The name is setting the bar low already.

There’s been a massive drill across from the Superstore in Seton. Not sure which project this would be for. Must be for a parkade?

Matt Jones will be hearing from me if it’s only to Ogden.

Let’s not forget that Steve Allan was the Kenney crony who was paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to find a non existent conspiracy against Alberta Energy and came back with zero evidence after multiple extensions.

No matter what this link needs to be built. If you don’t bite the bullet now it will only cost more later. It’s like the tunnel to the airport that was widened to accommodate future lrt. It cost more to do that but it needed to be done for any future connection to work.

Could they not commit to phase 1 to Ogden and have the next segment further south waiting and ready to be started by the time Phase 1 is complete? Also, I thought it had to be built to Shepard for the maintenance facility.

HP DesignJet 2.0 or parkade barnacle with windswept plaza and burnt out LED screen?

Looks like a decent design. I'm happy they're renovating rather then demolishing it. There's something to be said about variety and this modernist beast has a unique shape that new projects wouldn't have.

I don't understand the random posts sticking out along the edges. Are the ones closest to the market supposed to get a metal awning attached to them like in the last few photos? That's the only thing that would make any sense.

Well that’s disappointing.

We’re talking about a quarter of the city (geography-wise) having no lrt access.

Looks like the corner store is gone. Are they building a new one or did they just move the original to bring back after?

Oh man! The unforeseen problems of flashy building envelopes. That’s just nasty looking.

The SElrt is a political issue. The UCP has made it so. Ever since 2019 they’ve been dragging their heels on it, while their big donors mount repetitive, ignorant and questionable ‘stakeholder’ protests from billionaires who have never taken transit in their lives. The reason I bring up our...

What a stupid comparison to make. Public transit is a public service. It’s not intended to be dependent on GDP. But hey, providing mobility to the workforce clearly provides a financial case as well. Particularly if you want to attract young talent that doesn’t necessarily want a car dependent...

The siding already looks dented. Just wait for a hailstorm so strike. Surprised that material is even allowed in the city. Looks like aluminum siding,

The pit is getting pretty big. Surprised there’s no shoring along Elbow dr.

That cannot be the final product… At least paint it white!

I noticed Southcentre has a new elevator shaft going straight up in front of Decathlon and beside Earls. Looked it up but this is all I could find, https://retail-insider.com/retail-insider/2024/01/southcentre-mall-marks-50th-anniversary-with-community-initiatives-in-calgary-interview/ Have to...

So they can just build the cheapest, at grade option that fails Calgarians and Edmontonians, if they build anything at all. Fuck the UCP. I hate how they’ve politicized this project from the get go and how they’ve dragged their heels and delayed the project and are now complaining about the cost...
