That's the steps of Livingston (Pengrowth). I work in the other building. I wonder how that new development on 2nd & 3rd is doing, right now its just a big hole in the ground. Yikes!

Nah it's specific to Canuck fans and the NE is where they tend to live in Calgary.

Yep, this is the block immediately beside City Center development. It's probably a big swimming pool now.

Shouldn't get too much higher than that, As that seems to be about where ground level should be relative to the outside.

Looks like as soon as the water recedes we're going to be making an emergency trip up to Alberta to help....

I'm surprised they aren't pumping the water out of the dome as fast as possible. Fast track a new stadium!
