Honestly if it became CanadInns the awful red awnings would have at least fit in...

Speaking of bright red, the Traveller's building (Peasant Cookery) is getting a bit of a makeover. They have started painting the ground level window frames a popping bright red vs. the sort of burgundy that it was. Will definitely stand out.

1919 General Strike Monument 'Bloody Saturday'
Location: Pantages Playhouse Theatre Plaza Artists: Bernie Miller and Noam Gonick Status: Completed Description: On a Saturday six weeks into the 1919 strike, tens of thousands of people gathered on Main Street at the former city hall to support striking workers and to protest the arrest days earlier of labour leaders. https://i.imgur.com/PqPU6oU.jpg When a streetcar driven by strikebreakers approached, demonstrators rocked it off its tracks and set fire to it. The North West Mounted Police, joined by untrained special constables, rode into the crowd with clubs and guns. Bullets were fired. Two people died and dozens were injured as a result of the confrontation on a day now known as Bloody Saturday. https://i.imgur.com/6IhjQNQ.jpg?1 https://i.imgur.com/Szas1Td.jpg https://i.imgur.com/sVkWJ9z.jpg https://i.imgur.com/ljDA3o4.jpg https://i.imgur.com/8SCy2WZ.jpg https://i.imgur.com/s2m3UE2.jpg |
When can we expect the mb museum to move forward with thier science center project?
Also i believe our dt has way more potential than calgary and edmonton.. we have so many surface lots available to build new and exciting projects on where as those cities have limited space... also projects like true north square and with what's going on at the forks and old psb it can really push us over the top... even the area around u of w is seeing alot of growth and development |
Maybe after the 2023 provincial election
|
I really love the General Strike monument. It really grounds our city in time and place. A real sense of history. More please!

How vandal-proof is it?
|
Does anyone have information about the building currently being constructed in front of the new Best Western hotel build on Regent Avenue?

In Toronto, the question would be how the city ever agreed to allow an entire 500 square feet of space downtown to be devoted to something other than a condo. |
