Hey Daemon - how many times do we have to tell you not to post full sized photos? At a minimum, you need to understand that making them full sized just highlights how bad quality the photos are.

Suggestion: Since you have time during your upgrading year before you make it up to trade school or college, how about going down the Crescent Heights steps and crossing over the Island to get photos of the downtown up close? Very close from there would be the new West Eau Claire Park.

Looks good Daemon, but could use a resize.

No need to apologize. The smaller size pics would be better, but it’s not life or death. Ignore those who are complaining about it, and keep up the good work.

That's because they were the only East Village pics we've seen for a long time.

Maybe the solution is to get off of your lazy ass and take the pics yourself. Daemon's pics aren't the world's greatest quality, but he's the only one who takes them, and he's basically the only guy who contributes anything to the thread period. This thread would be buried 6' underground if not for his photo updates.

It's not new construction, it's some kind of refurb or repair.

There have been several notable posts related to construction and including higher quality information, links and/or photos over the last number of weeks. The reason you are not seeing those is they get buried in the long posts with numerous low quality photos of the same things by Daemon.

Below is a sample of good posts over the last number of days.

Being that much of east Inglewood is within the Airport noise NEF 30+ zone which restricts redevelopment from increasing density, does anyone know how the 4 multifamily buildings at the NE corder of 17a St NE and Bow trail/17th Ave NE were approved? The 2 western-most appear to be completely within the restricted zone where the City says, regarding Inglewood:

Existing residential properties cannot be subdivided to create new residential lots.

The number of residential units on these properties cannot increase.

Anyone know? This is the approximate location of the 4 condos

That would be quite the location for a large residential tower!

Personally, I think Daemon should start posting in the Canada thread.

dg66 · #**2115** Posted **Sep 23, 2018, 10:08 PM**

I did see those posts. No offense, but those aren't exactly 'notable' posts and I think Daemon's photos, whether blurry or not, are better. I prefer the content , and they're more frequent which is nice.

that you posted are better quality, but I already get nice colorful sunset photos on Flickr and Instagram. I like to see construction pics, and prefer the content of Damon's pics, also they're more frequent which is nice.
