Foreground tree next to stop sign, for example. These days, it'd be much faster to kickstart for private replacement than to expect the city to move a finger.

Picture doesn't do it justice then. Looks like it has Methuselah Syndrome!

Yes indeed. A fantastic view of the Leg grounds and river valley.

What is that walkway-type structure in the first two Symphony shots? I am assuming not a walkway given the lack of railings and other safety measures.

it would be my guess that's it's just now being constructed; that there is no public access to it as a closed work site; and that any tradespeople would still be wearing tie down harnesses and straps or taking other safety measures (such as working off a lift platform and not on the structure) until railings and other short and long-term safety measures are in place.

Private pedway from Symphony to the Leg grounds.

[itom 987]

I envisioned the pedway being an actual enclosed pedway, not the access bridge shown above. Fantasy bubble popped!

Fun fact: Jason Kenney lives in the Symphony, when he's in Edmonton for work.
