I'm not playing in the same league as the Clifton or any of the above but my take would be what you get with Clifton that you don't with those: Have to believe the finishes are of the highest quality Facing a much quieter street than any of the above Maybe the biggest factor would be they are...

Looks like recommendation 8 had a twin arena replacing Coronation which does not appear to be happening. Also recommendation 3 looked at a twin arena replacement of Oliver and Westwood which arguably was replaced by only 1 surface in the downtown community rink...

I don't have a strong opinion but it's certainly a choice to support new areas better than existing ones. Commonwealth rec center is fantastic but i would argue it isn't at the same level as the likes of The Meadows, Terwillegar, or even the new Lewis Farms facility. The downtown community rink...

I see Porter has added a 4th daily YEG-YYZ flight starting sometime in June which will be a red-eye departing YEG at 11:50PM arriving YYZ 5:30AM.

Unfortunately a dismal march for YEG pax numbers with Domestic in particular getting crushed. On the bright side transborder is going strong and will look to make further gains in the months to come with United up gauging planes and Atlanta coming online for Westjet towards the end of April...

For what it's worth this article from 2019 says "Blatchford is designed to house to up to 30,000 people when complete. The aim is to make it a sustainable community with its own geothermal district energy facility." https://globalnews.ca/news/5102112/edmonton-blatchford-townhouse-builders/

Cool data pulled together for Westjet activity at some of the bigger (non YYC) airports in Canada by zahav on SSP. YEG is quite close to YYZ now in number of flights but still not quite there for seats because YYZ no longer has Q400 flights. Week of Aug. 12-18, 2024 YVR Total flights this...

Cool video on the broadway subway in Vancouver. I know different pressures on housing there than us (with all our land) but this is the sort of project I would love to see one day between Bonnie Doon and University. Cool for them to be featured on B1M.

I absolutely factor in traveller preference and demand and paired that with factors that airlines consider. I also looked at the current landscape with airlines and possibilities for what they could provide. I am as big of a YEG booster as anyone but I feel confident I’ve outlined an objective...

100% which is why I said south because flights to the states, Mexico, and Caribbean make up a big chunk of the flights that would be at question.

YEG has a lot of things going for it and some things going against it. Looking at the landscape of the Canadian market population growth is essential but a market our size being the 5th largest airport by passengers flown is a tough hill to climb. It doesn't mean there aren't opportunities or...

A targeted approach to get more supply built (potentially) using this only for new builds. For some places this will be helpful in that regard, though it will have it's upward pressures on prices overall. What does this mean for our market in Edmonton? I don't think we have a supply issue but...

Who knows maybe timing could work out and get lucky again here in the next year or two if interest rates go down a little bit, the city offers some sort of incentive for units to get started, & population growth continues to lower vacancy. The area however slowly is improving.

A rebuttal on the municipal golf course discussion. https://edmontonjournal.com/opinion/columnists/opinion-in-defence-of-edmontons-city-run-golf-courses

That bevel in the floorplate helps make the proportions look really nice from this angle.

Looks like there was a little update today for Westjet noting they are updating YOW and YUL to year round daily service which is nice, most certainly to keep up with Porter on those routes.

That was a very positive video for sure, nice change of pace from what can be a sea of negativity. Would be a good video to share with prospective new residents.

Next phase won’t be far behind if they are truly selling this well.

The thing about our Muni golf courses if they are affordable and accessible for those in the city looking to enjoy the game. There aren't a ton of options for public golf without going to the outskirts or even outside city limits. If they eliminate those and turn them into public parks that...

South terminal is should get some love pre and post security according to the new master plan along with the baggage claim area. I would sure love a water feature somewhere, nice to look at, listen to, be near.
