Kingsway-area businesses faced an identity crisis of sorts.

Alberta Venture Urban Issue

I just received the current Alberta Venture magazine at work today. There is a focus on urban development in Alberta. You can find some of the articles online: http://albertaventure.com/

Its nice to see this topic getting attention from a broader audience, not just the arch and dev people.

^It has nothing to do with bait and switch. Procura, after buying out the partners that started Phase 1 and 2 of CP, has made the decision to revise the overall master plan which they have every right to do.

Ha, if you think this is an 'Edmontonism' you're out to lunch. You're going to have to do better than that.
