That would be a great spot for a highrise residential tower. Heck, I would add another 10 floors on top of what they are showing, and make it really stand out.

Yes and no. No, in that it’s mostly the same soil, but yes for the reasons you mention in that the less flat area and more precip has kept the soil from eroding at the same rate over the past several thousand years. At least this is the way my high school geography teacher had explained it. How...

It’s very sad to see that CastleRidge, Falconridge and Martindale don’t look any different than they did when I lived there in the late 80s and 90s. We had a couple of trees in our backyard and my parents watered them regularly and they become large and mature in 20 years but we were the only...

My thoughts too, and I said the same thing in the homeless people thread. All those people who are advocating for the drop in Centre to remain downtown or in EV, I wonder how many of them would be willing to live across from the drop in Centre or move their families there? The problem is, none...

Yes, we really don't want Crowchild having access to 26th, it would ruin it. I think access to 33rd should also be closed off.

It has 100% kneecapped EV's development. When EV was first starting out I considered buying there but through reasons un-related to the DIC, I didn't. As time has gone on and I've seen what's become of EV, I'm glad I didn't and I can't imagine anyone wanting to buy there right now. A potential...

We'll need to convert more offices into residential. Time to get creative and go after one of the bigger buildings.

I don't know if the feds can take all of the blame, or even any of the blame. The issue is the the massive amount of investment needed, and how long it'll take for the ROI. I used to think oil would be going strong even, 25 years from now, but now I'm not so sure. There is more impetus now than...

The end result was more Europe flights from YYC

I'm down with whatever it takes to solve the drug issue. At the end of the day, that's the biggest issue and if there was a way to get people off their addictions it would be a game changer.

That's because the last census period was from 2016-2021, and inter-provincial migration was on the positive side for all 5 of those years, but has trended sharply downward in the past two years. Ontario has been growing overall these past two years, and probably will until the next census in...

So what exactly is the solution? We don't oppress them, we just let them do what they're doing, and the poverty cycle will be broken? How has that been working so far? Let's not oppress people like Jeffry Dahmer either, after all it's not their fault they have mental issues. My wife's father was...

I wonder if this trend of going to centralization/hubs is going to continue pI wonder if this trend of going to centralization slab/hubs is going to continue permanently or if it will continue for a while, then the trend will reverse? I’m sure airlines love using the hub and spoke system, but at...

Word was that it was sold out in September, and they probably finished up on the permit so they could get going. It’s amazing that a high-rise building console out without even having a development permit submitted lol

Popped on the VR goggles and checked it out. The inner courtyard is nice, and much bigger than I expected it to look.

This sign now shows as ‘sold’. Fingers crossed. We see plans for development soon.

Count me in favour of more frequent service, but less coverage. We’re already seeing a trend of development near LRT stations or busy corridors geared towards people without cars. Over time it will balance out. Most of the people who use transit will end up gravitating near areas that have good...

Is there a full list of all completed or proposed conversions?
