    Calgary Retail Thread

    I think they're looking to undercut Winners/Homesense. they're going for what Superstore and Walmart offer but minus the grocery and pharmacy. If well located I think it could work but location matters. I don't see Zellers working at Chinook but I do see Zellers working at the old Atmosphere in...

    Calgary Flames Official Thread

    The flames will give Kadri his 100th game celebration (currently scheduled for the Columbus game on November 5th). After that it will be open season of trades for Kadri. As for everyone else (outside of Andersson) the flames will be cautious. I'll first state this is not me talking but what I...

    I had my doubts people would care, maybe the tide has turned. I'm not sure what they could do to bring people back, typically in politics when you start to slip it is hard to pull it back. Maybe a leader change? Conservatives always axe the leader in cases like this. Saying all this the NDP is...

    Calgary Retail Thread

    https://toronto.citynews.ca/2025/10/29/zellers-is-set-for-another-relaunch-heres-what-the-new-owners-have-in-store/ I assume this is something that could end up filing a space the size of a sport chek, atmosphere or best buy. Smart to scale it back and be a value proposition. Dollarama has...

    Calgary & Alberta Economy

    Is there any chance this could happen here? I assume 1% and 99% it would be in Quebec. If they even end up assembling them in Canada.

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

    The first phase of construction is slated to begin in 2026. It will include the condo tower and a 30-floor apartment building comprising market-rental suites and affordable-housing units. So, I assume, the podiums will be completed as part of the first phase. Meaning the third tower is no...

    When you're there, how does the community feel? Urban at all, is it busy or pretty quiet?

    Enough for a one, maybe two level parkade so it was not deep.

    Taza (Tsuut'ina Nation Development) | ?m | ?s | Canderel

    Some of the vision seems to have changed since that image was published. There's a Superstore going in west of the Costco in TAZA Exchange and now a Walmart going on that section west of the ring road. What I missed is that TAZA Crossing includes the section north of 90th Ave. They have done...

    61st Ave Residential | 64m | 19s | Cadillac Fairview | Zeidler

    It's a mistake that the city isn't stepping in with some master planning beyond the wide sidewalk between the C-Train Station and mall. The area will end up with a mishmash of standards, which is fine but will lead to an inconsistent experience property to property and block to block.

    Alberta Provincial Politics

    I know what you meant, I didn't mean to mischaracterize what you had said just meant to add to it. I was just saying they needed to use the notwithstanding clause because the alternative was a fight in court (which Ralph Klein lost when he tried to do this) or repealing the section of the...

    East Village Truman Hotel | 24m | 6s | Truman | NORR

    Yes River Hall, I couldn't think of the name in that moment. Outside of that I think Chinatown is the closest retail. I do think the brick fence should be a no, no. Once this gets on dmap I'll definitely be leaving that as a comment and writing to my councilor. I think there can be a lot done to...

    East Village Truman Hotel | 24m | 6s | Truman | NORR

    I'd argue Chinatown and that container pop-up is closest we get to near-riverwalk retail. Went for run on RiverWalk last weekend, was so nice that even in late October the Pathways still gets sun exposure.

    Taza (Tsuut'ina Nation Development) | ?m | ?s | Canderel

    It is, I think they're working on services for that section. Not a lot of room there for other tenants but I'm sure some strip mall food and bev or retail might fit.

    On another note... wonder how many of these will stand up to scrutiny? https://www.ctvnews.ca/edmonton/article/number-of-signatures-to-be-revealed-on-petition-to-keep-alberta-in-canada/ Thomas Lukaszuk, a former deputy premier of Alberta who has circulated a petition to make it official...

    Alberta Provincial Politics

    You can't expect them to repeal the Alberta Bill of Rights. It was invoked to say that it doesn't apply here. This isn't an awful deal but it doesn't move the needle at all, it is an endorsement of the status quo. If you don't know the details... I won't pretend that 12% is a great deal...

    Scotia Place | 36.85m | 11s | CSEC | HOK

    I'm just not convinced that wall that is 4 feet above grade will end up being 4 feet above 14th Ave. I also took this to show that it isn't hard to actually raise 14th Ave. I'd assume the south side of 14th Ave and east side of 5th Street will be upgraded along with the other sides of those roads.

    Alberta Provincial Politics

    Understatement of the century. I think there is something happening federally about clarifying the notwithstanding clauses use. I find it hard to gauge how much this has registered with Albertans. I think as long as the macro-Alberta economy is fine there is nothing that can be done. The...

    Weather and Gardening Discussion

    My brother works in large infrastructure construction, they work year-round, they just do less in a day which makes sense.
