At least CalgaryNEXT had renderings of what it would look like.
This summarizes my thoughts pretty well:

The questions are many. What will be the shadowing impact? How are street parking and adjacent parkades affected? What sort of stairwells, ramps or — outdoor escalators? — will bring people down from the two proposed stations?
Impact on downtown traffic? There will be no driving lanes affected in the Beltline on 10th, Dreeshen told CBC News in an interview, but "I think there is one lane on Second [Street] that will be affected."
The potential impact on businesses in the Beltline and downtown because of shadowing, parking loss and the forced removal/relocation of Plus-15 overpasses would obviously be cause for concern.
