    Calgary Regional Rail Transit

    Note sure which thread is best for this. But been seeing ads lately from tourism calgary trying to encourage more people to vistit without renting a car which is nice.

    Statscan numbers

    It would be interesting if there was a "Number of Bedrooms" built to be more comparable.

    Urban Development and Proposals Discussion

    I'm expecting we see a lot of projects move forward this summer, between existing proposals and new proposals. Especially with new GST exemptions and low-interest loans for rental buildings from the government.

    General Construction Updates

    Rumour is that the Danish Canadian Club on 11th Ave near 7th Street SW was recently sold in December to a developer as well. However, they have an agreement to stay until at least June 2025.

    Calgary & Alberta Economy

    I believe they stated that the first several new water bombers (the DHC-515) will be built in their current facilities at YYC (they have multiple buildings scattered around as @darwink posted) until their new factory (de haviland field) is ready.

    Calgary Regional Rail Transit

    As far as I know, they already have an MOU or something with CPKC on the Banff rail project. However, who knows how easy it'll be when they try actually getting down to the details of building and operating it.

    Calgary | Midtown Station | ?m | ?s | IBI Group

    It'll be decades before the whole thing gets built. But I wouldn't be surprised if we see at least one or two buildings in the next 5-8 years here.

    Global news this morning said Calgary grew by 71000

    Roads, Highways & Infrastructure

    Makes sense, It's the only line LRT terminus that actually ends at basically the last communities/edge of the city limits. Unless it got a lot closer to Cochrane (which probably doesn't make sense) its a long way off from needing an extension.

    Calgary | The Hat Elbow River | 177.99m | 56s | Cidex Group | NORR

    Yeah, projects passing the proposal stage have slowed a lot as the presale market is not as strong in TO right now ( at least compared to what it was). There are still tons of new proposals though, I figure most developers want to try and get the zoning and such approved so that when they feel...

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

    I'm curious, will the revenue from this fee be paid to the city on top of the lease payment by CSEC?

    Single use bylaw

    Well, that has to be one of the shorter-lived bylaws in Calgary. City Council voted to begin the repeal process today. https://calgaryherald.com/news/local-news/calgary-councillors-vote-scrap-single-use-items-bylaw

    Calgary | BMO Centre Expansion | 25m | 5s | CMLC

    There are few very cities, let alone events that support that size of a stadium. I mean look at BMO field in Toronto, less than a decade old, for a major metro area (4x Calgary) and it only seats about 30K without additional temporary sections.

    Sunalta Heights | 88.39m | 27s | Housing One | S2 Architecture

    Surprised at how long it is taking them to finish this. Very slow progress in the last few months. At this rate looks like the Hat across the street will be open first even though it started much later.

    Urban Development and Proposals Discussion

    It would be nice to see some development. But as I understand it, Calcutta Cricket Club which was there moved simply because they felt it was a dead zone on 17th surrounded by empty lots and wanted to be in a more attractive location. (now on 1st street SW between 12th and 13th)

    Calgary | Riverpark | 18m | 6s | M2SC | Casola Koppe

    It looks like bricks for the back firewall break between this and the building behind.

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

    Yes. They will start off with 2 car trains. But all stations will be built to handle 3 car trains. (The trains are much larger than the current LRT trains to start as well) The designs are not finalized yet, but they have new renderings every now and then you can find on their website. They...

    Canada Immigration discussion

    I 100% support reasonable immigration policies. We need it to keep some growth. But it has been out of control. The bigger issue for me isn't even necessarily housing cost. But the fact that its keeping Wages low, but bringing in cheaper TFW. Companies never have to offer wage increases because...

    Toronto Toronto | Rushden Station | 138.1m | 39s | Fitzrovia | bKL Architecture

    Activity on site has been increasing again. They were delivering some crane pieces yesterday and had multiple drillers set up on-site again.

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

    While I agree that the pricing is high and is relying on the market condo price to keep increasing 10+% per year to make the numbers seem reasonable by the time they're finished. Truman has had success with similar if not higher prices for Broward, Gallery, and Imperia.
