^thank you sur

[feepa]

These are great photos -

We should see twice as many cranes in the sky in 2008 hopefully

[240glt]

I still haven't gone out to get the rest of the pix yet... I have been feeling a little under the weather this week.

Maybe has something to do with wandering around Churchill Square at 1am on friday in the freezing cold, pissed drunk, trying to find the stairs down to the LRT.

Honestly, I thought they were closer to city hall. I'm suprised I didn't end up in the drunk tank.

There's just something about Edmonton that I can't quite place my finger on. Amid the old, boring buildings there is a certain je ne sais quoi that is strangely appealing. I just can't say what it is.

Heres one of Southgate. Taken awhile back, though.

[rk2000]

Has Lessard House been sold out? does it even have website?

[Kevin_foster]

^ Probably sold out, no one knows for sure. No website, doesn't need one! Not for the general public!

It's called "not being Calgary", jk seriously :D

[Calgarian]

23 cranes in E-town, that's pretty impressive. What is the most you've had at one time?

[Coldrsx]

^honestly i would guess now or 70's

[CMD UW]

Yea, perhaps the early 80's (80-83)...

[Rocket252]

Only 1 crane at the Alex now
