I had a night to forget there on a friends 18th birthday.

I think we all did

I dunno, I miss Tantra

We still haven't had anything that comes close to replacing Tantric Tuesday! (in terms of mid-week nightlife)

Aside from maybe 6th ave in EV, no stretch of street has seen so much change. Very cool comparison.

9th Ave in Inglewood, west of 10th Street SE, does okay:

July 2009

June 2023

I'd love to see photos Marda Loop pre-2006. I remember it had like a 1-storey stripmall where that tan condo building is now with the Shoppers and Phil & Sebastian's. There was a vacuum rebuilder and a thrift store. And of course the blue metal thing over the intersection of 20th and 33rd, which was painted black and moved nearer to Crowchild.

Same with 9th street in Bridgeland. There have been some sweet successes for Calgary in the past decade.

Even 10th street in Kensington has seen a lot of change with Lido, The Kensington, St Johns and Theodore.

 

[Chinook Arch]

10th Ave SW, 10th Street NW, 6th Ave in EV, 9th in Bridgeland have all seen some big changes, but 10th Ave., has definitely seen the biggest density change.

 

[dazzlingdave88]

Don't forget 1st SW, south of 12 ave.

Love how the abandoned construction from Place 10 is a design feature in this one!

There's a Marda Loop history project working on this, and also looking for photos www.visitmardaloop.com/history

Stayed true to the rendering. It would've been awesome to see another 5-10 of these being built right now in the Beltline/Core. These sort of tower designs may be generic but they're still solid at serving a functional purpose in the health of an urban core.

Especially with the CRU facing the underpass it's better than most

The ground level turned out great
