    Urban Development and Proposals Discussion

    I was under the impression that Canadian Tire was a widely held company. I'm curious who you're referring to.

    They recently banned alcohol on the rooftop so it's very "tame" now. That being said, before it was banned, I never experienced rowdy parties. They definitely did happen before though, just not that frequently.

    They're very... Strategic.

    I personally think this is a petty attempt by existing landlords in Chinatown to limit competition for tenants and business.

    Blume | 48m | 15s | Remington | Systemic Architecture

    This seems like a recipe to me for making it needlessly hard to get to the ctrain. I wish one side it was raised to the level of the c-train station, kind of like how London at Heritage has one side with a "ground" 4 stories higher than the other.

    General Construction Updates

    The area around 14th and 17th seems to be heating up a bit recently. The Arlington in the NW corner of that intersection, the nearby Scarboro 17, the recently completed 1515 and then this.

    I've heard the Inglewood community objected to having two lanes each direction.

    Urban Development and Proposals Discussion

    Roads in most developing countries don't have as much exposure to salt (hotter climates) or freeze-thaw events. Those both put lots of strain on the materials.

    Avenue 33 | ?m | 5s | Sarina Homes | FAAS Architecture

    I've heard one of the issues with using brick in western provinces is a lack of skilled bricklayers. Plenty of them in Ontario, but few here. Might be a chicken and egg kind of situation!

    Your picture unfortunately doesn't show up.

    Calgary Stadiums and Arenas

    I agree on the need for a new arena, but I fail to understand how North American cities have all seemed to fall into the trap of using public money to subsidize arenas that a large percentage of the populace doesn't even use.

    Uxborough Phase 1 | 45m | 14s | Western Securities | Gibbs Gage

    It hasn't seemed to be as much of a case in Calgary, but I've read some articles that street level light rail/streetcars get political buy-in easier because they're "fancier" modes of transportation. That being said, the streetcars in Toronto which have shared right of ways with cars tend to...

    I believe BMO expansion is being looked at as part of the Victoria Park master plan.

    I hope we can eventually get to the Telus Convention Center by +15. I think our hope for that may be a future development at the Bow Tower south lot.
