    The Edmonton Method - Snow Removal

    It was weird because the major freeways were in really good shape, which kinda goes to what your friends say and the policy you mentioned, but downtown was absolutely horrendous.

    The Edmonton Method - Snow Removal

    So, I wanted to provide a little bit of a comparison. Unfortunately I do not have photos, but I was in Ottawa a couple of weeks ago for work, about a week or so after what was considered a major snowfall (the merits of calling 6-10 inches of snow a major snowfall are up for debate), at the tail...

    Massey Ferguson Building Redevelopment | ?m | 6s | Rise Real Estate | WZMH

    Guelph is about the same size as Kelowna, but it is very close to the GTA. In fact, close enough that there is a significant number of people who live there and commute to places in the GTA daily, so that does make a difference. Doesn't mean that Edmonton should keep getting crap, considering...

    Guilt By Association

    Unfortunately, not satire given the author lol

    Edmonton Real Estate Market

    You beat me to the punch

    Capital Line LRT

    But they are ineffective.... At least as far as these issues go, they are VERY ineffective

    Downtown Real Estate

    I don't see why not, especially with the whole area around the park picking up steam (even if it is with low-rises). Might take longer than we'd like, but I strongly disagree with that statement.

    Edmonton Branding and Tourism strategy

    Edmonton's food scene punches WAY above it's weight class. I have a friend who just moved back to Edmonton last September, after living in Montreal and Vancouver for the past 20 years, and she has been asking me for recommendations of places to eat (thank you foodies or SRC, because I have taken...

    Tower 101 | 175m | 50s | Regency Developments | DER + Associates

    Gosh, I went of Street View to see how the two buildings compared, and ended up going thru all the years they had (2007 thru 2025) for that intersection and it is DEPRESSING to see how more sterile and cold it became through the years. There was clearly so much more foot traffic there until...

    Edmonton Nightlife (past and present)

    Not larger than where they were before.

    High Level Bridge

    I just skimmed over this, but it is actually fascinating. The math on it is wildly interesting, too

    O-day’min Park (formerly Warehouse Park)

    Why are you ranting about this, when the issue wasn't vandalism, but weather/quality control related and is being rectified under warranty.

    The Shift | 113.08m | 38s | Edgar | MCM Partnership

    I would also wager that there's a difference regarding the risk perception for developers and property managers. If they have a reasonably high expectation that they'll be able to sell/lease these high rises quickly and start making money sooner rather than later, even at a reduced margin...

    Edmonton Oilers

    Our entire defensive system is horrible, across the lineup. There's no forechecking, no backchecking, passing lanes are left open all the time, but worst of all is there is no sense of urgency on defensive play by 90% of the roster. I honestly blame it on losing Paul Coffey and the changes made...

    Norquest Careers Skills Centre | 34m | 10s | GEC

    The lack of skilled tradesmen amongst immigrants, especially those from developing countries, stems from the fact that culturally, trades (or any kind of manual labour) tends to be very undervalued in these countries, unlike North America or Europe. It would be interesting if the government...
