Yeah, I don't know why people take issue with somebody building a large house in a prominent neighborhood? It happens all over the world and is a regular part of life. IMO it all comes down to jealousy.

With computer modeling you can make a reasonable prediction of the upcoming weather. Of course it's never going to be 100% accurate, but it doesn't have to be, it 's meant to give a general idea.

That's what I've always said, and it's 100% true. There is no good reason for someone to hate on someone's large crib, unless they're a jealous loser.

Almost every day it's sunny. In Calgary often there is blue sky and sunshine weather.

Ummm, there are lots of valid reasons to take issue with someone building an oversized house.

Agreement. It's not good to hate someone's house. Always people have to live somewhere.

What constitutes oversized?

Did they get an exemption from bylaws? If not, what bylaws are the offenders?

There have been five there for quite some time. The four for the cancer centre and the other for that rental apartment building in motel village.

There are several cranes in the university district also. We rarely see those as most of our photographers are high schoolers LOL!

Crane shots are always good

Make sure to get us some mansion shots before Christmas.
