I went out Christmas Day to take a few shots for the Saskatoon Construction Thread (http://forum.skyscraperpage.com/showthread.php?t=90212) and ended up with a few extras. Since it's been a while since the last Toontown feature I figured I'd throw 'em up here. Nothing too exciting. Have fun...

Had lunch there to day

Riverfront redevelopment...this is the much hyped but rather disappointing landmark. I'll admit it looks nice at night when lit. See here (http://www.riverlanding.ca/project_update/phase1/prairie_wind/images/photo1.html)

Very un-Saskatoon-y

The developers promise a 'first of its kind to Saskatoon' development. That could mean just about anything. They decked one of our few rowhouses. That's OK, it was a dump.

The new development sign is about to celebrate it's 2nd anniversary. I'm calling BS.

Like I said, nothing too exciting. Thanks for viewing.

Looks nice. I'm surprised places were open on Christmas.

Nice pics! So much snow, and we don't have any in Minneapolis. As a matter of fact its raining right now! Glad to see some places are actually getting winter this year.

Nice pics. I especially like the third from the bottom (looking up the sidewalk)I was actually in Saskatoon and Regina over the holidays and the snow you have is nice to see. There's none in Cowtown.
