If you don't mind watching a little bit of the video on BNNBloomberg on Aurora, CEO Booth - you get to see how the new towers show in the background of the video - kinda cool. But I wish they had pushed the screen a little over so we could see KR in those views.

I got stuck in the jam caused by that stupid check stop the cops put on the Walterdale bridge.

Cops are so dumb, they put a check stop on a bridge that has two large three laned one way roads that converge... what a nuisance. Caused a massive unnecessary jam and probably caught zero drunk drivers considering there's a massive parking lot at Kinsman any drunk ass would have turned in and left their car overnight.

Yeah, I thought it was a major accident until I got close. They caused quite a traffic jam. Anyways here’s another pic from last night.

That is pretty crazy to have one on a bridge!!

Just as crazy to have one on the Whitemud or Henday.

I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw a cop jump out in front of a vehicle going 120 km an hour.

I've see this 2 times on Whitemud and 2 times on the Henday.

I fired of an email to the Mayor's office and my council representative. Just letting them know how dangerous this is and counter productive to safety.

So here's a serious question: do mosquitoes manifest themselves up high? Don't laugh, please. I'm honestly curious. If they didn't, I'd seriously hang out there almost 24/7. One more reason for tall buildings and roof-top decks!

Jesus, Joseph & Mary, that view! No wonder Instagram-happy hipsters love that building. I'd move there in a heartbeat with access to that rooftop deck alone! Glad to see Edmonton will see a ton of copycat structures in the next few years including what I assume will be some version of Tower B @ Ice District, the El Mirador/Knoxville's redux, Grandin Towers and Emerald...
