    Bluestone | 78m | 18s | Amble Ventures | NORR

    Not good. Don’t care if this ever gets built. There are so many proposals and projects on the go better than this that I don’t mind if it dies on the drawing table.

    I filled out the survey and participated in engagement and feedback….they didn’t do very much of what I suggested haha.

    Are those the official renderings of Stephen Ave? In the bottom they say that these are conceptual and subject to change. If they are the official renderings, then this is a pathetic effort. No more historical looking lamp posts? I agree the grey and black look sterile and dull. The street was...

    The Broward | 19m | 6s | Truman | MoDA

    Brick portion looks fantastic! White section looks like trash…still would have preferred to keep the old brick apartment building.

    Stampede Station | 277.3m | 71s | Truman | NORR

    Sasso and Vetro are not terrible, I think of a dozen worse looking buildings. I agree that Nuera is far worse. The reality is nowhere near what they proposed in the renderings.

    As expected…disappointing.

    Awesome! I also think 4 towers is a little much. I would be happy with 3. Take out the south west tower, move the NW tower into the middle between the two east towers

    Eau Claire Place II | 68m | 17s | Pacific Reach

    Low end lipstick on a pig. Why the hell does the black reclad not wrap around the entire top floor of the building? I think these two Eau Clare office conversions have to be the ugliest by far in the city. The only hope is the white paint is a primer and the finished product turns out a little...

    Stampede Station | 277.3m | 71s | Truman | NORR

    Way back in the early 90’s (when it was legal or no one really cared to look into it), my dad used to set up a fruit stand right in front of the piss ramp and sold B.C. cherries. There was a guy selling cowboys hats beside him, another guy sold baked potatoes, and the guy across the street in...

    Plaza | 109m | 33s | Cantiro | GEC

    I don’t mind it. Provides a bit of a different flavour than what we normally see. I like the dark look wirh the splash of red. Materials and quality will determine if it works out in reality.

    To build off this, imagine getting one or two mega concerts to play this new stadium during stampede….a Stamps game would probably also sell out being so close.

    The more I see it, the more I don’t want the grandstand to become a CFL stadium. The grandstand is kind of a dump. A city of our stature can certainly build a modern 25-27,000 seat stadium that is expandable for larger events. Build the new stadium up where the bus barns are located. Coke stage...

    I would like to see the stampede buy the Remington? Lands, just north of the new arena that is a massive parking lot now, next to the bud barns. Would be a great site for a new stadium that could also hold coke stage shows. Or else build a new coke stage where the Saddledome or agriculture...

    Glenbow Museum | 43m | 9s | DIALOG

    So painfully slow this one....I just want to see the exterior finished, especially the top corner. It looks like it will have to be spandrel as there are interior walls behind it. Does not appear that it will be fully transparent.

    This should 100% be modelled off a European street and look more historical to match the surrounding buildings.

    Palliser One | 122m | 27s

    I don’t remember, is the whole building being converted to residential or just the top half?

    River Club | 56m | 15s | Urban Capital | DIALOG

    Agree with everyone else. Prefer the original but this is also pretty good. The original was a little more unique. I liked the curved balconies. I still like River West towers because of the curved balconies on those ones.

    Potato camera picture from atop the Calgary Tower this morning. You can start to make out the shape of the foundation.
