    LRT Expansion Planning

    A "walk-through" is simply a train where every carriage is connected into one long space instead of being separated into "cars". There is usually seating in these trains and they can be more accessible, since people can find seating across the entire train as opposed to just the carriage they're...

    So the tower has a snatched waist from what I'm hearing? They should rename this project to Slay Towers ✨💅 For real though, this building almost pushes the skyline further to the west and, once it's joined by other projects like The Shift, downtown will feel much bigger for sure and that's great!

    LRT Expansion Planning

    Hey Reece, nice to see you on the Edmonton forum again 😁 I honestly didn't know that walk-through LRT trains were a thing, but that's actually so cool and I wish we could get those here for our system!

    Y'know what Ted? No one asked. That kind of negativity isn't needed or welcome, and it contributes to a negative atmosphere on this website. Give some constructive criticism or don't say anything at all.

    Woah this is so cool! I love how much effort you put into this and I find some of the rankings really interesting, especially with Sao Paulo at #4. Not Oklahoma City keeping its rightful place at the bottom lol 😭

    The Parks | 146.91m | 45s | 35s | 13s | Pangman | Hariri Pontarini

    For sure the case as of now, but I am hopeful that more and more people (especially in my generation) will not fall for the "It's the suburbs/single family infill or you're bad parents" trap I've seen with so many people. Hopefully projects like warehouse park will encourage more families to set...

    The Parks | 146.91m | 45s | 35s | 13s | Pangman | Hariri Pontarini

    IMO there's 99% chance this "dip" between downtown and Wihwentowin will explode in the next decade with Warehouse Park coming in and this project!

    Edmonton | Oliver Exchange | ?m | 2s | Beljan Development | Hodgson Schilf Evans

    What a beautiful project ❤️ Beljan knows how to get things done Also do you guys think this will be renamed to Wihkwentowin Exchange? "WE" would be a nice abbreviation for signs imo

    Edmonton | J123 | 99.06m | 30s | Streamliner | DIALOG

    I mean it's looking pretty good now, I wouldn't be surprised if this lot gets sold and developed sooner rather than later 🤷‍♂️

    Edmonton | Stadium Yards | ?m | 6s | Rohit Communities

    The fact that a ton of good-quality housing and (hopefully) businesses are being built adjacent and connected to an LRT station. That's my guess at least :)

    Edmonton | Falcon Towers | 170m | 44s | Langham Developments | Arc Studio

    Why are you guys judging the design of this building so hard when a third of it is still covered by tarp and barely any of the finishings have been done? It may come together a little more once it's completed imo. It's may not turn out to be an architectural marvel, sure, but its a decent new...

    I mean hey, points for creativity. As someone's passion project (someone with deeeeeeep pockets) I could see that happening, sure. I just couldn't see Westrich having an incentive to do it unfortunately.

    Edmonton | South Edmonton Hospital & Health Campus | ?m | ?s | Province of Alberta

    This. Edmonton is a hub for many many medical services and needs to have the extra capacity to help people from these rural northern areas who come down for specialized care, intensive care, etc. It doesn't matter whether you like to vote for the UCP or NDP or whatever party. Edmonton NEEDS...

    Miscellaneous

    I'm so excited to hear about what's happening with this site. It has potential to be one of the coolest developments in the city depending on how its done imo.

    A vibey evening on Columbia/105th Ave. Can we do more tree planting like this building did? even with the tight space these trees seem to have grown pretty well.

    Jeez, maybe utilizing the character of the building this thread is focused on to expand the conversation further is what creates interesting dialog.

    Edmonton | 114 Street Development | ?m | 6s | Leston Holdings | Arc Studio

    This is true, the City of Vancouver proper has made good strides. I like the densification of their main street corridors like Cambie for example. With that said, in the rest of the metro area (where most people in Vancouver's CMA live) the Toronto-style of skyscrapers next to single-family...

    Edmonton Nightlife (past and present)

    Are there any good clubs you guys would recommend that are still open nowadays? Like I said in the A&N thread, this knowledge isn't mainstream for people my age and everyone just goes to Beercade or the Buckingham so I need suggestions guys 😆

    i can't wait for Imagine Jasper to get to 124th. The new streetscaping isn't anything special at all, I know, but it truly is 100x better than the cracking monowalks and streetlights hanging by strings that exist on this end of Jasper.
