Sigh. Just copy Montreal's Bixi.

I think more residents are needed to support any potential businesses.

As the population of Canada intentionally increases, so does the need for access to the National Park System. This has not been expanded in equivalence to the population. There is no need to expand city limits, however commercialization of national parks is reasonable considering the parks...

After being in Banff, I disagree. Hyper commercialized in a national park. The arguments against this don't hold any water. Not turning Jasper into a recreational hub, like Banff is anti Canadian.

Maybe the city should also do that downtown.

The north end is perfect for field offices and lunch rooms. I'd expect them to utilize the paved area for that. Stage 2 they'll probably rent the adjacent ugly parking lot.

These are same people forcing private enterprise to tax bags.

They build fences.

The park and ride at Lewis Farms is going to be massive. The west portion probably should have been apartments.

@archited a few more decades and I'll have caught up to you!

1,000 more people with eyes on the street, supporting the local grocery stores, visiting the park, checking out the galleries, riding the train, enjoying restaurants, walking to/from places instead of driving. The architecture is crap, but the positive effects from this project are not trivial...

Oh well. Banff and Canmore it is.

Something should be done to attract outside investment or Jasper will be a shell of it's former self for decades. It could be Edmonton's Canmore.

1,000 more people living downtown.

Those are the conceptual renderings. Massing will probably be quite similar.
