I think we just put all the buildings in Sunnyside up on stilts. Cheaper than the new berm? :p

The city has definitely been doing some work on the land at the Midfield site, I assume bringing it up to proper grading and such.

While not construction related a bunch of folks from the Calgary Metal Detecting club were on site yesterday doing their thing. Found a bunch of old coins (penny from 1919 for example), glass bottles, license plates, all sorts of really neat 100 year old history from Calgary.

The Truman Homes site on Memorial in Sunnyside appears to have finally started excavation. A search of their website shows that it will be called Archer and be made up of 1-2 bedroom condos. https://trumanhomes.com/find-your-home/coming-soon/ Edit: Whoops, I see this was already all posted...

If memory serves the rehabilitation and upgrades to the west runway were planned to have happened right after the new parallel opened up, but I think with finances and the new terminal and such they got shelved.

It's funny because it is so true.

As long as the washrooms are built tough, sinks that withstand being stood in and such.

Interesting, since the original plan was to put the York back on top with some offices above it. At some point during the process did the supports necessary to accomplish even that get scrapped?

I think Damery is one to watch for, she could be the Nenshi of this election.

^^^^ That's a great node of density building up.

Vendome has also had a setup like this for a few years.

Former broadcaster Gary Bobrovitz is announcing his run for Ward 8 this morning.

I thought Battistella had it for a while and sold it off?

Not a good look Shirley... 😬😬

Nice to see they did that. I always thought they could do the Red-White-Red for Canada Day, would be cool.

Balcony LED light installation is underway, and obviously set at the highest brightness right now. I'd guess they will be lowered:

Good to see that Hillhurst project get the go ahead from council. 8th avenue there is a ghost town and a traffic increase would be hardly noticed.

That Remington lot that is being paved into a parking lot used to house all the freight trailers that would come in for Stampede.

Crane came down at Dominion in Bridgeland.
