I was quite bored so went for a couple of drives yesterday and today.

Looking North from Old Banff Coach road. A ton of earth moved.

And! We have a cooler skyline! I'm curious as to your comment though, is Houston or Texas Medical Center used as benchmark when comparing medical campuses in terms of size?

I work down 881, FIFO. Every shuttle coming to camp is now dropping off everyone at the medic side of the camp where they fill out a questionnaire in regards to recent travel and possibility of being sick. They then get their body temp. measured and if all good can proceed to check in.

It would be cool if for one day a year, when the CP Christmas Train rolled through, Telus Sky was facing East/West. Imagine having a giant LED Christmas tree in the background of this shot:)

Mine might not be as realistic but here it goes in no specific order. 1)Brentwood Commons, with original height gets started. 2)Plaza 54 gets started. 3)Green Line all the way from North to South being confirmed and shovels in the ground. 4)5th & McLeod by Great Gulf gets started. 5) Some high...

A quick google search and it looks like the Sprint Center was $276 Usd to build so well within our budget. It's a shame that the Saddledome has to be torn down, between losing that and the ski jumps at COP I feel that the city is losing some really iconic infrastructure.

https://calgaryherald.com/news/local-news/the-right-thing-deal-for-new-arena-is-official-as-city-signs-agreement-with-flames-and-stampede I hope the new arena doesn't look like the one in the rendering.

My Wings lost but always enjoy the view from the Saddledome.

Just some cell phone pics from Nose Hill today.

He said the 26 story tower will be rentals and they will sell the condos in the 42 story tower.

So my friend that is working on the podium said that the crane base is up and will be fully erected by Monday. They are starting with 27 story it is a 100% go. Once 27 story tall tower is at 17 floors they will start erecting crane for 42 story tower. Keep in mind this is the same friend that...

All good man, I appreciate everyone's opinion here. Over the years of lurking and reading posts I've learned a lot and even molded my own opinions based on a lot of the comments I've read from forumers here. In my opinion if 707 was a super tall it'd be one of the most gorgeous buildings on the...

It is an awesome building but in saying that, the only thing I like about it more than say Telus Sky, The Bow, 707 or even MacKimmie is it's height.
