Nice to see the NE getting a new sports complex... https://livewirecalgary.com/2025/12/03/calgary-budget-northeast-athletic-complex/

I've heard through the rumour mill it should be out before Christmas. Given this government's history, expect them to drop it when they need a channel change in the media.

Does the old The Pint building on the corner have a tenant in it these days? That seems to be the most cursed one of them all

Would be great to see the statues moved. It's sad to hear there are zero plans for the land at the moment. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/former-calgary-board-of-education-building-9.6996394

Would love to see a proposal for the old La Chaumiere restaurant site that spills out onto the park and complements the Sovereign building.

Might be a dumb question, but would they typically finish exterior envelope of a building like this and then dig out the pool areas or would the pool areas already be dug out and poured before the exterior envelope is started? Just kinda wondering if the cold weather and frozen ground has any...

That's the thing. If the repealers were acting in good faith, I would argue that there are tweaks that can be made to the RCG zoning that can easily make this a win-win. This is the list of gripes that was included in the repeal Notice of Motion. You're telling me that the 15 people on...

It looks pretty clear to me that some form of rezoning had to be part of the bargain in order to access these funds. Perhaps the funding wasn't dependent on rezoning the entire city to RCG but 4 units as-of-right is definitely way more than the R1 zoning Calgary used to have. If Council is...

Huh. Apparently actions have consequences.... https://globalnews.ca/news/11542743/calgary-federal-housing-funds-paused-rezoning-status/

Any idea how many rooms the hotel will be?

Seems like the website may need a bit more work... 😄

Ooops. Was thinking west, typed east. Used to hit up the BPs in that spot before it became a Dennys as it was one of the only places in the Beltline where they would show sports with the sound on. Both east and west ends could actually use the boost in population and vibrancy. 17th is strong...

The faded yellow and orange remind me of the old lawnchairs from the 70s my parents had while I was growing up. Average form factor, terrible appearance. I agree that a 2 story podium would work better in this location. Maybe even no podium setback since it's on the north side of the street...
