    Calgary Flames Official Thread

    Last night wasn't actually a must win in a technical sense, but it sure stung. If they can't find two against the Oilers we can probably call it a season though.

    General Construction Updates

    I'm not sure that's something Calgarians should wish for. There has to be a tremendous amount of economic activity tied to the Alyth yard.

    General Construction Updates

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but is the Aylth yard not CPR's busiest yard in Western Canada, if not the country? @hollahollaholla posted this link a few months ago in the Fantasy Transit Maps thread: https://rac.jmaponline.net/canadianrailatlas/ Re-routing that looks like one hell of an...

    Calgary & Alberta Economy

    The February LFS stats are out. There's an interesting situation this month. For the second consecutive month, Calgary's Unemployment Rate has climbed. We went from a 2 year low at 7.5% back in December, back to 7.9% in February. This isn't great to be sure, but in a relative sense it isn't...

    General Construction Updates

    It's interesting that the problem is garnering international attention from a school in the Netherlands. But even if we were able to reroute the portion of the CPR mainline that cuts through downtown, I don't know if I'd want to lose the tracks. That would be the lynch-pin of a future commuter...

    Calgary Flames Official Thread

    I've heard we need like 9 or 10 out of our last 15. They're really gonna have to find another gear if they want to make that happen. Beating Buffalo should be good for morale, but they have a lot of tough teams coming up in that stretch that they're going to have to figure out how to beat...

    The image won't load for me. Is it of that site?

    General Construction Updates

    Your guess is as good as mine for what's coming next, but I can't see new construction being bad for the area.

    Calgary | Cambridge Manor | 12.5m | 4s

    Average bordering on decent. But, what makes it Maple?

    Calgary | Brentwood Commons | 85m | 24s | Casola Koppe

    This was always the best looking of the co-op proposals by a country mile. My biggest complaint with it isn't the parking. It still has to be a functional grocery store for the community and this one doesn't come off as just a sea of parking stalls like some of the others. It is as...

    Calgary | Riverview West 4th Avenue | 78.5m | 24s | Trico Homes | S2

    That's what makes it a cliffe rather than a cliff I suppose.

    Calgary's Potential 2026 Winter Olympic Bid

    Great shares! Almost 55 thousand spectators at the Stampede Granstand, who'd have thought it. I wonder if the plan includes and refurbishment of the the current seating on top of the porposed temporary and permanent additions. Those McMahon proposals are interesting too, but man would the...

    Calgary Music & Concerts

    I didn't take any pictures of video myself from the Sabaton concert back on Feb. 17th, so I've been waiting for some other videos to be posted before I commented on it. Here's Sabaton's official video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vU8wVhm2jF4 Be warned it's a metal show, so there's a bit of...

    Calgary | Crosstown | 88m | 30s | Anthem

    It's decent for now, and it'll become forgettable in the future, but I don't think it'll every be viewed as terrible for the area so long as they're well built. This is another case of empty lots being filled in so it's hard to judge it to harshly when that's what you're comparing it against...

    Urban Development and Proposals Discussion

    Does any one know what the office vacancy rate stands at right now? The last numbers I saw were the CBRE ones for the end of Q3.
