Paying for parking is a hassle but a 3 hour drive from Calgary isn't?

No updates, that's just what I heard on the Oliverbahn walking tour.

I would not fret over long-term affordability of any housing class in Edmonton. Our market is just far too responsive to demand. We can't sustain a large delta between cost to build and purchase price because someone will just build new units until that delta shrinks to a typical profit...

500x goes all the way to McEwan University, unlike the Valley Line (for now).

Did Puneeta McBryan move out of downtown?

Sad gondola noises.

I presume they did it so that the A looks like a mountain peak, but I don't know if it was worth it.

I heard from the LRT operations director that the metro line and capital line could both run every five minutes through the downtown tunnels. The bottleneck is the university ave crossing.

Been wondering that too. Perhaps it's worth sending the chair an email?

Is that showing residential vacancy downtown? 11.8% seems awfully high.

I'm not the most handsome fella but this is just disrespectful.

The ease of getting on/off the train is 10/10. The integration could be a lot nicer at the Bonnie Doon stop, but being able to see a train coming and just walk directly onto the platform is huge.

Unfortunately, a lot of them are seasonal shops that close up after the holidays.

That number is disingenuous. It's taken from Calgary, where all of their stations are above ground and would need huge renovations to add fare gates.

Are you able to elaborate on this?

Woah, that's fantastic. Do you know when it starts? The transit app still shows 10 minutes.

That works out to about a 6% increase in service.

If the train had gone down Connor's Road redevelopment would have been focused there instead. Zoning can change and a $2B train stopping nearby makes it quite likely that it does. Again, we have no shortage of sites with potential for high density. But those projects tend to stall, as the...

Sure you would lose development opportunity on 95th street but you'd gain it along Connor's Road. Which is a pretty good trade, because it would be closer to Campus St. Jean and the U of A main campus. And 4 minutes is a big deal. If it isn't for you, does that mean you'd be happy with adding...

I'm a big fan of the development at Century Park but it's still mostly parking lots. And in Holyrood it's just the one tower with no news on subsequent phases (I would be very happy to be proven wrong on this). The other sites do have potential, but Stadium is the only one that's actually...
