    Calgary Flames Official Thread

    They're done, someone stick a fork in them! At this point there isn't a single soul out there who believes they'll make the playoffs. Time for a 100% full on rebuild, and I mean an actual rebuild.

    For people even more olderer than O-Tac and Cameronhowe, how about the days when Red Robin offered free apps such as Fries, dried pork spare ribs, and wings, spring rolls, meat balls etc between 3:00pm and 5:00pm? Yep that's right, free as in no charge, go ahead and pig out.

    Second attempt Looks like they are going with stucco/EIFS for this.

    Like him or hate him, Farkas seems like a guy who will go after something, so here's hoping.

    Calgary Transit

    I don't know what CT's goals are, but I imagine these kiosks are rented out, so there shouldn't be a downside for CT. I don't know what Bridgeland's numbers are today, but it was one of the lowest in 2005. I'm guessing it'll be a lot busier with all of the new development around Bridgeland.

    The zero enforcement thing is bizarre.

    It's a project called SAIT Mixed Use. I'll copy the post over to the thread.

    Calgary Then and Now

    Not the perfect comparison, but it gives a decent idea of how much has changed over the years 1987 Now

    Calgary's Downtown Population

    The fact the boundaries are based more on jobs makes sense as to why almost a third of Calgary's downtown boundary is are with no residential (the Stampede grounds)

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

    For CF investing in residential near Chinook seems like an easy win-win. Their investment also adds 590 units next to their mall, plus it could potentially be a catalyst for more development which in turn could up the value of their mall and their residential project.

    Calgary's Downtown Dilemma

    Giving a ticket to a homeless guy for littering is a waste of everyone's time. We know it won't get paid, and what can they really do if he doesn't pay it? They need to take a run at solving the root cause. I know there's only so much the city can do within its power, but even if they could...

    I had forgotten about so many of those proposals. The ones that I would have been happy to see today are FCC II, The Cascade tower, and Plaza 75. I think all three would have aged decently, especially FCC II would would still be an interesting tower. The original Bankers Hall design was very...

    Exactly. Seems mostly for publicity.

    Lots of publicity coming out of this one day blitz. Drive past Century Gardens on Monday, and it'll back to the usual.

    Calgary's Downtown Dilemma

    I'd give it a few days. Anyone arrested won't be held any longer than that. Those given a ticket to pay a fine probably don't have the money to pay for it. IMO, it's nothing more than a publicity stunt. I'm all for extra policing around the core, but only to a certain extent. If the extra...

    It's the building I most wish was built during that boomtime. There was a 75 storey tower and another 60ish floor one, but this one would have still been a cool building today.
