  • Belgravia Neighbourhood Renewal
    BELGRAVIA/MCKERNAN WEST OF 114 STREET MEETING TWO MARCH 22, 2016 6:30-8:30 PM The City of Edmonton is building a great neighbourhood in Belgravia/McKernan west of 114 Street beginning in spring 2016. As the City is committed to involving Edmontonians in the decisions that affect them, residents have been asked to provide input, to identify missing sidewalk connections and opportunities for other investments to add to Belgravia/McKernan’s livability. The City held its first meeting with the community league executive on October 14, 2015. A second neighbourhood- wide meeting was held March 22, 2016. Belgravia/McKernan west of 114 Street residents had the opportunity to review and provide feedback on the neighbourhood preliminary design, and learn about the local improvement process. Staff members from Transportation Infrastructure, Facility and Landscape Infrastructure, Citizen Services, Drainage, and Forestry were on hand to address residents’ questions. The following provides a general overview of comments and questions from the meeting, received from emails and from the online comment form. 114/115 STREET AND UNIVERSITY AVENUE ● VERY POOR INTERSECTION DESIGN. Northbound left turn at University Avenue and 115 Street is in direct conflict with double southbound left turn. Both movements compete for same space in intersection at the same time. Becomes a problem as NBD LT can be the only way out of neighbourhood to the North when Sask. Drive and 119 Street is congested. ● Improve intersection at 115 St and University for pedestrians. Sidewalk on west side off 115 St and crosswalk on east side. ● Another concern I have - that I have voiced repeatedly to the City is the lack of a pedestrian crossing across University Ave.

The identity can be produced either in full colour format, in all black, in all white, or in greyscale. Full Colour vErSion The full colour version should be used wherever possible. it must be displayed on a white background, and must be displayed with the requisite amount of white space surrounding it. when a white background is available the full colour version is the default position – unless there is a reason to use one of the other versions, the full colour version should be used. grEySCalE vErSion The greyscale version should be used on documents designed for black and white production. The tone of grey should remain the same in the spears originating on the left side of the identity, and vary in the spears originating on the right side of the identity. Do not use a colour version of the identity printed in black and white – use a greyscale version of the identity.

  • AGM 2018 Report
    Forth Junction Heritage Society Annual General Meeting Oct. 25, 2018 Annual Progress Report 2018 Another busy, eventful and exciting year has brought us closer to our vision of creating an educational, family-friendly and sustainable community heritage park. The acquisition of the now-closed Calgary & Edmonton Railway Station Museum collection from the Junior League of Edmonton, the encouraging consultation with Red Deer County officials for use of the 60-acre parcel south of the regional nature park at Springbrook and the adoption of the Springbrook Community Heritage Park Master Plan have been the major hallmark accomplishments of the past year. Going forward, the big challenges are increasing public awareness and buy-in, increasing membership, getting corporate and individual commitments for investment and philanthropy, and completing a business plan for the proposed park. These objectives are necessary in order to move forward with the Springbrook site and to have a home to exhibit the acquired C&E Museum collection. The C&E Railway Station Museum Collection On July 11, I received an email from Phalyn Chenard, President-elect of the Junior League of Edmonton, a non-profit women’s leadership organization, indicating that they intended to close the C&E Railway Station Museum that they have operated since 1982 and were looking for a heritage group that could provide a new home for the artifacts, 90% of which had been directly donated to them. Originally, the JLE had decided in 1977 to restore the Strathcona (South Edmonton) C&E Railway combination station, the last remaining station of its type between Calgary and Edmonton, for their headquarters.
