^ Because they deteriorate so badly and so quickly in our climate that they make the rest of our infrastructure look good in comparison?

I have no direct connection to ECC but it’s my understanding the project was to include a number of office towers so those kinds of provisions could well have been made. What is now the Delta was to have been the first office tower until the office market collapsed and it was converted to a...

^ That petition was started on March 6, 2016. That is not a reason not to sign it but if this government has yet to pay attention, I have reservations over whether they’ll pay any more attention to this one than the myriad others that have failed from their putting ideology ahead of good...

^^ Tag me. tag me, tag me…

Does that mean you switched off the announcement to demolish because it was loaded with conjecture presented as absolute? The announcement said it will cost $150M to repurpose the building but that includes $75M in deferred maintenance of which as much as 2/3 or $50M might not be required if...

Winnipeg’s Canada Life Centre has a sunken lower bowl and has a much more urban and transparent street presence as a result.

^ There is a design for one...

Nice to see the Double E no longer hidden on this helmets. Nice to see the resiliency after that opening kickoff TD by Saskatchewan. Nice you see Tres Ford at quarterback and nice to see his stat lines, Nice to see a successful running game although having Tres Ford at quarterback probably...

Since when is simply stating a fact getting “all nit-picky”? :)

^ Hawrelak Park is municipal, this site and the RAM (and its material) are provincial. I’m not sure you can mix and match them like that. As for the cost of remediation, it’s probably substantially higher for demolition than it is for repurposing. Demolition requires complete remediation while...

It’s not a CTV survey, it’s a link to Government of Alberta survey ( https://extranet.gov.ab.ca/opinio6/s ). It’s an f’ing joke (just like their surveys on AHS and the CPP and a provincial police force etc.). It includes a grand total of three questions, one of which is the first three letters...

I’m pretty sure that site includes the hill and the park west of Grout Road at the end of River Valley Road which could provide additional - and in some respects better - access than 102 Avenue. Imagine a “figure 8” loop through the River Valley with the Funicular in the middle, this at the...

^ Sometimes all you can do is cry… :(

EPCOR Tower was never designed to “stand alone”…

This brings to mind the framed plaques and awards in Planning’s boardroom for “Best Unimplemented Plan”. I kid you not…

Except we have had developers/development in addition to Cidex commit to and complete projects in the Quarters for decades including the Brighton Block,, the Pendennis, the City Market Building, the Army and Navy, Jaffer’s two buildings, the Double Tree, National Cappuccino, the Goodridge Block...

“The” mistake? That clip is painfully bad! The North River? The shot of Husky Tower? The shot of CN Tower? Not having a Muttart shoot what talking about the Muttart? I’m sure there’s a ton more but it’s too painful to watch a second time. Hopefully it’s not one of those travelogue clips...

^ Tres Ford should have been given the ball halfway through the second quarter when it was 8-6 Elks and not halfway through the fourth quarter when the game was way out of hand (if not games ago). They’re saying they didn’t so he wouldn’t lose his confidence but they’ve probably sacrificed...

http://epaper.edmontonjournal.com/article/281655375331309 While I’m definitely not a Danielle Smith fan, blaming her or even the UCP government for decades of forestry mismanagement, particularly by the federal government in our national parks, is giving her and her government too much credit...
