    A video I stumbled across from Calgary 1975. The start has some kick ass aerial video flying around downtown Calgary. See if the link from the AP archives works or not...

    Up early on a Saturday, thought I'd take advantage and see if there was any good sunrise light on downtown; this is what I saw: Sunrise Reflection Calgary by ferreth, on Flickr

    I updated my photos of the Meadows Mile Professional Building Construction before Snowzilla II hit yesterday. Second level floor was poured on Monday, by Friday the concrete columns are done and they are well on their way with the forms for the 3rd level. Definitely moving along. I'll just post...

    SE BRT update. I had a bit of extra time so rode up the hill to at least peek at the progress on 17th Ave SE. I was surprised, not even pavement yet on some of the bus lane areas - they want to start training November 1st for bus drivers, so they better hustle! BRT Bridge Pano: BRT Bridge...

    Wednesday last week shots of the BRT Bridge over the irrigation canal. Progress, but they have a long way to got to be open for mid November. I'm thinking they may open it to bus traffic by then, but the pedestrian part will wait until spring? From the south: BRT Irrigation Canal Bridge...

    A quick update for the Professional Building at Meadows Mile. They are now featuring it on the Meadows Mile Website. Turns out the site is two buildings ("coffee house" and professional building). Looks pretty nice from the updated renderings. They are saying Q2 2019 opening. The access road is...

    Nope! But it's close. If you try to look it up on a hotel booking site, they are taking bookings for late October IIRC. I suspect a soft opening may happen any time now.

    I'd be good with 30 or 40 on side streets. Anything that is a feeder road in the community should be 50. If you can see a painted center line, speed = 50km/hr, if not, 30 or 40 km/hr. Yes, cars would have to slow down if the road is snow covered. The city would have to paint a few more roads...

    Nope, Holiday Inn is still being worked on slowly, although they are finally getting air conditioners installed, so they are crawling closer to the finish line. Pacini's is advertising they are opening soon "Beside the Holiday Inn". Kind of a strange way to put it, but since the sign is on...

    Thanks to the rain, I actually had enough time today to catch up my photos and post my Thursday walkabout through Meadows Mile. It's difficult to get there some days as the professional building cement pour is right at the entrance to Blackfoot Point - some days it looks like you can't walk down...
