    Bonzai Waterslide Ad I only ever recall driving by and seeing the top of the slides, were they really as dangerous as I've heard? Also I seem to recall hearing that warehouse just north was an all ages night club at some point?

    Urban Development and Proposals Discussion

    Retractable turf is a mostly proven (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Retractable-pitch_stadiums), retractable seating, or something that could convert into something similar to the infield seating that exists today, shouldn't be overly complicated.

    https://calgaryherald.com/news/politics/green-line-recommendations-need-approval-funding-continue-transporation-minister This screams 1 of 2 things to me, entering east of city hall or at grade through the center of downtown, take it or leave it, which seemed to be the consensus of what the UCP...

    I miss that registry. I live on the other end of the city and still consider going out of my way for it. They would just fly through people, compared to the hours I've spent at other registries, even with appointments.

    East Village: Success or a long ways away yet?

    Just to add, there is proof within Alberta that a housing first strategy works. https://nextcity.org/urbanist-news/medicine-hat-alberta-canada-city-chronic-homelessness Sounds like MH has had a bit of a back slide since they declared they had ended chronic homelessness, everywhere has post...

    What's up with these 2 buildings being nearly identical. https://www.google.ca/maps/@51.0472877,-114.0583061,3a,60y,243.3h,120.99t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sBOFjy7JMPMKdbNBbIVw4Kw!2e0!7i16384!8i8192?coh=205409&entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI0MDkzMC4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D...

    Except that when provided with the analysis that was completed you don't like the outcome. I'd argue you want to overweight deliverability, considering financial capacity is also already included. The work was done, it just doesn't fit with your perceived best outcome. Take out community well...

    How much will a ticket cost for a Flames game at the new event center? How much will a ticket to ride the Greenline cost? The issue with the funding the event center vs the Greenline is who benefits.

    Calgary's Homeless

    What these faux-vancourites from Marda Loop will never understand is that any solution that doesn't work for 100% of people everytime isn't worth implementing. Forget the results that Medicine Hat have seen with their housing first strategy or that they explicitly stated "it is virtually...
