Being 34 I remember when Stephen Ave mall had alot of local little stores, not upscale designer stores, or when the C-train went downtown to Whitehorn or Anderson Station, when there was Stampede Wrestling every Friday night at the Pavillon, living in Strathcona Park with my family when it was new, there were so many streets with nothing but dirt, when 3rd Ave was so full of hookers they were parading on the block as early 4pm every day, when the Saddledome had no banners up in the rafters, when Electric Avenue was alive and full of bars(Fox and Firkin great place to find Joe Nieuwendyk, Gary Roberts and Paul Rainheim hanging out), and I remember going to Western Canada High School on 17th Ave before it turned into the street to party on.
