    West Edmonton Mall

    Also a VR attraction.

    Downtown

    A lot of interim development sites are being used as temporary dog parks and community gardens in Vancouver as well. Although with courts I would like to see them as a permanent, well done installation for vibrancy purposes. No half ass attempts, make it beautiful like the ones in calgary.

    Edmonton summer festivals

    In my opinion, our three best festivals all come in August right after one another. Heritage days, folk fest and then fringe. I think all of them are great and are worthy of increased development and promotion. I would like to see their prioritization over things like k days and taste of...

    Edmonton summer festivals

    This is interesting. Edmonton fights at k days are nothing new but the frenzy around circulating the videos seems at an all time high. To the point where outlets like CTV news and EJ pick it up and put it on the front page. However, CTV in Calgary paints a different picture of how security is...

    Edmonton | Brewery District | ?m | ?s | DIALOG

    ^great news! Despite brewery district being a more articulated collection of car centric CRUs, the western edge historical brewery buildings are beautiful and do help add to the urban experience. That patio at brewery building has been begging for a quality tenant and I'm sure the Rosso group...

    Edmonton | 105 Avenue (Columbia Avenue) Streetscape | ?m | ?s | City of Edmonton

    Rode my bike on a portion of the new lanes today. It seems like we did not learn much from the Victoria promenade fiasco and others. The bike lanes are too narrow and there is interference with car parking on the Southside. We lost one of my favorite bike paths in the city that was...

    Edmonton | Blatchford Development | ?m | ?s | City of Edmonton

    It would also be cool to see commercial/mixed use next to the control tower. Giving people from outside blatçhford a reason to enjoy and activate the control tower, making it more if a landmark.

    Edmonton Branding and Tourism strategy

    What's also ironic is that the campaign is aimed at educating and instilling civic pride in edmontontonians yet their own messaging seems unsure of itself. The marketing and branding should be abundantly clear so that you do not have to ask the akward question of why Edmonton. I'm not a...

    Edmonton Branding and Tourism strategy

    https://www.cbc.ca/player/play/2247002179662 Link to the video. The campaign does not instill confidence or excitement in my opinion. "Why Edmonton?" could easily be read in a negative or confused tone. The phrase is not typically used as an enticing campaign title. Its more often used as a...

    Cycling and Active Transportation in Edmonton

    I think the saskatchewan drive one should be made permanent as well.

    Cycling and Active Transportation in Edmonton

    Would closing down river valley road to be one way or just removing it completely apart from royal Glendora access ever be considered? I know it's useful for vehicle commuters, but could alternative routes routes be explored? When I think of the potential Touch the Water project, I feel there is...

    Edmonton | Winspear Centre Completion Project | 29.87m | 4s | Winspear Centre | Andrew Bromberg

    Agree it would likely be supplemental to buildings current heating systems. That is how CHP retrofits I've seen have been implemented. One issue that could arise is that buildings with steam distribution are less likely to benefit with a hot water district energy system - due to required...

    Queen Mary mixed use sign says 70% leased with one retail space left on the southeast corner. No businesses open when I walked by. The church down the street from the mixed use.

    Building at corner of 110 Street and 105 Ave (behind macewan) looks to be getting a refresh that better delineates CRUs at main level.
