The latest article is up on Sidewalking Victoria. This time I look at that time in the 1990's when we almost built a streetcar line.

The latest article is up on Sidewalking Victoria. Today I look at the recently released plans for Douglas Street in response to the new Rapid Bus Line. Spoiler: The plan does not include it being rapid!

New article up on Sidewalking Victoria. This time I look at how lucky we are to have all this industrial land near downtown.

The latest article up on Sidewalking Victoria is a black and white film review. I look at the in-house developed emulsion Wolfman 35 from the Film Photography Project. Have a look and let me know what you think!

I have been dunking on the City a fair bit in my last many articles this year, so I am happy to finally be writing something positive. Here is my assessment of the new Centennial Square plan. Perhaps the best plan we have ever seen for the space. Have a read and let me know what you think.

Doesn't it house CRD offices now?

Nature, and the CRD office budget, abhor a vacuum.

New article up this morning. This time I look at the new project in Fernwood Square and why I think it provides an opportunity to expand the public space.
