^^ Am I reading that right? They're basically looking to add a 3rd floor across most of Phases I-III, in addition to all the new office, residential, hotel, retail, and 3-level parkades?

Insanity.

All this blah blah blah is nice, but how about actually making Calgary Trail/Gateway Blvd a more efficient traffic corridor between Old Strathcona and EIA?

That was talked about previously if I recall. Also, they've dropped the arena component of the expansion.

The zoning is a bit perscriptive no? Why not just set the FAR and let the uses sort themselves out?
