    Calgary | Place 800 | 68m | 17s | Peoplefirst

    I need to see more material installed, when I went by this afternoon, IMO it looked decent.

    They’re starting to peel off the wrapping on the white panels, I think this building is going to look good.

    Inglewood could probably support an urban format grocer similar to the Save On in the Beltline. Not only has the neighborhood population been increasing, but there is a fair bit of drive by traffic heading from DT to Blackfoot/Deerfoot.

    It’s a shame they chose red and green, green or red alone with another color like gray or white would’ve been better. Or red with green, but a grayish green of different texture.

    Skijordue 2026

    Calgary’s winter climate weather is a bit of an issue, but snowmaking machines could solve the issue, I don’t think they would need a lot of snow for this event.

    Calgary | Sovereign | 40.54m | 14s | Avi Urban | GEC

    The building is bulkier than I was expecting, but for some reason I like it.

    Calgary | Scotia Place | 36.85m | 11s | CSEC | HOK

    Exactly. The saddle shaped roof with those fluffy noise absorbing pads, made the building seem quieter than it really is. The noise level on the new building will feel more like a typical NHL arena.

    Calgary | Trail 31 | 13m | 3s | Eagle Crest | FAAS Architecture

    The material maybe wasn’t the best choices, but the overall build isn’t bad. Kind of a mini village thing happening.

    Calgary's Downtown Discussion Thread

    That's so true. Before 2015 when downtown Calgary was low office vacancy and 130,000 office workers downtown, it was a place that was midtown Manhattan during the day and a ghost town after 6:00pm. Now, I'm seeing more of a balance. The downtown isn't as busy during work hours, but is busier...

    Calgary | The Galloway | 37m | 10s | Ayrshire | EFG Architects

    Between Galloway, Beltline Block, the conversion of the Transalta building and 1105 Centre St S, there is going to be a huge increase in population in that area.

    Calgary | Yellowstone | 67.36m | 20s | Amble Ventures | NORR

    Reminds me of a nicer version of Nest.

    It’s also nice that it’s a mid rise, it’ll give the area a more diverse feel.

    General Construction Updates

    I was driving down Crowchild near 26th Ave and there’s construction happening where the Viscount Bennett school used to be. If I recall it was a Minto proposal with some towers?

    Calgary | Sovereign | 40.54m | 14s | Avi Urban | GEC

    It’s turning out better than the renderings.

    Calgary | Multifamily Bridgeland | 16m | 5s | Groupe Denux | ACE

    From the rendering, it looks like the fifth floor isn’t a full floor. I’m guessing maybe a second level with a terrace for the fourth floor units?

    Calgary | Bridgeland Mixed Use | 22m | 6s | Westrich Pacific | S2

    Getting lots of top down action in that Miata!

    I’m heading out of town for a month, it’s going to be nice checking out the progress of these sites when I get back.

    Calgary | Plaza | 109m | 33s | Cantiro | GEC

    It’ll be nice to see another lot disappear.

    Calgary | Stampede Station | 273.5m | 67s | Truman | NORR

    Wow, I step away for a day and all hell breaks loose! Build this!
