Just look at how hard is is to rejuvenate the Downtown Eastside in Vancouver - an area with much higher real estate prices and they still can't breathe life into large parts of the community.
Interesting analogy - another place where height is limited by a central structure. Or as in Ottawa, where the height capped at the Peace Tower's elevation
These three shots show me the long-lasting the effect of the municipal airport overlay in restricting building height. Slowly, that effect is disappearing.
I could be wrong here, but this strikes me as the mall that has done the most to welcome its connection to mass transit. Other malls (WEM, Kingsway, Southgate, Mill Woods) seem to tolerate transit at their doorstep rather than embrace it.
The way McDavid fell (twice) and Foegele fell, I'm ready to blame the ice.
There's no shame in that loss last night. I think the players should be proud, so should management, so should the fans.
I don't understand why the Yellowed is going under the tracks (as it currently does), before going over the new interchange for 121 St. Doesn't raising a freeway just lead to more noise for everyone else in Blatchford? Why not have it run lower, similar to the Whitemud west of Gateway Blvd?
