Went over to the bridge at 4am but they were long finished and the lights were off. I cranked the camera sensitivity and exposure length to max and one photo ended up super bright despite it being very dark. The on screen preview doesn't give a good idea of what the image will look like. If I knew it would be that bright I would have taken a few more shots. The middle part of the bridge remains to be poured. I'll probably go by there this evening and a few other places on the west side.
This evenings photos. https://www.flickr.com/photos/regina...7720325409071/ Work starting on the second Harbour Landing School (also $10 million permit for foundation in current report). Site fencing delivered but not setup yet. Some ground work and starting to build rebar cages for piles.
And a few from Friday night. They are setting up to pour the curbs and sidewalks out at the LTC site. That Kleins on north Broad still isn't open. I peeked inside with the drone and there is ice cream and frozen food in the freezer, the cash register is on. Looking back on Google Maps construction started in June 2022 and the building was mostly finished with the gas pumps installed back in April 2023. After exterior was fully finished they removed the exterior before later reinstalling it.
The online store map for the Aurora shopping area has Safeway on it now.
A few from Saturday Evening. CN rail switch to the Cargill plant installed.
Niebergall believes this is because Regina is punching above its weight in attracting newcomers. https://www.620ckrm.com/2025/07/28/r...rdable-living/
Regina sees 40% surge in housing starts amid strong job market and affordable living
Additionally, a Labour Force Survey from Statistics Canada also mentioned Regina’s workforce was up by 6,400 in June from the year before, and has an unemployment rate of 4.9 per cent, one of the lowest in the country.
Niebergall said these numbers show a different story for Regina compared to most of Canada, as the country is facing housing industry challenges from a reduction in immigration and uncertainty with the economy.
CHMC’s data also notes a 53 per cent uptick in housing starts for single-detached homes in Regina.
I hate it. I get it. But I hate it. Is this to prevent people from turning left into oncoming lanes… particularly the movement from north to east?

My guess was completely wrong. What is in place now is pretty much what it will look like minus a small roundabout north of the #1. They called the design offset lefts. So you will still turn left across the #1 just the lefts will be in different spots. Coming from the west to go north you turn left west of the current road and following the curved road to the roundabout. Coming from the north to go east into Regina you follow the curved road and turn left east of the current road.
I drew what it should look like in the openstreetmap editor so the arrows are easier to see.
Does anyone know why the City's weekly building permit report webpage has not worked for the last few weeks. Maybe Nikki Anderson took the password to Portugal with her?

I had the same problem and contacted them about it 2 weeks ago. They told me the url is https://openregina.ca/ but I had open.regina.ca bookmarked. Presumably they updated their domain routing removing the old url.

Someone was asking a while back what was going on at 311 Victoria where a full height cinder block wall was built in front of the house and then promptly collapsed. Well it has been re-built and there is now a small store front on the street frontage. As you can see the house has a side-facing entrance so can still be used

Instead, it is being demolished and will be replaced by a parking lot for 370 vehicles.

They moved all the staff out of the Casino parkade in April or May (can't recall now) across the street to the Delta Parkade. The Casino parkade doesn't get a lot of traffic so not surprised they are going to a lot instead of rebuilding it. It's a very slow process though.
Built in 2001 and has structural issues requiring demolition, how does that even happen?
Terrible, although parkades are notorious for this.
EDIT: Interesting that it is the top deck. That tells me water (and road salt) was likely infiltrating through cracks and corroding the rebar. One needs to be diligent about sealing cracks on parkades. Harvard is constantly doing this on their many parkades downtown, including Cornwall Street which must close to 60 years old.

That was me. I drive past this every day. I was confused why the house was still standing. You mentioning the side entrance is still there makes more sense out of it now.
I am not creative enough to think of what the plan to do with that small space with no access to the house behind or anything like that.
Stopped by Dewdney Warehouse Area and a few other spots, and a few shots from last night. Next phase of sewer work started at AE Wilson Park. The Ronald McDonald House site is a little interesting. Instead of spending weeks building form work for the first floor, they are installing precast slabs. The Arwel project at Toronto & 15th is moving like molasses in comparison. A modular design probably needs a lot more upfront engineering for construction efficiency and less bespoke framing. Curb / median work started at the LTC.
I was checking instagram and Westridge posted that the north joint use school reached substantial completion last week for the public school and community centre, work ongoing for the Catholic school side.

I would think of it like a mall kiosk. Very small business on a busy street. Probably a common set up in foreign countries. Unusual here.
