As mentioned earlier in the thread, the interior of the Ryerson SLC by Snøhetta is absolutely phenomenal. Judging by the renders of the library interior and actually getting tour of what was done in Toronto, I think that it's going to be a showstopper.

Awesome. I'm super excited to follow this one.

Really hoping they'll finish this soon enough to get that seacan off of the sidewalk. Looking really good though.

No other information than "lighting feature"? I'm looking forward to seeing what they'll do, but the suspense is killing me!

Extending 17th? Expanding RiverWalk / cycle tracks? TOD around the Green Line? Sign me up!

Fantastic photo, Cyric. Really excited to see this one go up. Can't wait to be back from school instead of living vicariously through these forum posts. :p

Anyone hear about this before today? http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/calgary-library-construction-delay-1.3940638

Photo I took over Christmas. Didn't bring my widest lens :(

Looks great. Awesome location, too.

by neoncratic, on Flickr Not quite sure how to make an album, but here are a few from March this year. It's an awesome building.

I toured the Ryerson campus earlier this year and have to say the SLC is a total show stopper. I can dig up some of my photos if anyone's interested, don't know if I have any of the interior though. If the library will be anything like the SLC it will be incredible, imo.

Well damn. I didn't know about these LEDs. That's gonna look unbelievably cool.

Not sure if I am a fan of the top right now. I'm sure it will grow on me. Curious what it will look like completely lit.

Just joined myself last week. Grew up in Strathmore but have spent a lot of time in Calgary over the years! Right now, I'm in Saskatoon for 2/3 of the year as an Urban Planning student at the U of S. I'm well into my second year now and loving it. The ultimate goal is to graduate and come back...

Only 1500 stalls? If that's true sounds like they're really gonna be pushing for transit use to and from the stadium. Still, that doesn't seem like enough to me.

New member here, thought I'd drop in. :) Permanence of rails shows a commitment to transit? More TOD? Not sure, a bus line would be considerably cheaper than light rail. I would love to see a streetcar in Calgary though!
