I have a pretty positive perspective on things here too! I do think that Edmonton is/has been on the cusp of great change for a looong time and it's finally starting to play out, but there are def a few things that may keep Edmonton a little less desirable for developers than other cities in...

My Fantasy LRT map. 10 Lines of glorious transit investment! https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/edit?mid=1tY9alvvo7eIMpGlBb0EE5v9sP9P45Itu&usp=sharing

Isn;t that a Salt Lake City TRAX lrv? Still an interesting choice either way ig 😆 This area needed some density and cool buildings yesterday, this project better happen soon especially with the Warehouse Park plans moving forward!

They're still speaking about the end times when it comes to the mid-rise behind it that's gonna be built (I forgot what the project is called). Hopefully the new zoning bylaw will lessen the amount that this happens, reserving the flack for larger projects and developers who can take it. On...

Beljan at it again!! A great local developer and great local businesses like Frank's Pub will do wonders for 99th, I know it. It's so crazy that this road hasn't become like 109th even or something better given its location right in the middle of Strathcona.

To me it feels like 124th street in general is just on the cusp of something great, in terms of developments and pedestrian activity. It genuinely just needs more medium-density commercial, office space and mixed-use buildings especially key areas like the 107th and 111th intersections, along...

I think thommyjo agrees with you lol

Oh God 💀 I hoped I'd never hear that name again...

@jimmilegs I'm so sorry for just liking your post and NOT sharing the map 😭 My bad Here's the My Maps link If that doesn't work here's a few screenshots: A couple notes: There are 9 Lines on the map currently: Capital Line (Blue) Metro Line (Red) Valley Line (Green) Energy Line...

I mean either way, something besides parking would be nice 😁

My God what a great project! It's crazy to me how this development (along with ONE12) has transformed this entire area. Way to go Maclab :cool: 👏

C'mon you can never have enough Italian offerings in Edmontone! 🤌🇮🇹

Cool map! I also want a subway under Whyte and here's my idea: Ignore the 6 lines on the map just pay attention to the stations 😆 BRT will suffice for the time being but I believe the Whyte ave and 124th street metros are gonna happen one day.

I wonder if what I write here will be on your wall forever now... 👀

@erudyk_29 , @TheTrekMachine , me and a few other friends rode the line on Saturday around 5! Here's some of my thoughts: In terms of being a "neighborhood connector" style LRT line, it really succeeds. The stations are about as accessible as you can get, the sightlines are great and the train...

Honest Answer: Fair gates and CBTC should be brought in for the high-floor lines where they can be, such as in the grade-separated stations and sections. Even platform screen doors/gates would be interesting if possible. As for full automation, not going to happen to the LRT. Maybe when...

Hey it's all good, wasn't expecting response right away haha I appreciate the explanation of your beliefs around this, and I can understand some of your gripes around "pie-in-the-sky" thinking. In general our city council and other large players in the urban development scene do have a tendency...

Hey it adds character 😉 Also yeah, my current favourite views of Downtown/Oliver are from 104th Ave, 116th Street by the graveyard and Blatchford Park.

I will say it's interesting that this isn't the first time this has happened...

Honestly, being real, I believe that two of the reasons the architectural complexity of our projects (overall) are lower than Calgary, for example, is that a) They're hitting the housing bubble and are able to make towers with more expensive materials, but also: b) We don't have out own...
