The City of Edmonton Archives is such an important institution in this city! So delighted to see them starting this archival outreach. #yeghistory #yegheritage edmonton.taproot.news/news/2024/04/2…
Exciting to see the new Stadium LRT Station win a National Urban Design Award! Kudos to @gecarchitecture @ISLengineering and the others who were part of the design team. canadianarchitect.com/2024-national-…
So sad to see Hangar 11 burn last evening. For some context, here is some of the building's history and what the redevelopment plans had been. We'll now have to see what happens next. # yegheritage youtube.com/watch?v=PY3OQA…
New construction along 83 St in @HolyroodCL, close to the @yegvalleyLRT: row houses with separate entrances for basement suites, new homes on subdivided lots, energy efficiency upgrade of existing house, and supportive living building.
Love this idea of a webinar expanding on a journal article. This is one is about riskprofiler.ca, Canada's first publicly available seismic risk assessment tool and community-specific data that is available.

You may have heard about about Victory Gardens but did you know that Victory Marching -- "workers who save tires and gasoline by walking to their jobs every morning" -- was a thing during WWII, at least in this ad? Never look at a brisk stride's upside-down V the same way again!
Concrete eclipse found in Edmonton.

This graphic puts a lot of things Canada is currently dealing with into perspective. We've had rapid growth before (e.g. the baby boom) but rapid growth in a time of much greater social complexity with so much more infrastructure to maintain -- well, that's challenging.

I've walked admiringly through this sculpture many times in Toronto and now I know the name of its creator, Richard Serra, who died yesterday at age 85. #PublicArt

Justin Trudeau has brought in legislation that gives him the power to fire premiers and provincial ministers he doesn’t think are acting “in the public interest.” He didn’t of course. But.. do you see the problem with Bill 20 now?

@e_backstrom @takeETSalert I have a backpack for my dog. I wonder if I could get away with that on ETS since she would be completely confined and unable to move around on her own.
@e_backstrom @takeETSalert I have seen people with cats in baby wraps on the bus before. None of my cats would tolerate it but I don't mind it. My dog would want to say hi to everyone which may not be appreciated by other riders, unfortunately.
@Marla_jsmith @e_backstrom @HarrySherry @calgarytransit Thank you, I learned something completely new. Have a great day. ☀️
@e_backstrom I never thought about pets on the LRT; my 1st thought was they shouldn't be there unless they are service animals but I looked at the rest of your comments & found something I hadn't considered. I still have questions but ty for giving me something to think about.

@e_backstrom @calgarytransit allows dogs on busses and LRTs without muzzles, just leashes, so hopefully that can become the case here as well (as long as the owners are responsible and taught their dogs manners...).
Amazing to see! 👀

Excited to announce that after 14 years, I have decided to leave CTV News Edmonton. So many miles, some big scoops, countless important stories. Thank you to all my colleagues past and present, anyone who trusted me with their story, and everyone who watched, read & followed.
This is a tough loss… not only a valued link to the past but one of the most exciting projects for our future city. A rare gem.
Heartbreaking to see Hangar 11 burn. It was the last of its kind in Western Canada. It was key in the war effort in the 1940s & had been designated a historical resource. It was to be repurposed as a mixed use retail, commercial, restaurant/patio, event & residential space. #yeg
Last night, Edmonton lost an irreplaceable piece of our history. Hangar 11 was built in WWII and was among the last of its kind in western Canada. Built for function, it retained a timeless grace that I was fortunate to see firsthand in 2022.
@e_backstrom Heartbreaking. Especially the part David said about it not just being a plaque in the ground about what was here before.
Thank you for the detour to whoever is doing this construction
