Came across renders while doing some research on the building. https://www.westcorp.net/properties/milner/ http://www.architure.ca/project/milner-building/

Clark Builders has their signs up all around the building, so I guess they're the ones working on it. Here's some pictures from late last week:

It seems like this might finally be happening. Passed by today and they were putting up fences around the building.

^ This one, I think? https://edmonton.skyrisecities.com/forum/threads/farm-m-2s-moda.31990/ http://moda.ca/farm/

Some pictures from today, mostly from the Strathearn section of the line. Starting at 85th Street and 95th Avenue: Strathearn Station: Connors Road: Tawatinâ Bridge:

Some shots from today:

^Agreed. Of all the projects proposed for the west Jasper Avenue area, I'm really glad this one in particular is moving forward. The section between 112th and 117th can use all the help it can get density-wise.

A picture by u/blairtruck from this Reddit thread, showing some of the work going on inside:

Oh totally! I'd say if you're into transit history it's well worth having both. They're great compliments because they both set out to do different things. Ride is a more generalized history, while Electric is a more specialized history. Both books are excellent works as standalones, but...

^ If you're even slightly into the city's history, Edmonton's Electric Transit is a must own. Undoubtably one of the best books covering Edmonton's growth and development in the first half of the Twentieth Century. So much of it's owed to the expansion of the E.R.R. and Hatcher and Schwarzkopf...

^Probably its relation to an important, if forgotten architect, its application of a rare architectural style nigh unseen in Edmonton, its notoriety as the city's premier example of a Great Depression-era 'home-to-apartment' conversion project, its near unrivalled sense of community owing to its...

^I'm really conflicted on this one... For those who don't know, the building in question is the old Shop-Easy corner store in Calder. It was designated a Municipal Historic Resource back in November 2016. Everyone on here will probably know me as the forum's history guy, so obviously I...

To 82nd street, where it continued eastbound down 112th Avenue (although this was discontinued with the introduction of the trolleybusses in 1939 — service down Jasper then only went to 97th Street). Here's a map of the system in 1938:

My ramblings, in case my position on here wasn't made clear enough already: This is good to see. Frankly, the whole "you've only got three days to figure this out for us" schtick the University tried pulling was disgusting. I'm glad that people rightfully called out b.s. as b.s. and they're...

The southend is the original section of the building. A two storey addition, bringing the total number of bays from five to ten, was added north of that in 1923. Two floors were then added on top of the addition in 1947. The door was moved around the same time (hence the cool Decoish sans serif...

You should be able to access it from here. In other news: https://edmontonjournal.com/opinion/columnists/opinion-shameful-to-demolish-u-of-as-historic-ring-houses

Going back to this, I was actually able to find a clip showing this old neon sign (and others) in action! I'm sure it'll be of some interest to @KyleBlanchett. This comes from an old newsreel talking about Alberta's oil field. The footage is from around 1951: And a shot looking west down...

I don't mean to spam, but that's what we get for having a thread specifically focused on some heritage buildings. I'll issue a correction here: I'm doing some research into these properties and the architects for the first four homes (the ones still standing) seem to be the Strathcona firm...

^I mentioned it in passing quite awhile back in the Aga Khan thread, but it looks like the UofA's done (or doing) some work on Soaring House, at least according to Thinkspace's website:
