NIMBYism is there, as I have a few friends who live in Sunalta, Bankview and even the Shaganappi Trail area who are concerned about more density/new venues in addition to what's already there. Although to be fair, the scale is far less than other projects.

That being said, just wait until the creosote cleanup is planned and funded; I think that's going to be very bothersome to a lot of Calgarians, especially since it has crept to the other side of the river, basically where Memorial Drive is.
