Fixed that for ya. Don't kid yourselves. Knowing some insiders at Westjet, this ain't gonna be Edmonton's saviour.

60 737 Max 10s. So what? This doesn't change anything.

Gooch. What kind of developer looks at that firm's history and then screams "take my money". There's so much to say, which is 'nuff said.

Three words: refrigerator-cladded exterior. Years ago, it was said that the architect refused to sign off on the material the developer eventually installed on the exterior. I'm not clear on the spec, but it sounded like cladding used for commercial cold storage, or maybe commercial walk-in...

Every modern underground parking I've seen (and I've in the North American real estate business for a few decades) has gated or ungated parking just inside the parkade entrance for guests, and then secure-ish gated parking for residents further into the parkade. In most progressive urban...

Incredible how this view to the SE looks so modern compared to the postcard views we're used to seeing that view to the NW. (And yes I get the reasons why.)

This had almost no effort or true strategy in it. You look at the shopping list of uses they proposed and it read like planning department pr0n. Throw everything at it including High Line steps. Honestly, there was no demand for what they were proposing, hence total failure. It threw hail Marys...

From parts northern? West north west? Northwest? North north west? North? North east north? Northeast? East north east? Lots of unhappy places to choose from.

Let me introduce you to the novel concept of underground parking. Am I really having to explain this ?!?!?!?!?

Surface @#%&*^@#(*&@%#R(&*%@&# parking? Pathetic. Urban design, Edmonton-style?

Whaaaaaa!!!!!! One more old-world European restaurant bites the dust. I've been to the downtown location several times but it's never felt busy. I miss the Hardware Grill too. Once upon a time, there was a funky restaurant downtown that kicked serious butt.

Sorry to go off topic here but have you ever seen Democrat redistricting? It makes Pollack looks like Mondrian. Some of the districts in Chicago look like a literal axe and saw were taken to them. Both sides are equally guilty.

^ ^^ Oh Edmonton. Carry on with your cartoon architecture. Carry on.

Can't happen fast enough. Their projects are a blight. I suppose I could say bon voyage but I'd rather say don't let the door hit you on the way out.

Ugh. Permanently damaged my eyes looking at that Hillbilly Hilton. Hand me an ice cream scooper so I can scoop out my now-useless eyes.

Fountains are colonial. Question answered. Mike drop. 🤪

^ ^^ ^^^ ^^^^ ^^^^^ Have so many forgotten about the failed indoors farmers market in the Boardwalk & Revillon buildings? Edmonton has nowhere enough nearby population, workforce or tourism draw to make an enclosed farmers market successful. That didn't stop someone from being convinced they...

Back in the early 00s yes, but I can't speak to today.

AC still uses 50-52 a lot, unfortunately. It'd be ok if they were flying a tiny plane to those gates. Instead they bring in A320s and the like and the resultant bottlenecking in the terminal gets worse and worse. Terminal staff put up with a lot of clueless people that line up in that area and...
