where are you getting that info.. curious
I thought that the city didnt want to save any of it.. it was the appeal board that overturned the demo permit

Yeah, but it needs to be identified on the register of historic resources first. and the City would not support inclusion on the register. The buildings are late 60's early 70's

This video/rendering has recently changed, they've updated to the latest version of the 23/Gateway Blvd Interchange (Nov 17/2006)
http://www.23ave-interchange.com/g_animation.html
Don't think its been posted.
Much more detail then previous versions I've seen, and now shows the fly over rather then the underpass

Love the look of the Whitemud/Terwillegar interchange. Much better than the hair-pin currently there

I don't see flyovers on the video - and I see 3 lanes South and North on Gateway. Is the City really ONLY planning for 3? 4 would have been better - even if the 4th is unddeveloped.

I meant the 19ave flyover into the Ikea section of SEC. And yes, its there.

I would hope that the city has the foresight to envision the need for this to be 4-5 lames in each direction, and that it can be expanded.

It IS on the Register already. It was put on this summer.

It is not however a DESIGNATED Historic Resource. I know the Heritage Planner at the City very well, and if the owners wanted to play ball, he's very game.

ah...I stand corrected, I did some research and heres the skinny:

there was an application o put it on the A List, which the heritage planners wanted to support, however the current register only alows for buildings built prior to 1960, so it does not make the criteria, and did not get on the Register. There is Modern Inventory, which the church is listed in, however the Modern inventory has yet to be approved by Council. The Modern Inventory is scheduled for adoption in 2007.

seems kind of an oxymoron to have a modern list of historic resources

Maybe if "modernism" were used instead?
