| | | Posted by -blitzkrieg- So i just moved here not long ago from victoria bc, havent seen a whole lot of posts from calgary on here. where would be some cool places to go exploring? i feel like their might be some interesting places around inglewood. ive also heard of a tunnel the c-train was originally supposed to run through downtown, anyone know anything about this?
| Yes, infact me and some friends were planning to scout around and try to find a way in. I know its sounds stupid and impossible, but it is a goal that we want to attain. I am fairly new to urban exploring, and to this site, but hopefully with the help of this community we can work together to find locations in Calgary. Also, not too long ago me and my buddies managed to find a way into Mc Mahon stadium. The big red football stadium? yeah, that one. It is fairly easy to access and very cool once inside. I would provide images of the stadium for proof but they were shot in RAW format, so the file size is too damn big. If anyone is reading this, if you're still here, feel free to reply. regards, Niko

And therein, as the bard would tell us, lies the rub.

| | | So, RIP the Shamrock Hotel. (Interestingly, I learned from this video that the adjacent Lilydale plant will likely see the same fate as they clear way for a new line of Calgary's LRT. Link to check out what USED to be there on Google Street View here.) See its DB entry here. In order to keep with the seemingly high rate of productivity up in Edmonton, Nicknolte and I headed out last night to scout some things, check progress, etc. Two sites that we had scouted / entered before are now piles of rubble.. for a recession, this city is sure turning things around quickly! More things will open up I'm sure, but last night we also observed the most tightly-sealed location I've ever seen. Blackout lexan panels are individually screwed around each window (with what looks like loctite or something similar) in addition to plywood behind that, and another layer of plywood inside the building. We've been on the roof and found zero possibility of access from up there, too. It's an old commercial building - I won't say what, but it's the size of probably 6-8 houses and currently owned by the city. Nicknolte and I were just stumped about how you'd even start to think about getting inside. More to come on this one later, hopefully. Anyway! I will now leave you with a photo of the only thing I have left from the Shamrock. Hope you're all having a great December! //Sparro
