Yes, from the North End the first validator is almost at the middle.

Used the new validators today, such an improvement. However, the validators at Stadium Station are STILL only in the middle of the platform. So if you are running to catch a train you either run to the middle of the platform and hope it doesn't leave or get on the train without paying. What...

I'm not so sure it will have that much of an effect on the surrounding buildings. The Mercury units are TINY in comparison to the older apartments around it. Some people want the new build and amenities but many others will choose more sqft, I know I would choose the older building with more...

They seem to be expanding super rapidly. And weirdly for a large investment landlord the people I know who have moved into their buildings or had their buildings acquired have found them ok landlords. Atleast they don't seem to be as actively crappy as most of the other big landlords. I hope...

It's not being a cynic if its accurate. 100% that's the case.

I don't get why our governments won't let private groups TRY things (RAM, Gondola, Coliseum). If people want to invest, let them, just make sure the taxpayer is protected. Give the group the land with the stipulation that if the project isn't complete by x date then it reverts back to the...

https://edmontonjournal.com/news/local-news/edmontons-bissell-centre-closed-morning-fire This sucks. There are currently no drop in day services available in the City Centre, right during the first cold snap of the year.

The fact you think most indigenous folks grew up on a reservation shows you are dealing in stereotypes with no experience of the people you are talking about. Only about a 1/3rd of indigenous folks live on reserve. Most either come from bands who never got reserves or had them disbanded by the...

Here's hoping.

Nuestra on 112th is officially open! The space inside is lovely, the owners and staff are great, and it was busy inside today (photo from their soft open on Saturday). The Chai Latte is delicious as are the baked goods. It's such a pleasant and bright place, really looking forward to what they...

Fantastic! There is huge need in this area for seniors housing. Alot of the SFH are filled with seniors that don't want to leave Beverly but are unable to find suitable housing.

Pointing out that the problem is more persistent is not whataboutism. The NDP funded the South Hospital when they knew they wouldn't be responsible for it: just like indexing Social Benefits, Affordable Housing Investments, etc. The UCP is the worst and the NDP are definitely better for the city...

I would generally agree. However, I think having our arts district next to city hall is actually pretty smart. City hall is a good daytime generator but a dead space in the evenings, so compliments the arts amenities pretty well. Would be a great complete urban core if the retail/restaurant...

Thanks, last I saw there were a few different plans in contention. Thanks for the update, I must have missed it.

As much as I hate the UCP, this isn't exclusively a them problem. The NDP and the PCs also short changed Edmonton. For example, Notley declined to fund the planned overhaul of the Royal Alex that Prentice had planned and instead funded the Calgary Cancer Centre. This is an ongoing and persistent...

Do they have a finalized design on that?

Would lead to some very confused nurses. 🤣

Those concept renders are way more inviting than what was delivered, it was clearly value engineered. The "More Green Space, Less Concrete" as the reason to pick the river concept is hilarious in hindsight.

"The province's statement says the move comes "after years of AIMCo consistently failing to meet its mandated benchmark returns." The government also pointed to "significant" increases in operating costs, management fees and staffing without corresponding return on investment." And all of...

Wow, that is really bland. Somehow I hate it more than the renders. Looks like a cheap rental company designed the plaza... And with how bland the plaza is above it by the Federal Building is, its extra upsetting.
