    Wentworth Landing | 22m | 6s | Trico Homes | NORR

    Par for the course for a suburban build.

    Liking the amenities area.

    1405 - 4th Street | 77m | 24s | GWL | Arcadis

    The truck in the background says Tent and Event rentals, so most likely something for Stampede.

    Calgary's Downtown Dilemma

    I’m in favor of forced treatment. I recognize it’s a form of prison, but it’s better than actual prison. It at least gives someone a chance to recover and they’re looked after. Also for the public it keeps them off the streets Assuming it’s run like the jail system there shouldn’t be a wait...

    Calgary's Downtown Population

    It’s strange that the boundaries include part of Mission but not all and yet includes the Stampede grounds and Fort Calgary. Outside of that, the boundary tracks fairly well. Are there any stats from the 2011 census or earlier? Seeing as we’re making predictions, I’ll throw in my prediction...

    Love this. Build it now!

    Kensington Mixed Use | 20m | 6s | Westrich Pacific | J+S Architect

    Of all the inner city ‘destination’ neighborhoods, Marda Loop, Bridgeland, Inglewood, Mission, Beltline and Kensington, I I would still take Kensington all costs equal, but I have to admit those other neighborhoods are really evolving. They’ve come along way and easily rival Kensington these days.

    The Hat Eau Claire | 28m | 7s | Cidex Group

    Media people check into these forums regularly to at least be in the loop on developments around the city, and usually the info arrives later on in a newspaper article.

    11th Street Underpass | ?m | ?s | City of Calgary

    Agreed, for one thing the park will never ever get used. It’s absolutely the least desirable place to put a park in my opinion. You couldn’t find a worse place to put one. That and closing 11th to vehicle traffic is also stupid.

    First & Park | 75m | 18s | Graywood

    The accents make a big difference to the building. I went from not sure if I liked it to liking it once the accents were added.

    Anyone planning to travel to the US: Yay or Nay?

    Fair enough. If people are going to visit family or it’s some sort of event that they don’t have in Canada, etc. I get it. I should’ve rephrased this question to ‘Are there any people planning to travel to the US simply for vacation?’ If anyone’s going down to the US solely for vacation...

    Anyone planning to travel to the US: Yay or Nay?

    I voted no, the easiest voting decision ever. I wouldn’t spend a plum nickel going to the US. I’m also curious why four people voted yes, and what their reasoning would be? Other than being Trumpers.

    Heritage Station Towers | 79m | 27s | Westcorp | GEC

    The towers are boring as hell, but practical as hell. Given the roads they face onto and the area they’re in I wouldn’t spend a lot in making them look nice either. The run here is a few hundred units within TOD distance of Heritage station.

    Bluestone | 78m | 18s | Amble Ventures | NORR

    I don’t mind it. I’m good with the bright white and the blue accents.

    Calgary Flames Official Thread

    So after the Flames lost to Utah and Nashville I felt comfortable thinking the tank was finally underway and then they win in Anaheim a traditional graveyard for the Flames. So frustrating 😐

    First & Park | 75m | 18s | Graywood

    It’ll be interesting to see if it sells. One thing it has in its favour is the location.

    Kit at Kensington | 50m | 15s | Jemm Properties | LOLA

    Was at the Safeway earlier today and noticed they are going gangbusters. They’re drilling even though they aren’t completely done with the demolition.

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

    I have this bad feeling we’ll be stuck doing whatever the province wants. The UCP knows the deadline for the feds funding is March and they’re dragging this out so the city will have no choice but to do what the province wants. At the end of the day the UCP has all the power. At least until...

    That’s so true man! (Stole that from @haltcatchfire 😊)
