what a state of affairs where the best that can be said is "it has one angle that i don't completely hate".

i'm just hoping to be able to say the interiors are a success because from the inside you'll be in the only place where you won't have to look at the outside other than coming and going.

West Edmonton Mall Transit Centre is being temporarily relocated to the overflow lot on 90th Ave to accomodate station construction.

The bike lane and vehicle lane looks great, I just hope the concrete median between the two is higher than what is shown since that won't do much to protect cyclists for an errant driver.

That makes zero sense then without planters or even those less desirable green stanchions.
