+++1 Reece for a planning and consultation role, we got deep pockets and he is the most passionate advocate for rail infrastructure I know of.

If Reece is excited for Alberta rail I am too. Even if I don't trust the current government at all, a plan for the future we can work towards is a good thing. I also like his well thought out routing and speed considerations.

Ah didn't go back far enough, thanks! That is a nice compliment and the scale is nice for the area. Good stuff !

was i hallucinating or is there a hole in the ground and a few less buildings south of the Mercury block across 102? Presumably mercury block 2 is a go but is it more of the same? any renders or insight?

I didn't realize how much more road and lots they have built out, glad to see it's taking shape. Still beyond puzzling there is not walkway to the station from what I could tell, you would think that would be a key selling point now. Hope we get some more developers jumping in to put in some units.

Incredibly frustrating to watch. I don't think I can even say "at least the cities aren't so bad" anymore when talking politics. The amount of massive policy changes they have made in such a short time is nuts. I don't know how anyone could smoothly and effectively delivery on any single one of...

In recent walks around westmount, inglewood, grovenor and glenora areas there are a staggering amount of freshly cleared lots. I know not all will be densification but even if it's new giant SFW houses it still drives demand in the areas. I think with zoning changes the gentle density of lots of...

What a nice video to start the week off with. Super glad the winter cycling congress brought folks to the city even more that it's left an impression. That was a way more positive video than I expected and it's always nice to get outside perspective. Yeah we have loads of challenges but let's...

How the hell are we a supposed 'have province' not worthy of the best healthcare facilities in Canada? Who gives a shit if it's $5B we have a rapidly aging and growing population we need this investment in our major centers now. I guess they should have built it years ago when it was cheaper but...

Glad to see the renaming of Oliver to Wîhkwêntôwin is approved. A lovely name for the area and I am sure will be second nature in no time.

https://globalnews.ca/news/10307435/justin-trudeau-housing-announcement-edmonton/ Some good news $175M seems on par with other cities. Could always wish we got more, but I am hopeful the province gets off its grience bullshit to work together on additional funding agreements.

i really like the 105 alignment idea, lands into a relatively empty part of the valley, 105 is not nearly as busy to construct along, some empty space along the roadway as you get into downtown just south of Jasper could be a great station build out area with not to bad of a gap to the existing...

I am getting really disappointed with the allocation of the Housing accelerator fund. Where the heck is our money or announcement? looking at the list of approved cities so far we have been ahead of in reforms, transit, biking expansions, etc... we have had a gigantic increase in population and...

I was just looking for a place to post that. I love Paige's videos and it's a timely look at what we are doing with immigration anyway as the sentiment has really shifted as of late. Surprisingly optimistic considering it is highlighting that we can't just patch up our problems anymore we need...

I am on a rollercoaster of emotions, i saw that this site was cleared 😯 and looked up the development application on the city's page, saw the towers that were proposed :) , then checked out this forum to learn more and was even more excited to see an entire redevelopment of the whole block of...
