Consider donating to the cause as Richard has been essentially funding it himself. (Thanks Hilly!)

I've donated! Now reached the 100% of its goal. Lets see if we can double or triple that. I know that 1000$ barely even scratches the surface of the cost Richard has put in this site.

Saw that, thanks Matt, exceptionally generous of you and yes... 2-3k would be a nice number.

C2E has been a big part of my life for over a decade. That donation is small considering the amount of hours I've wasted on that site, at work, at home, on my mobile device. Pennies per hour really. I've had bar tabs bigger then this... probably spent more on a stupid pay-to-win style video game.

Despite all of our butting heads, the site is great place to 'connect' with other Edmontonians and engage in lively debate. I'll be very sad if it doesn't come back in some form or another. In the end, we all want to see and discuss, argue, bicker, joke about what's best for Edmonton... and that's what makes the site so great. (Even if my opinion is more correct than yours).

edit: Maybe the DECL can post something on their facebook page about the gofundme?

^ha

I have passed the campaign on to more than a few...

I have a gofundme question:
I put in my C2E name in the first page. On the 2nd page for the credit card info it fills in the name from the first page. Can I still use the C2E name instead of my real name on the 2nd page, or will the credit card company reject it?

I used my C2E name on the first and real name on the second page.

Michael Zabinski’s Ambitious Work Now Garnering National Attention

Congratulations are once again in order for Michael Zabinski, who won an award in the category of Student Projects at the recent 2016 National Urban Design Awards.
The award comes in recognition of Michael’s Regenerating Rossdale plan, which aims to develop Edmonton’s Rossdale power plant into a recreational and community space. His concepts for revitalizing and repurposing the plant served as his Masters thesis in early 2014, and over two years later, Michael’s work is clearly still making waves.

^What are the chances that comes to fruition? It really is a great idea.

Coldrsx · #**3030** Posted **Jun 15, 2016, 4:56 PM**

Rossdale will happen... but will it be us working on it or our kids?

Part of the C2E exodus boat. Hope the site can get back onto it's legs...threw in some change for good measure

In the meantime, I'll come to SSP to get my development kicks. Thanks guys.

seamusmcduff · #**3034** Posted **Jun 15, 2016, 6:21 PM**

I've noticed with Stantec, they're pouring for every level of where I assume the elevators will be going. Can someone explain?

240glt · #**3035** Posted **Jun 15, 2016, 6:40 PM**

So C2E finally bit the dust huh. Oh well.

I see the city has started to set up a Municipal development corporation. They said they'll focus primarily in five or six areas of the city. I wonder where those areas well be ?

Coldrsx · #**3036** Posted **Jun 15, 2016, 6:44 PM**

^not quite... and maybe this will provide some resolve to be more constructive.

240glt · #**3037** Posted **Jun 15, 2016, 6:48 PM**

Hopefully, if they do get it going again, you heed some of that advise yourself

Myself, I'm done with it permanently. There are so many more important things in life

Feel bad for Rich though. The last time we had coffee a year or so ago he was expressing frustration and was considering shutting it down then

^ trolling ensues.

Drumbones2 · #**3040** Posted **Jun 15, 2016, 7:05 PM**

Anonymous donor . But... Is Richard even interested in continuing with the C2E? I think he is very tired of it and someone with tech savy will need to help and take it over if this is possible. Correct?
