Going through some of my father’s papers over the weekend.

A concept for a covered stadium in Edmonton put forward in about 1967 but the concept started in 1957, probably over drinks one evening. My father did the original drafting and you can see it in some of the ghost images.
Here is some of the original concept drawings.

We know there was some drawings of the Omniplex concept as well. But those have gone missing.

But what could have been.
