But what an ugly building!

Oh yeah. I wasn't throwing any shade. I love that stuff. And its not like a fast food place like Koryo is pretending to be authentic Korean barbeque (or authentic Korean cuisine more generally). It is its own thing, and that's just fine.

Huh. Seems like there are far fewer locations than there used to be. The GTA is apparently now down to just the Eaton Centre location. That's too bad. I always liked it (especially their weird not-remotely-Korean orange "barbeque" sauce).

Koryo Korean is another Calgary-born fast food franchise.

I'd love it if they painted the brick (maybe white?). Still, this will be a great addition/replacement to that area of the commercial core.

The glass is good quality. Just wish there was more of it.

That video says it all. Does anyone think that (admittedly amusing in its own clown-esque way) ceremony represented the early history of the Calgary community? That's how "western heritage" is and always has been represented in Calgary. "Western heritage" is a theme park run by the Calgary Stampede.

Doesn't every city in North America have a history that includes some land, sky, woods, and some horses?

God please no.

I just noticed the porte into the courtyard. It looks awesome.

I hate Calgary's obsession with puny two-storey podiums. Feels small town.

I feel like this one might look better once the balcony glass is installed (as long as its something decent)?

Based on that marketing, if they haven't retained Bjarke Ingels Group to design this, we riot.

How dare you place a red x over Bottlescrew Bill's? That place is god-damned institution.

Podium looks a bit taller than I imagined from the renders... that's a pleasant surprise (though its still too short).

Great shot. Its starting to look pretty, pretty, pretty dense.

A couple hundred more of these types of developments in the inner city please and thank you.

If one could wave one's magic wand and fill all of the parking lots adjacent to the CPR rail line through downtown with developments like this (bridging the gap between Beltline and CBD), it would take Calgary's city centre to the next level.

How is there no grocery store in Bridgeland yet?

Eau Claire has advantages though: proximity to the river/prince's Island park and Chinatown. It just needs to leverage them.
