My hope here is that we replicate the successes of Giovanni Caboto Park in Little Italy here - big leafy spaces, playgrounds, places to relax or gather, minimal concrete or designs that are better from overhead angles. Simple, classic, attractive.

My move from skeptic to supporter happened the moment that I saw the capacity and price of a gondola vs an lrt extension. The gondola represents a huge piece of the puzzle, particularly when you consider that Sherwood Park is likely looking at very rapid connections between its...
I question the cost/benefit of building an extension to Castle Downs and St. Albert, but I can see why people want "LRT to everywhere".
There's a lot of low hanging fruit like better connections along Whyte (and Alberta Ave) once it's bookended by stations on either end.
