Makes sense. On one of the renders, you can see the name Fairmont on the entrance canapy.

I was hoping for a Shangri-La or Ritz Carlton...just because we already have a Fairmont, but I trust this Fairmont will be a really nice hotel.

I usually associate Faimonts as older classic hotel, but they have some interesting new ones out there.

Wow, I didn't know this one was this far along. Calgary is on fire! (Not literally, of course.)

Thanks again for these updates Ford! I tried to get a photo update of this site yesterday, but couldn't get in close enough.

I take it that small pond in the middle is just a spot to collect all of the water so they can pump it out?

Nice updates!

You are correct, Surrealplaces. There has been very little water so far in the excavation considering the proximity of the river.
