Not entirely sure if I'm allowed to post this or if it's still supposed to be a secret, but I saw it on Google Images pretty quickly so if it's a secret, it's not very well kept haha. Are these the renders you remember seeing at one point @Surrealplaces ? If there's any problem with me...

Don't mean to bump random topics but I haven't heard anything about what emerged out of the "3 Eau Claire" proposal for a long time. I remember there was a new render out at one point but I can't find the thread for it anymore. Did that just kind of roll over and die? Or are they just waiting...

Excellent. What's on that land right now needs to go as soon as possible. I'm liking the surge in ~3-6 storey buildings in this area right now.

Going all the way back to what my elementary school teacher told us, it's probably better to actually give them food or clothes or whatever, rather than straight up money. I'm not saying everyone's going to bolt to the nearest bar or 7/11 to get alcohol or cigarettes the second you hand them...

It's not like "The Hat" is a particularly appealing name either. These name choices keep me wondering. Same with "11th and 11th." I'd much rather say "I live in Point Tower" than "I live in 11th and 11th." I don't see any appeal in being asked "where do you live," replying "The Hat," and...

I'm in! I just got into liking hockey fairly recently but I'm pretty into it now. I've never done one of these before so I might need a crash course on the rules and stuff but it sounds like a great idea!

There's been lots of pictures of it from a few years back, not particularly interesting if you ask me. It's most likely gonna be redesigned. That being said, this isn't really the proper thread for it, here's the dedicated one for Oxford Tower.

Woohoo!!!! Damn they are working fast, compare this pic to the ones UrbanWarrior posted on July 25. That's only about 2 weeks, and you can see a major difference.

Calgary's much more dense, with a plethora of very tall (and well designed) buildings. Edmonton having one that is slightly taller doesn't mean it's suddenly better than Calgary. I find their downtown kind of cold, in some ways even more corporate than Calgary. Each downtown developed...

Yeah I'm pretty sure if it remains at its current 178m height it will be the tallest building in the area quite easily, far taller than The Guardian, for example, which is 147m and was not long ago celebrated, if I'm not mistaken, as some of the tallest purely residential buildings in Western...

That is a pretty neat idea, I don't know if I'm 100% behind the claim that this is the "greatest civic project since the 1988 Olympics," but it is for sure a really cool idea.

I think this open spot, along with the new additions, really encourages more competition for roster spots. Lazar, Czarnik, Foo, Hathaway, Mangiapane, Klimchuk, Ehliz, Lomberg, Quine, etc, all want a place on that 4th line. Last year Brouwer, Lazar, and Hathaway were 4th line regulars, with...

Not going to lie, I shouted "YES!!" when I read this. Now don't get me wrong, Brouwer seems like a nice guy and he was probably decent in the locker-room considering they gave him an 'A'. I didn't like the signing from the get-go, his highest points ever being 43. Nonetheless, he still put up...

I do generally like it, the shape, especially of the balconies, is awesome. But yeah the colours would pop a LOT more if they painted all that concrete.

Yeah I'm pretty sure it's just stock footage, you can see Brookfield still under construction behind him so it's definitely not a "reporting live on location" kind of scenario. If I had to take a guess I'd say it might be somewhere near the Bow Trail and Crowchild Trail intersection West of...

Yeah I don't love the road either but a 1-way, 1-lane road isn't too bad. Though I'd much rather prefer what outoftheice depicted, at least if I were the one living there. I see the need for retail access though. Really love this one though, design is good and I think it could really revitalize...

Is it commonplace to sign a star like him to a 1-day deal for that purpose? I really hope they do. I was hoping he'd save his retirement ceremony for some time during the season so 20,000 ish fans can see him go, but it's his choice. Content with the signings, if Janko can keep growing as a...

Wow! Didn't really think this one would go, it's pretty ambitious even without the design that looks like it came from Dubai. Any idea on start dates for anything?

Pretty irrational if you ask me. I get it, people don't want some behemoth office building in their backyard or whatever. But a 150-room hotel is neither a behemoth nor an office building. It provides people with some jobs, and, like googspecial said, helps local businesses because tourists are...

Wow! It looks really good lit up like that. Lighting feels a little bit warmer too, especially compared to Brookfield and the construction lights at Telus Sky in the background, which feel pretty cold.
