    Urban Development and Proposals Discussion

    All they need is a little path beside centre st, 8th st, or even highway 2. There are partial paths along all of these routes, but none connect all the way. Sorry, just got back from Germany where the entire country is connected with separated bike paths and this time of your you see many...

    Airdrie needs a better bike path connection to Calgary. In fact, [not kidding] we should make a well-labelled bike route from Calgary to Edmonton.

    I wonder why they cut back on transparent panels so much. Is it really that big a difference in cost? Why not go exactly with the cladding in the render? Obviously the same materials are available. I'll reserve final judgement until I see the bow of the ship. That notch in her hull around the...

    Recladding is unnecessary in my opinion. Rather, if they want to make the building and area more attractive, renovate the first 2-3 stories to me brighter, more welcoming, more open, more accessible to the +15, possibly add a curve or oblique angle. There's already plenty of activity in most...

    That's what I suspected. Is that to prevent ice on the ramp?

    Calgary | Calgary Cancer Centre | 75m | 14s | Province of Alberta | Stantec

    I want to look at a building that simultaneously reminds me how shitty cancer is and how united our species is in the battle against it. Seriously though, I'm not sure what I think about it. It's pretty monstrous aesthetically, but the location is good and after all it's an institution. There...

    I like the way they folded the rebar on the ramp - so cool! Is that just standard rebar or is something special going on for the ramp?

    I thought about writing some thing more, but "Me likey" will suffice. :)

    That's actually a great location (so long as you're not on the cpr side)

    I'm of the mind that Crowchild could be improved a lot with only a few small fixes. The most costly part of the solution has little to do with Crowchild, and everything to do with 10th Ave SW. Here's what I would do: Crowchild @... Kensington Rd NW: No overpass, no light. Right-on-right-off...

    I was waiting for someone else to make the first post on this. Thanks.

    Interesting! So, if your unit is on the ground on the front, it's on the 2nd floor at the back; and if you're on the ground on the back, you are the 2nd floor at the front. Hmm. Same for 3rd and 4th floors. Meanwhile, the outside is a 70's clad moth-on-tree-bark cladding reimagined with modern...
