Are there any drawings on how the intersection will look like? I recall reading somewhere that the LRT line will go underneath 23 ave.

I rode it just before the pandemic hit. First and last time...😞

A lot less surface parking that earlier versions, it there going to be underground parking for D, G, H, I?

Thanks for volunteering! it was a great event and I think it showed our city very well. Two disappointments for me: I thought there would be more spectators, I guess the weather played a part and that the finishing hill is not hard enough to make a selection. I don't think we will get a Pro Tour...

Second the thoughts on the MUP. I was hoping kids could use it to bike to Windermere currents from Terwillegar. This proposal looks like a Wipeout obstacle course. People in the area have suggested a pedestrian bridge on 156 Street. Cartmell townhall is on the 19th, seems I have a reason to log...

This is a great compliment.

I was in the building for the first time last week. As much as I dislike the exterior, the interior is great, I like the amount of light inside, the plants, even the brick everywhere is not something very usual. Given our weather it is nice to have all those services in a big building with...

Will be very interesting to see pictures of the inside of the units once it's finished. I like how the building looks now, hoping for a more elegant finish than the multi color panels in the renders.

The Seagram in Manhattan is mid to late 50s. I thought the dancing house was mid 90s. We don't hear much about 80's architecture but appreciation for modernism was perhaps making a comeback and exploded in the 90s with Foster, Gehry, Herzog and de Meuron, Hadid, etc.

Add a mountain bike "flow" downhill trail from the top at Victoria road down to the baseball diamond by the Glenora clubhouse and you have my vote.

Raises the standard for the area a bit. I don't understand why no one tries designing these things with a central turf grass, restaurants on the first floor and the office space above or in a small tower. They will already have underground parking, why don't give the surface back to people...

Judging from my community FB page, #1 topic is lost pets, #2 people want empty bottles, #3 people hate the black/green bin, #4(seasonal) street/alley has not been plowed.

At the North Saskatchewan south bridge they are widening the supports at the top of the columns. The work is happening under the highway, not noticed from the top but I have seen workers when I am cycling in the area. They have also cordoned off the area under the sections where they are...

There were pictures of 4 options for the site plan on the U of A real estate thread. Hope they try something different around the commercial area like a smaller grocery and street level retail on 48st leading into that park. Also they should push all parking underground, I think the location can...

Sound like the current opinion consensus on the river valley is conservationists and hikers hate on bikers, runners kind of take a wait and see approach and everyone hates on golfers. General public just want planters, benches, BBQs and being able to legally drink.
