    Touch the Water Promenade / River Valley "Seawall"

    this wouldn't be an issue if we hadn't killed the privately funded gondola project. That still gets me. I understand the burial ground piece, but I feel like we threw the baby out with the bathwater. As it is, no one wins.

    Touch the Water Promenade / River Valley "Seawall"

    It doesn't add to the vibrancy of the neighbourhood because decade after decade we refuse to turn this area into anything remotely interesting. This would be the prime place to celebrate the history of the area; it's the crossroads of Indigenous and traders/settlers and could have an incredibly...

    Touch the Water Promenade / River Valley "Seawall"

    Oh lord. If we don’t see the value in the unique and amazing structure, we are truly lost as a city. I will chain myself to that building before the tear it down. Mind you with the ongoing neglect, it may just fall down on its own

    yeah we only stopped in to grab the temaki and then bought the rest of the sushi elsewhere, lol

    Not sure if this has been mentioned already, but it seems Furusato has closed. I'm not shocked since they did virtually nothing to promote the place and it always looked closed from the outside, but I will greatly miss their spicy tuna temaki. The best in the city, they were.

    I guess it depends on what you mean by infrastructure. Within a five minute walk we have a pool, skating rink, about 10 playgrounds, soccer fields, multiple mature city parks, 3 bus lines going downtown and LRT under construction, etc., which is not something you will find in the 'burbs. Most of...

    We live just up the street and we bought our four square six years ago for $420k. And the house next door to this listing sold just a couple of months ago and was listed at $499k, and it was pretty much identical to this one. They are old houses and there is more maintenance but you don’t need...

    It’s actually on par with the neighbourhood (I live a block from here). It always amazes me that people overlook these classic beauties and instead buy some suburban box for the same or a higher price. To each their own I guess

    Edmonton International Airport (EIA/YEG)

    I would love to see a name like the 'Wop May Edmonton International Airport' or something. But some like it beiger than beige. 'Edmonton International Airport' it will be for a long time....zzzzz.......

    Blatchford Development | ?m | ?s | City of Edmonton

    I just drove through Blatchford this weekend to pick up some cold ones from the Growlery.... really impressed with how this is coming along. If I wasn't happily housed in Westmount already, I would be eyeing this place up for sure. You can see the potential and with the amount of construction...

    124 Street BIA / Westmount General Discussion

    Do you know where Fox Burger is meant to be going? My guess is that little Beljan project on 106 Ave...

    We live close by and have gone to Frieda twice, both times the food was disappointing to say the least. The space is nice but yeah, the quality of the food leaves a lot to be desired. Last time we where there there was one person running the entire front of house, even though it was full. La...

    Valley Line LRT | TransEd/Marigold | City of Edmonton

    Considering how much it has already changed over the past 20-30 years, I would say the future looks bright...it wasn't so long ago that there was no MacEwan at all and certainly no Rogers Place/Ice District. Particularly with the LRT running down the middle of it, Longstreet should look...

    Think of the cars, Barnaby! Think of the cars! You can't expect them to take a block detour, that would be inhuman

    The Jameson | 53.95m | 17s | Open Sky | Acton Ostry

    You clearly don't spend any time at this park. I'm there daily (virtually) and I can tell you that it is a VERY busy park that definitely could use expansion.

    The Jameson | 53.95m | 17s | Open Sky | Acton Ostry

    Haha I was just scrolling down wondering when IanO would pipe in to defend cars... and here it is. I love this proposal and I don't see any real reason not to shut it down for cars. It's not an important north/south connector, come on. There is so little traffic on this street because basically...
