Only marginally related to this thread but I've heard rumbling that the big grain elevator terminal in the distant background of this pic is coming up for demo soon.

It'll feel pretty different driving down the YHT and not seeing that landmark.

Where will all the ducks feed in the winter. But shit, That building has been part history as I grew up. It was always on the horizon from my home. Then when I was older and bike commuting in from St Al I would ride by it every day.

Its interesting that I still see trucks hauling to it everyday.

That should be from Jenn Hiel way at least. But would be better from the Stoney Plain interchange.
