    Valley Line LRT | TransEd/Marigold | City of Edmonton

    There's no way this leg opens in 2021, right? Is there a chance it opens south of the river this year and north of the river next year?

    Alberta Politics

    Of course there are high salaries when you're a leading institution in Canada employing phDs as employees. Do you honestly expect to hire these people for less than $100k/year? Same goes for president and vice-presidents. The is a huge institution, and you are not going to find qualified...

    Edmonton | Greenstone Park | ?m | 4s | Abbey Lane Homes | Dub Architects

    It looks like this may be completed and currently being rented out. Can anybody nearby confirm?

    Edmonton | Emerald Tower | 153.61m | 45s | Regency Developments | DER + Associates

    To be fair, Regency is close to completion on 121 West, while near topped out on their Holyrood Redevelopment. Not defending any of their sites, but you can't argue that they are not one of the most active developers in Edmonton.

    Federal Politics

    I really hope this comes to fruition. One of the major roadblocks to purchasing a home in the NW was lack of transit. I don't endorse one political party over another, so hopefully the Liberal and NDP will match this commitment.

    Edmonton | Brickyard Off 4th | 20m | 6s | Cove Properties

    Seen a sign saying renters will be moving in, in September. Driving past this building exceeds my initial opinion that this place has a fantastic exterior. A very welcome addition to a bit of a dated neighborhood.

    Miscellaneous

    Huge parcel of land is under construction at Campbell Rd/Boudreau Rd in St. Albert next to Century Casino. There's a chance it might just be utility work, but I recall hearing about a hotel going up here in past conversations. Tons of equipment working on site for past 2 weeks.

    Arlington Site | ?m | 33s | Kota Contracting | Der+Associates

    So could a person call 311 and request bylaw to check it out in instances like this?

    Edmonton | The Flats - Rossdale | 35.05m | 10s | Parkwood | Dub Architects

    So no underground parking on these?

    Edmonton | CNIB Redevelopment | 106m | 32s | ONE Properties | Wallman Architects

    By my rough count, looks like they are on floor 27 or 28. So about 6 floors left to go.

    Pay Parking in Public Parks

    I tend to agree with this policy. A reasonable fee for parking still makes outings to park and these establishments great value. Whether the revenue goes towards park maintenance or general revenue is fine by me. I tend to value gov't revenue coming more out of user fees, than of taxes...

    Edmonton | Rogers Place | ?m | ?s | Katz Group | HOK

    Not that I'm much of an activist, but rodeo and bull riding seems like a pretty clear cut example of cruelty to animals to me. I don't want to criticize or fault people for watching, because it does seem entertaining, but I have the personal opinion that it's a tragedy that this "sport' still...

    Edmonton | The View | 76m | 23s | Westrich Pacific | Chris Dikeakos

    If my counting skills are good, looks like they are working on the 23rd floor now.

    For completed projects, or new projects under construction, I just click on report error under project description and Edward updates them.

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

    The picture really reminds me of SimCity. Area is zoned, roads built, and buildings starting to pop up.

    Edmonton | Holyrood Court 5 | ?m | 4s | PK Developments | EFG Architects

    I love the idea of always doing better, and having innovative design on a budget. I’m not trying to say this is a great job by the developer. I just look at the surrounding buildings, and feel this building is still an improvement for the area, hence my lack of outrage.

    East Junction | 86m | 25s | Regency Developments | DER + Associates

    Regency pulled the same thing with 121 West. Was supposed to be built as an 8 story and 6 story. During construction, they changed it and is 10 & 9 stories now. I’m okay with more height, but feel like they now might be trying to push things through after consultations and everything have completed.
