HAHAHAHA you must be new to the city of edmonton. Finished on a deadline, seriously you're killing me. Open night mic night for you.

Yeah, the city doesn't really do deadlines (well) anymore. Construction just pops up randomly, seemingly takes forever, you never know.
According to our previous mayor deadlines were too difficult, but I think it was just too politically embarrassing when they kept on missing them.
He's gone now but the lack of rigorous approach to planning seems to have persisted at least so far. I think some on council get how this lack of care approach irks citizens, but unfortunately not enough of them yet.

Most of the fencing is gone for the 'pit' at 103/103.

I can see parents bringing their kids to skate while they go shopping for food.

Really hope there are enough folks working in the core to compliment residents to make the City Market viable longer-term.

City Market will be a closer walk for me than Save-On! Moreover I can always use the pedways for the trek home if the weather is crap. I hope this grocery store will run more competently than Sobeys on 104 St.
p.s. I remember Woodward's Food Floor in the lower level of ECC. It closed down about a year after I became a resident of downtown Edmonton.

This City Market is certainly a lot more convenient for most downtown dwellers than the 109 st Save On. I live 5 blocks away from the latter and I'll still probably go to the City Market in the winter because I can walk a block to the LRT and not expose myself to the elements, or drive, for example.

Sure, but many head to Walmart or Superstore due to price and so here's hoping convenience rules the day.

They're open from 9-8 today, still waiting to hear back about their full hours (their store isn't on the website yet, and the number on their Facebook page is for the Brewery District location)

It's a bit smaller than Brewery, so I'm curious the amount of produce/dry goods. It might not 'meat' everyone's expectations. Another great lunch/dinner take-out option however.

^which will be heavily dependant on area workers. Those are high margin sales and incredibly important to the bottom line.
I recall Sobeys 104th seeing something like 25% of overall revenue from that kind of sale and my guess is that it was the majority of the overall profit.

I stopped in this morning and it was quite nice inside - busy with people checking it out. Your full range of groceries, albeit smaller quantities of each considering it's not a full-size CityMarket like in Brewery.
