    General Construction Updates

    And that's only if you move the forgotten construction & detour signs out of the way

    Is it just me or does that proposal look like they're just adding to the existing building? https://www.google.com/maps/@51.0529766,-114.087311,3a,75y,106.25h,90t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sh7kIPDJCBGAxNBlMr_0aaA!2e0!7i13312!8i6656

    Calgary Bike Lanes and Bike Paths

    Had a chance to use the new 24th ave bike lanes this morning, I think it's been mentioned before but they are quite good. I was skeptical of the ups and downs across driveways and roads but they did a pretty good job at keeping those smooth. I also really enjoyed having priority all the way from...

    Calgary Bike Lanes and Bike Paths

    We've put 160km on the bike (it has a digital odometer) so still fairly new but we are using it everyday and no complaints. With 2 kids on the back (~70 lbs) I can make it up the paved path behind the Calgary Curling club with only minimal effort. You can carry a conversation (and smile) with...

    Calgary Bike Lanes and Bike Paths

    Our family has always been a 1 car household. My spouse and I both have been fortunate to work downtown for most of our careers and have intentionally picked inner city neighbourhoods to live in which has helped facilitate this choice. We both bike into work and continued to do so with kids...

    You definitely caught me in this pic, had a I known I'd had come say hello. And it wasn't our group calling it the arena, I would have corrected them

    Not quite, site underwent extensive remediation for multiple years before it received it's certificate. Remediation even extended into the alley going east on the south side of 20th ave

    The level of detective work watching this project is what makes this forum so great. Someone will be putting hairs across the gates next

    Urban Development and Proposals Discussion

    Why isn't it a requirement for all condo buildings to have ground floor bike storage? How does that become the minimum and not the exception? Same goes for office buildings, I'm currently parking on P5 buried in a corner and have to contend with ridiculously steep parkade entrance / exits...

    Saw the sign up today for this project on Center St: https://developmentmap.calgary.ca/?find=DP2022-00478 Would have been nice to see more of the parking lot dedicated to the proposed patio and consideration given to removing the Center St parking access For reference this is what the current...

    Noticed that wood framing has resumed on this long stalled project, good to see some life again. Can't remember the name of it or if there is a thread. https://developmentmap.calgary.ca/?find=DP2022-00505

    Calgary Restaurant Thread

    https://www.deepaksdhaba.ca/ Tried out this newish spot on Center Street last week and was really impressed. Cool spot with just a couple tables and bar seating puts you right next to the kitchen so you can watch. They have all the curries and more frozen as take away options. And they...

    Calgary Flames Official Thread

    And for those that like the random stats, 7 straight home wins is a new NHL record. Which makes me also wonder how many times has an NHL team even had 7 + straight home games?

    Infill Development Discussion

    Now we just need a dedicated bike lane on 20th Ave, lower speed limit to 40k, and add on-street parking on 4th between 16th Ave and 22nd Ave where the road already narrows to single lane. Heck there should be a dedicated bike lane on 4th all the way to the Superstore - to think a direct route...

    Calgary Flames Official Thread

    The team is really balanced right now: best line in league, solid 3 d lines (all contributing offense), depth scoring, good goaltending and one of if not the toughest team in the league. That last point is really starting to bear fruit and seeing how it impacts other teams playing us (I was at...

    Canada Men's Soccer

    Hopefully long gone are the days when players like Owen Hargreaves feel like they need to leave to make their mark. Soccer is the most played team sport amongst kids in Canada and finally having a world class team to cheer for will only help. Our best star players are so young I'm really excited...

    I thought the same but didn't consider the permutations of Panama, US and Mexico playing each other in the remaining games. Bottom line we need to take care of our game first

    Canada Men's Soccer

    We need a 9 point cushion over 4th after next game to qualify (and a better goal differential which looks good right now). We don't want to be 4th and go through the playoff. We're close but the next round won't get us there yet.

    Covid-19

    Didn't know that. Before our experience with them I had believed them to be a useful (albeit imperfect) tool for testing before going somewhere (like a family Christmas party). I look at them now more like a tool to quickly check if your symptoms are positive and to alleviate pressure on the...
