...then it must be false.

I think we are on the same page, Ian.

The "Government Park" at the base of the hill atop which sits the Korean Pavilion would be an excellent relocation if the whole could be developed into a formal Korean Garden -- adding to the River Valley's themed parks.

David, because it was never planned for in the first place, the cost of putting a roof over Commonwealth Stadium would actually far exceed the cost of building a new stadium. There is plenty of room downtown for a new stadium and if it were sunken into the ground (as many new stadia are today)...

Definitely not ICE District Phase II!

Tell you what David you dream about your plain vanilla outcomes and I will dream about what might be possible, in the extreme or not. You focus on what can't be done and I will focus on what can happen. I suppose you were one of the ones who felt that Rogers Place was "pie in the sky" when...

Unless the seating section adjacent is portable so that it can accommodate both scenarios -- track and non-track events. And by portable I don't mean cheap aluminum bench seating (deluxe would be the word). You should really look at the retrofitted Madrid stadium -- I posted it here some...

The technology for clear-span retractable roofs has progressed such that they are now very light and translucent -- they are no longer outrageously expensive and, dare I say, it would be a huge disservice to a City like Edmonton to not have the ability to cover a sports field (revenue potential...

I have been hinting at that for over a year now.

You must be reading different history books than those that are in my collection.

I would still like to hear the rationale behind canceling the design competition. Talking about community outreach in my mind is simply "ass covering" on the part of City Administration (and specifically Planning input) for a concept that is wholly unimaginative.

A small nit -- "diner" is a quick service establishment with a certain aura about it; "dinner" is an evening meal.

First, it is Archited not Architech (you are trying to make me sound like some kind of engineer or worse... an urban planner🤢). Give me the guy's contact info and I will have him re-schooled and if that doesn't work I will plop a colony of army ants next to his abode and if that doesn't work I...

It's why cyclists put cardboard pinned to their spokes and why hog-meisters like to feel the tingle in their balls when revving their two-piston engines -- it is a badge of man-hood akin to being the loudest drunk in a bar.

Well that was the basis of a huge mistake. Kind of akin to asking T-ballers who to pick for starting pitcher in a World Series final.

I would think bigger than that and include the land south of 97th Avenue and north and west of River Road in a permanent World Indigenous Peoples' Exposition that begins with Alberta and Western Canadian tribes and expands rapidly to include Indigenous Peoples across the globe. I believe that...

Dr. Trimbee appears to have an agile mind and that is why the board and the general public and the student population all like her. She is widely open to new ideas so I wouldn't put any fences around her ambitions for MacU going forward. I could see her being open to a developer wanting to...

Keep stirring the mix, I say... it is where good ideas are born. Opportunity hinges on outside thinking and some of the best surprises spring from there (otherwise we would all be bookkeepers and data miners).

One never knows what actually lands in a fishing expedition.

I bet the B.O. was palpable @Glenco -- I have had a similar experience in L.A.
