The Carnegie Library — Forgotten Edmonton
In the words of Todd Babiak, our forsaken acropolis “is one of the icons of a lost Edmonton, a phantom Edmonton, a victim of the boom-and-bust psychology that has defined the city since its earliest days.”

No time on the first clock -- 20 to 5 on the second with new-found hands.

Neat.
Love the old library and elegant turnaround.
Also the buildings on that massive parking lot on 102-103 north of 100ave.

I'm curious to know what are those buildings south of the Chateau Lacombe where the Park Plaza and Renaissance Place condos are currently located?

Is that the old hotel there right where the road splits?

4 houses and a walk-up apartment building.

Proof that sometimes even small changes make a difference. Looking at the NE corner here and just by not seeing it as a parking lot, plus the sidewalks being in better shape and all... It's a shame google didn't drive through one of the busier days with all of the food trucks there.
Also impressive how much the new Roxy building stands out and makes the area feel a lot better!
