Love the map. The LRT station at 107 Ave and 105 Street is missing. It is completed.

or perhaps it could simply be placed into - or linked into - its own thread where every time it's updated it could get "bumped" to the forefront?

It's a very good map

Either someone can take over the front page or replace it with the map that KM made. I don't have the time or energy to put into it

Great job on the map. Very well done.
Just curious, anyone know any details of a high rise going up on stoney plain rd and 178 street?
I counted 11 stories, and it looks like the crane they have set up could go up to 14...

That's not a station. It's a tree canopy.

And thank you everyone for the praise. I love cataloguing things like this. And I will definitely continue updating it on an as-need basis.

They could simply go elsewhere and help to create a contiguous area for redevelopment of the old Power plant/site. Instead they want to expand to larger new face by the river for their staff to enjoy - not the public. Open house days...give me a break...
Ha. You think Epcor employees want to move into Epcor Tower?

Real neat study out of the U of C and new home construction.

It appears our energy efficient homes are not as they appear.

Maybe we could get this funded properly and look at both cities. I can also see the scam artists using this.
