious announcement from the Provincial Government. First order of business should be to pass legislation controlling development adjacent to the Laggan, Red Deer and Leduc CPKC lines, and the Edson CN line to protect expansion/parallelling for the regional components, and any...

Are there studies indicating which corridor would have the greatest economic impact? Selfishly, I want funding to go to Calgary > Banff, but I suspect Calgary > Edmonton would be more beneficial to the economy.

I was literally lamenting to my wife the other day what an eyesore and wasted opportunity this site had become when we drove by the other day. Regardless of how the City decides to proceed with this site, they need to clean up the rubbish on-site and find a creative temporary use in the meantime.

American elms are part or the Marda Loop Main Street replanting plan (along with northern blaze white ash and northern acclaim honey locust).

What an absolutely massive improvement to the public realm!

I feel like the building is not befitting the name “Cornerstone”.

Blush Lane, Bridgeland Market and Linas all seem to do ok. I think Urban Fare would have done better outside of downtown.
