The SkyriseEdmonton community is composed of a diverse and knowledgeable group of architects, engineers, photographers, and lovers of everything urban who all share a passion for the development of the city. It's an undeniably exciting time to be in Edmonton right now. The city is experiencing a tremendous amount of growth that is changing the way people live, work, play, and move. And the Battle of Alberta has transcended the world of sports and politics — it's difficult not to compare the latest architectural and urban design trends shaping each city. A friendly rivalry seems to be developing between SkyriseCalgary and SkyriseEdmonton, with users comparing their respective city's skylines and recent developments.
