I feel like The Forks in the peg was a historical building, which helps add some character Eau Claire is lacking… but it’s possible they just covered up some old masonry.
They made them keep the old smoke stack from the 1886 Cafe.

It was built on land leased from the City of Calgary but then the owner bought out the ground leases.

In fact Calgary is unique in that some of our office towers are actually constructed on land leased from the City or companies like Manulife.
