Aerial pic of downtown from 2010. I would kill to see this same shot today. I would guess there would be around 30 or so new highrises in this angle?
A few skyline shots from July 2002. I'm going to force myself to go take some shots of the same angles this coming July.

Anyone have any info on the shopping centre opening soon (2026) in Belmont. This is the one on 194th, not the big one they're going to be building on 210th in 2027+

Got the same angle on Google Earth, which is recent enough to show 4SL almost complete, but not the Truman trio u/c. Also expanded it out up and down, to see some of the action in East Village and the 11 St area.
Definitely would be awesome to see an actual photo though. I wonder how it was taken? Must have been from a helicopter
You can really see the difference. Some of the buildings that stood out in 2002, simply blend in now and are almost un-noticeable.

A modest Christmas gift to the forum. If anyone is wondering what's planned for the fenced-off site on 14th in Kensington with the "Porte" signage on it, they've finally submitted a new DP for the site. Nothing exciting, but it would be nice to get that lot filled in. 104 units, architect is CTZN.

Nice. I take it this is the former Sola site:
calgary.skyrisecities.com
It is great to see Porte going all in for Calgary. They have purchased a couple of the Sarina ones in Marda Loop I think, and have 3 development projects at least (this one, 17th Ave and Currie Barracks).
SOLA | 26.21m | 9s | Ocgrow | Riddell Kurczaba

Not sure if this belongs here but I came across this expansion to the Winter Club.

The interesting thing from the article is that 34th use to be the main street with the streetcar line and 33rd became the main street when it switched to bus service. So, does Kensington have ready-made secondary main street with older charming homes? They have the latter but do they have the former?
