Stripping grading permit applied for event center.
March 27, 2024
Don’t know what the design looks like yet. But at least the footprint doesn’t look like Costco.

So it’s a PCL job right?
They’re using Lego blocks?
second page is also a diagram of a typical convoluted savard powerplay scheme
Where saddle? 🙁
I was looking for it the other day but sadly I can’t find it now… however in the previous pitch the Architecture firm was pitching a new type of stadium which instead of a bowl it’s more like an opera house where each level is overhanging each other with no pillars in the way.
Supposedly WAY better viewing angles for all types of events, concerts, games, etc.
There is only like 4-5 of those type of stadiums out there now.
I hope that it still on the table because that would be pretty cool.
Personally I don’t grade stripping, I think just getting out there is admirable.
Excuse the flair as a Calgarian non-Flames fan (but Hitmen and Roughnecks fan) but to confirm a visual reference for me, it’s being built in the (rough) [area of the red square?](https://i.imgur.com/hvxgTBB.png)
If you look up the FAQ for the event center page on the City’s website, one of the questions is (I’m paraphrasing) Will the event center design be different than the one floated on the previous version? And the City’s answer is (paraphrasing again): YES.

Saw stripping and my eyes lit up
