Can you identify in which city you’d find this streetscape? (Hint: it’s not Vancouver.)
Answer below the fold.
It’s Calgary – in the 600-block of Eau Claire Avenue SW. Clearly the impact of Vancouver design in the 1990s is evident – but the streetview image provides a less-pleasant context.
Contrasts!
Wow it certainly is jarring to see such a large surface lot downtown. How soon we forget. It was great of Vancouver to put these underground, starting with Pacific Centre.
Luckily that huge sea of surface parking is slated for some new buildings.

It’s good to know. I was going to say, the parking lot will see development in the due course of time. ……maybe sooner than later!
