dewline: Highway Sign version of "Ottawa the City" Icon (city life)
I'm watching the Built Heritage Committee meeting about this (and other proposals) at the moment.

I didn't know that the old Legion House had already had three extra stories tacked on three years after it was originally opened up. That precedent being established, I'm only mildly surprised by this proposal to raise it to 30 stories. Details here:

We've got a lot of infrastructure modifications going on across Ottawa. So, if video footage by drone fuels your appetites, have a look at this...

I've still got some degree of privilege, despite my financial situation this past year. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to look at those video tutorials. Or, for that matter, read and pass this along:

Nor would I be able to look at this (and thanks to [personal profile] kiaa for passing it along via [community profile] talkpolitics):

Getting to the point: we still want to leave the Time of Pandemic to enter a newer, better "Normal" than we entered it from. Right?

At least McKenzie King Bridge Station will see some more bus-catching traffic again for a few more months...?

I've been getting some overdue updating done to my home website's various pages. Which still need work, I'm sure.

Also, since Google Plus is no more, I needed a way to get some Google Photos albums to where people can see them. So, I've done an update on the Artblog.

Yes, I'm on the Broadbent Institute mailing list for reasons.

So I'm looking this over right now...an opinion piece by one Marshall Auerbach. I don't recall reading their work before, but I want to look this over carefully.

... for Local Hero: scanned, composed and sent off to Ian today.

Also, the library portion of the studio continues its perpetual renovation process apace. More room cleared for newer and better shelving. Gotta keep those how-to books, design reference volumes and general visual inspiration tomes as organized as possible.

And then, there's the recreational reading as well. But more on that another time.

Back to you...
