    Calgary Flames Official Thread

    From my understanding from what the owner specializes in is experience management. Someone like that knows you have to get it right. You can design some cool jerseys that just say Utah.

    Calgary | The Barron | 43m | 11s | Strategic Group | Gibbs Gage

    This is the way to go, They're trying to get water from a stone VE'ing this.

    Calgary | Trail 19 | 22.25m | 6s | Eagle Crest | FAAS Architecture

    It's actually pretty good. It is interesting design, without being too much and the materials do work well-ish together.

    Roads, Highways & Infrastructure

    That drives me nuts, "oh the lanes disappearing, wait there's the lane". Finishing a project, what a concept.

    Calgary becoming the next Detroit: A look 10 years later.

    Hmm wondering about our next big projects and if that number will rebound? Green Line, Events Centre, and Arts Commons are what I can think of, the latter two not really being huge employment pulls.

    Better Trip? Utah and Colorado (Boarding/Skiing) LA and Anaheim (Cool City Culture (except transit) and Weather) Tampa and Florida (Weather and cheaper tickets) New York and New York (Cool City Culture)

    Calgary becoming the next Detroit: A look 10 years later.

    Is that a typo? If not, it is remarkable we're building as much as we are.

    Water-cooler discussion thread

    Looks out window: Confirms the sky is blue. It is very unremarkable and forgettable, perhaps I need to see an ad campaign that goes along with it to "get it". I came up with a slogan, "Look west, be your best". References the mountains, that we're west of the center of the universe, that you...

    Calgary becoming the next Detroit: A look 10 years later.

    Credit to Canadian Oil and Gas, they've become leaner personnel wise and thus more agile when it comes to the ups and downs. TMX also seems to be a bit of an equalizer for the price difference, so they should bring more price stability to WCS. Calgary was just ahead of every other major North...

    Urban Development and Proposals Discussion

    I think they're waiting for the June rate announcement. Being able to save even a little on financing seems worth it.

    Urban Development and Proposals Discussion

    Saw this in a budget summary on CBC: Taxing vacant land? As part of its push on housing, the federal government also says it's looking at vacant land that could be used to build homes. It's not yet committing to new measures but the budget says the government will consider introducing a new...

    There's a plan and even funding from the state but it is based on the Olympics being awarded to SLC in either 2030 or 2034. It is all but guaranteed they'll get one of those, ironically after France (much like the upcoming summer games in Paris and then LA). That news should come before the...

    Calgary | Green Line LRT | ?m | ?s | Calgary Transit

    If the city-wide rezoning goes through the Ogden corridor right next to the Green Line should be completely redone in no time. Unfortunately this will remove some affordable housing near a train but as city-building goes it couldn't be a better opportunity for density.

    Can you explain the difference between double track and separate track?

    The NHL has recently been to the rink and Smith is apparently making changes. I assume they'll be staggered over the next few years, like a good city of Calgary Main Streets project.

    I have also recently been to Chumir, checked the wait times and Chumir was the quickest, on a Sunday morning I only waited 10 minutes to see a doctor for what ended up being minor.

    Sorry if I'm missing the joke but you realize the stanley cups they're mentioning are made by Stanley and are cups.

    C'mon Utah Yeti! It is too perfect and think of the merch! SLC will be huge success. In Houston, you're the 4th or 5th best ticket in town while in SLC there isn't a lot of competition, you're automatically the second best ticket in town (third if you count the choir haha). I'll also call SLC...

    Calgary | Calgary Event Centre | 36.85m | 11s | CSEC | HOK

    You think there would be.

    Apologies for the hyperbole, I don't mind it at all, just used it as vehicle to express my point on this being city redefining.
