Agreed the riverwalk is incredibly well done. Touch the water has been a concept for far too long.

That along with progress on something new for LMP, say a skate park, beach volleyball, pickleball etc. would do wonders.

Calgary has committed to developing their waterfront. Edmonton hasn’t. We are still stuck deciding whether is a protected green space or a tourism/leisure space.
I think we need to commit to the central areas being developed. Don’t raze forest, but make it a destination, add amenities, invest. Mackinnon ravine/groat bridge to riverdale should all be given a ton of love to truly develop a waterfront district.
Get the gondola done and rossdale going. Redo touch the water to be way better. Get more amenities added for recreation and hospitality. Kinsmen park/Queen Elizabeth pool exist on the south bank, lets add more to the north.

haha, don't tempt me with a good time. (I'm sure Knack would be happy to get less emails from me though lol)

... for another 50 years?
I don't know if our municipal government really doesn't care to have nice things around the river valley or if the bureaucratic inertia here is so much worse on this than elsewhere.

I say without knowing well but in general I think these guys are fairly successful at tamping down development https://rivervalley.ab.ca/

That looks absolutely stupid; sorry, it does.
Why would I want to be in a pen within a pen and no views?

It'd be sure nice to see the sidewalk/multiuse path on Grierson Hill be redone at some point. The dropoff in quality is noticeable emerging from the trails from LMP.

Maybe they've created a random attack buffer zone.

I forgot this existed, would be slightly less strenuous than the eastern path up from Tawatina Bridge.
