    Arris - 5th and Third | 142.03m | 42s | Embassy Bosa | Amanat Architect

    Any hints as to where in EV?

    I find the white is quite plain, I hope the dark accent color at the top gives it variety.

    The Barron | 43m | 11s | Strategic Group | Gibbs Gage

    Whatever people might think of Caili’s and Cowboys, that corner was always busy. The gleaming new towers look good in the skyline, but completely sucked the street life from that part of downtown.🤬

    I like the old school spandrel on that building. I hope they leave it.

    Total nimby 🙁 instead of putting gates, make changes to better control the bad elements. One way road lane and limited parking could work.

    I didn’t know we had so many of these projects underway. When you see them in a list it’s impressive.

    This place is fantastic.

    Rivers Edge | 20m | 6s | GBS | NORR

    I agree about the location and the vehicle access. I think it’s more of a perception thing, in reality vehicle access hasn’t changed very much, but the perception might be that vehicle access is limited. On The flipside, having the street closed could also be a plus. Less traffic and you won’t...

    Calgary’s lack of innovative and diverse options led me to search elsewhere for the city life I wanted

    Oh okay. Sorry, I misunderstood the post. I agree, and have often noticed that myself. Of all the cities around North America I have lived in or have been to Vancouver is unique. At least that’s my impression. I haven’t spent much time in California, but I could see how it might be similar to...

    The Theodore | 35.66m | 10s | Graywood | Arcadis

    A good solid add to Kensington. I hope to see more of those get built in Calgary.

    Can you clarify your comment? Where am I speaking out of both sides of my mouth? I said I prefer the diversity in Calgary and I do.

    These are great for improving density. It’s probably blaspheme to stay this on a skyscraper forum but I would rather see more of these than high-rise towers. That’s said as a fan of tall towers I still like a few high-rises here and there 😁

    Calgary’s lack of innovative and diverse options led me to search elsewhere for the city life I wanted

    I don’t think in Sweden’s case the numbers of immigrants are the problem but instead a case of not diverse enough immigration policy. My own observations comparing cities like Toronto or Calgary to a city like Vancouver reaffirms my belief that a diverse immigration policy works better than...

    I saw this on the weekend and wondered which thread it belonged to, I searched all the threads but couldn’t find it. Good population boost right near an allergy station.

    Calgary’s lack of innovative and diverse options led me to search elsewhere for the city life I wanted

    That’s exactly the way I would describe it. Much more clique-ish than what I see here in Calgary.

    C&E Station | 21m | 5s | Quantum Place

    I really, really like it. It's simple and as Adam said, by having a basic timeless time design it'll age well.

    It looks good, but whoever made the rendering forgot to add the train tracks :oops:

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

    It's a mish-mash of styles, but I'll take it. Talk about your all time great locations, right across the street from Safeway, and an LRT station!

    A few more days like today and the trees will be green. Bring on spring/summer!

    It's not just me then, 😋 lol. There were a few of us 'ex-pats' from Calgary, Edmonton and a couple of people from the Ontario who used to hang out. We spent much of our time complaining about Vancouver, especially about the people.
