    Valley Line LRT | TransEd/Marigold | City of Edmonton

    Why are they paving west of 102 street? Isn't work on the remainder of the line supposed to start immediately after the first half opens? Guess they're tired of waiting to figure out when their own opening date for the first half will be.

    Valley Line LRT | TransEd/Marigold | City of Edmonton

    I really hope the city restores the wild rose garden and pathways once the bridge work is finished.

    Valley Line LRT | TransEd/Marigold | City of Edmonton

    What's up with those textured glass panels? If anywhere, they should be installed along the bottom of the shelter, not the top. They're a little too psychedelic sixties for my taste but whatever.

    Tower 101 | 175m | 50s | Regency Developments | DER + Associates

    I'm going to unwatch this thread until something happens on that site. It's such a depressing, despicable corner...

    Winspear Centre Completion Project | 29.87m | 4s | Winspear Centre | Andrew Bromberg

    Yes, but only when a sound engineer that is familiar with the Winspear is used for performances there. Many touring acts use their own sound guy, and if things are turned too loud it completely ruins the "world-class" rating for that particular performance. I saw Madeleine Peyroux there during...

    Glenora Park | 81.99m | 22s | ONE Properties | Wallman Architects

    Me and the greyhound walked up Groat on Saturday to admire this beauty. I forgot to bring ear plugs, but otherwise it was a lovely stroll.

    Connect Centre | 56.3m | 16s | ONE Properties | DIALOG

    This thread is already off-topic AF, but your comment here gives me pause because it entertains an intriguing possibility. What if the federal government somehow presented an attractive enough argument to WestJet that convinced them to run operations out of Calgary and Edmonton simultaneously...

    Hat @ 122 | 35.96m | 12s | Cidex Group | NORR

    We're going to need more closet space for all of these hats...

    At least it'll get completed someday, unlike Canada Place...

    10123 106 Street | 24m | 7s | Westrich Pacific | Arc Studio

    I'd like to see this get built without any height reduction. Wishful thinking, maybe.

    Glenora Park | 81.99m | 22s | ONE Properties | Wallman Architects

    She's a beaut. I miss living near Groat. I'll have to park at the old museum grounds one of these days and take the greyhound for a walk around the area. It'll be nice to see the changes to the ravine/west Jasper vistas firsthand.

    Winspear Centre Completion Project | 29.87m | 4s | Winspear Centre | Andrew Bromberg

    True, although I'd wager that most cosmopolitan and metropolitan centres have crap architecture right next door to gems. Private development is the wild west after all, and correct me if I'm wrong but it's only in recent years that design committees have become popular. We could do worse...

    The Flats - Rossdale | 35.05m | 10s | Parkwood | Dub Architects

    No kidding...older cities like Baltimore and Philly have given this Edmonton boy "row house envy" for many years. Edmonton's river flats are the perfect neighbourhoods for those structures.

    The Parks | 146.91m | 45s | 35s | 13s | Pangman | Hariri Pontarini

    I am scared that this single tower will get built and then plans for the taller tower, podium and everything else will be scrapped after the entire site is levelled, leaving one squat little tower surrounded by yet another empty lot in the heart of the city. The saddest part is that this is not...

    CNIB Redevelopment | 106m | 32s | ONE Properties | Wallman Architects

    When I was a kid, my aunt lived in Jasper House. Her apartment was a ninth floor unit, with a gorgeous view of the river valley below. I used to visit for sleepovers. I'd bring pajamas and my 45 records, and sit in the window ledge and watch the city below. Nice to see this tower getting some...

    The Flats - Rossdale | 35.05m | 10s | Parkwood | Dub Architects

    The excess humidity this week makes the greenery in Rossdale look almost tropical lol. Nice to see some development in that area.
