    That's where the new Heritage Guideline Areas come into play, in those zones there are some architectural guidelines that reflect the original housing forms Although recent developments have probably priced me out of upgrading to a new home, if I was to it would definitely be in one of these...

    I see the "Naturezone vitamins" which was in the house at 2040 34 Ave SW first shows up in phone books in 1999 so easily 25 years+

    Broadway on 17th | 154m | 47s | Vesta | Zeidler

    Anyone know if it would shadow Haultain and/or Central Memorial parks? Both start at about 250m from the middle of the site.

    Alberta Provincial Politics

    The issue with discarding collective action and instead embracing the free market of labour is companies actively prevent you from accessing the information needed to compete. I have worked for companies that explicitly state its against policy for employees to share compensation information...

    Green Line LRT | ?m | ?s | Calgary Transit

    Does anyone have the old map that had the LRT going up the nose creek valley before jogging back west? I'm starting to warm up to that original idea and just have the BRT on Centre. Edit: found it

    I believe they are: https://www.calgary.ca/arts-culture/heritage-sites/scripts/historic-sites.html?dhcResourceId=908 Interesting: Ricardo was well-known in the Okanagan area for helping to establish the fruiting industry and spearheading the development of the Grey Canal, the biggest...

    In 2014 Chestermere approved the "Waterbridge" ASP with plans to extend Memorial to Rainbow road, with a jog north to avoid wetlands

    General Construction Updates

    With many of these conversions around 7th street this might lead to 'Downtown West' expanding a block to the east. Initially I expected this program to sprinkle residential in the core but it may instead just shrink the CDB.

    Wasn't sure of the best place to post but here is the July update of the Downtown Calgary Development Incentive Program (ie office to residential conversion) https://pub-calgary.escribemeetings.com/filestream.ashx?DocumentId=298066 So far housing for 2500+ residents

    Infill Development Discussion

    I'm loving what's happening on 19th St. I wish there was some way to improve the south side of Kensington Rd, to improve the strip between Kensington Rd and Westmount where most properties just have ugly fences facing Kensington Rd.

    Very cool. Another feature I'd like added is differentiating between a property that is having a 30 story tower built on it and one where they're putting up a sign.

    Funny note, that building was built in 1930. Very curious what it used to look like.

    Does anyone know if there are any R-CG rowhouses built in the past decade that are in the traditional form of a rowhouse, ie units face the street with normal backyards that run to the back alley? I've always been curious because it seems 100% of new RC-G rowhouses actually are being built to...
