Welcome to the 'hood!

It's so neat to see proposals with solar panels on the roof. If the economics of solar energy continue to improve, it is exciting to see the large spaces on top of condos and offices to be utilized.

So this is right next McKernan Gates, right? This is awesome for the level of sustainability and density in the area.

Yeah, to the immediate east. It is about time we see this type of density, since these sites are adjacent to the U of A and there is a definite need for more (newer) student rental housing in the area.

Woof. It was already not great, now it is downright terrible.

Mundane rather than "terrible" -- reminds me of the time in my youth when Santa nigh on promised me an electric train set and I got a Fort Apache model instead (cheap Claus, cheap I say!) And, by the way, mundane is almost worse than "terrible" because it calls up the memory of something that was exceptional replaced by the equivalent of a television test-pattern.

The single circular window makes it terrible.
