Further, the project has driven billions in additional development downtown, a lot of which is residential, which will in turn build the tax base, increase density and create a more active, liveable downtown. Something Edmonton sorely needs.
As the construction nears completion, we are really starting to see what it will look like and it looks pretty awesome. The pedway connecting the building to the forthcoming Winter Garden is going to be a really cool feature.
I've already got tickets to an event the month it opens, can't wait.

Hopefully on your way to the event your car doesn't fall into one of the giant pot holes that line every street in that city. I think the entire edmonton road repair budget for the last few years got rolled into Katz's pockets somehow in this deal.
