Paying for parking is a hassle but a 3 hour drive from Calgary isn't?

No updates, that's just what I heard on the Oliverbahn walking tour.

I would not fret over long-term affordability of any housing class in Edmonton. Our market is just far too responsive to demand. We can't sustain a large delta between cost to build and purchase price because someone will just build new units until that delta shrinks to a typical profit...

500x goes all the way to McEwan University, unlike the Valley Line (for now).

Did Puneeta McBryan move out of downtown?

Sad gondola noises.

I presume they did it so that the A looks like a mountain peak, but I don't know if it was worth it.

I heard from the LRT operations director that the metro line and capital line could both run every five minutes through the downtown tunnels. The bottleneck is the university ave crossing.

Been wondering that too. Perhaps it's worth sending the chair an email?

Is that showing residential vacancy downtown? 11.8% seems awfully high.

I'm not the most handsome fella but this is just disrespectful.

The ease of getting on/off the train is 10/10. The integration could be a lot nicer at the Bonnie Doon stop, but being able to see a train coming and just walk directly onto the platform is huge.

Unfortunately, a lot of them are seasonal shops that close up after the holidays.

That number is disingenuous. It's taken from Calgary, where all of their stations are above ground and would need huge renovations to add fare gates.

Are you able to elaborate on this?
