    It's unfortunate. I always think of the old expression 'perception is reality' My perception of the train has been fine, but I'm done with trying to convince people it's fine when they have a different perception. All it takes is a bad experience or a story of a bad experience and the damage is...

    Definitely a stop at the hospital. That's the one my son uses if they take the Max Orange. Someone posted a pic of a prep work for Max Orange stop in front of one of the buildings on University Ave (can't recall which building)

    Those are my two gripes. The cycle lane was a huge miss, but something that can still be rectified. My understanding is Max Orange will have stops right on the avenue, which will be nice. My 13 year old son and his friends go there a fair bit to hang around and be urban. Definitely not the...

    Calgary Municipal Politics

    I was hopeful for a while there, but ward 1 went to Kim Tyers, who's very conservative. In the end we are pretty much where we were before the election, is tat correct? 8 conservative councilors to the 6 progressive councilors, but with the change of a progressive mayor to a conservative mayor...

    Interesting. Even though Brooklyn is an American name, I'd be okay with it, given New York's rich history etc.. Have they decided on a new name yet?

    Calgary Flames Official Thread

    They lost a close one to a good team. Can't ask for too much more than that. I don't think the Flames will have the same season they did last year, but as bad as this season has started, at least they can look at the teams they've played and point out that all of the losses are against teams...

    Office Space Conversion

    Oh wow, this is much better than I expected. I was disappointed at the loss of the mid-century modern facade, but the proposed facade looks really good.....so far.

    General Construction Updates

    Whatever it turns out to be if it's protruding, you'd think the city could have moved it 2' to the right or a foot to the left so it wasn't in the middle.

    Good to hear there was lots of interest. It's been a while since we've seen interest from locals for a high rise condo.

    Is this a location for a crosswalk pole or light standard? It looks to be right in the middle of the bike lane area.

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

    A fair sized population around the area, and it's growing steadily. The counts aren't 100% reliable and says the numbers are from 2025 'estimates' but with so much construction and new builds in the area it's difficult to say., The statscan census tract calculator would give better results I...
