Everyone talks a big game about caring about Downtown Edmonton and the businesses here but then we close more roads. Can’t even get to the front door of the Parks. Despite this, the leasing team is doing a great job to fill the building but seeing more no shows for tours is pretty discouraging.

That's not Ian.

That's the fact there's a major chamber under the road that needs to be replaced so the road doesn't cave in due to water seeping into the soil.

I'm going to imagine that Bill would probably be pretty livid if the road caved in and no one did anything in advance to prevent it.

Everyone wants a better downtown but nobody wants the inconvenience that comes with it. I hear a lot of complaints from the seniors I work with. Don’t like the homeless situation and the construction is just the icing on the cake. The swear never to come downtown again.

Also, Parks 2 can't start (or exist) until this work is done.
Necessary evil for them unfortunately

I feel it is probably most frustrating for people coming downtown occasionally and who are not as familiar with the area. Those who are there regularly figure out which roads are open, which are not and how to get around it.

I normally used 108 Street, but I was able to figure out a minor detour without too much difficulty. Although, it is a bit tricky because there are multiple roads closed due in the area due to both building and LRT construction.

The 108th Street problems continue. After being told by EPCOR that they needed a full road closure for safety and they were not being used for contractor parking, here is what we have seen this morning. I've been on a lot of job sites during my career and have never seen anyone carry tools in...
