That presentation was a surprise to me. Their plan for the west village is a joke. The message was 'well, we'll put this project there and then the west village will revitalize itself''

How can anyone say that this is transformative when their plan doesn't include the realignment of bow trail and orphans the river.
The presentation was fairly underwhelming to say the least but I think at this point it was obvious it was all a big smoke and mirrors event, the first public relations salvo in what will be a long battle. King King and the Flames group had sympathetic council members on their side, helping to deflect even the mayor's prepared statement during Q&A.

Wouldn't surprise me in the least if the Flames know and fully realize that the parking and Bow Trail issues need to be address but think this might help push that issue at City Hall.

We're just getting started.
