More of BMO Field, and some random soccer mania I found on flickr.com. I actually feel bad for the Raptors, they're in the playoffs but this whole city seems to have jumped on the soccer band wagon. Can't say I'm surprised after the craziness we had last year during the world cup.

The other is the Victoria skyline. What is the problem with that place? Was it designed by the same people who designed Saskatoon? Everything has to be a rectangular sandstone beige box?

Too much glass or too nice a curve and a design will get rejected by the city's panel for being "like Vancouver." Also, the height restrictions prohibit slender proportions, hence the glut of fatscrapers.

Anyway, probably 80% of the large buildings visible in these pics were built prior to 1980. There are actually quite a few fine modern buildings in the mix (and maybe 15-20 under construction) but you can't see them because they're obliged to be much shorter than the existing dreck. Thus, the height restrictions that were instituted as part of the backlash against the commie blocks of the 1960s and 1970s have actually amplified the drab presence of the older buildings.

Same valley but it's actually near a bedroom community called Deer Valley. Community on a golf course. It's about 15 minutes away from Regina. The valley is brown now, but will glow green in the summer months.

Expensive course too....

Errrr, well I guess it was only $70....but that's expensive considering how many courses are in the area and the fact that it's spring and conditions aren't prime.

Last Mountain.

My family has a cottage on the same side of Last Mountain Lake. That place has a really rugged beauty that most are unaware even exists. Stark contrast from the seas of flat fields that are 20 minutes away.

A new Saskatchewan grain car. Nice design. :) Almost as good as Alberta's 70's font blue and gold cars. :)

A boat filling up at a grain elevator along the Kaministiquia River. This is one of the smaller ones, I think the second or third smallest? I thought it was abandoned but apparently now.

it should be noted for the out of towners that the big open lot on waterfront drive in that nice winnipeg photo was home to the steam plant, which provided power to downtown for a century and will soon have a nice new 'exchange district friendly' condo development on it....you can see the sales centre near the street.

there is also an RFP out to develop that dockyard on the river....it is curently where the river boats dock.

Talk about unlimited potential.
If Winnipeg could get some of those gaps filled and one or two more 400ft+ buildings around that cluster it would be an amazing joint. C'mon, Winnipeg, get on it!

Yes! We should hide our city's blights! We want people to think Winnipeg or Waterloo or Vancouver is a perfect, blightless city with no problems what so ever! Everything is perfect in our happy storybook land!

I have searched this forum extensively and find no mention of smaller Canadian cities other than North Bay Ont. Does anyone have some recent pics of this classic prairie city of some 80,000 people? If so could you post them. I have been an avid follower of the city's growth and development over the years. Although I have kept upto date on the general progress I am not able to find good images of the skyline (there is one) other than a poor one I took many years back from the west side near the University. This is my firsst ever post of any kind. I am looking forward to many more.
