| | | | CALGARY: The Fast Demos Continue... < on 1/24/2018 7:13 AM > | Reply with Quote
| | | flySparro: "Hey Nicknolte let's go look at this hotel" Nicknolte: "Okay cool let me drive by" **Two weeks pass** Nicknolte: "Okay I drove by, not sure which one you're talking about" flySparro: "This one. Let's take a look this weekend?" **A few days pass** **Nicknolte and Flysparro drive up in their uber explormobile, only to find a pile of rubble** flySparro: "lol.. ok" See the Calgary NW Thriftlodge in its 2017 glory on Google Streetview — So we instead took a look at "Canadas Best Value Inn" just down the road - yeah they didn't know what an apostrophe was I guess. Or maybe they were skirting some trademark... haha. Neat-o little motel, empty pool, got into a few rooms, didn't get into the main office though we would have liked to! Took a look at an adjacent Boston Pizza which was locked up tight. We could have accessed more, if Nicknolte or I were versed in / equipped for lock picking. We also did a few drive-bys and walk-arounds of known locations, but we're currently waiting for some things to move, some things to open up, etc. We had our first infil of 2018 (yay!) but it wasn't a groundbreaking night. Here are a couple quick iPhone pics from Canadas Best: 1. Nicknolte checks a window. Smells like McDonalds. 2. Flysparro does a traditional slav squat in Canadas Best pool. 3. Pool chems, ice machine, life preserver. 4. Canadas Best, night. iPhone X. The light in the lower left is the ice room. Nicknolte will have more images to add, but this was our weekend! Lookin' at you, YEG peeps. ;) Thanks for the good night Nicknolte! This city will be our bitch soon enough. // Sparro

Hahaha yessss. I think I'm gonna start taking the real camera with me where I go... maybe a JOBY or something too, I dunno. Not that there was much spectacular about Canadas Best, but eh, would be good to have a good photo of the parking lot at night. I bet that place will be half way to rubble by February. There's LOTS of development in Calgary planned for our third train line, let me break it down sorta: RED line goes NW to S Central. BLUE line goes NE to SW. If you divide the city like a six-piece pizza, that means N Central and SE have no train. That's where the Green Line comes in. See the map here. So we'll be keeping a close eye on the proposed locations for new LRT stations this year. That's why The Shamrock got razed. There will be lots of acquisitions on behalf of the city, demolishing buildings until construction begins in 2020. So I guess that means we should expect acquisitions etc over the next 2.5yrs. Which is annoying because a place could go from inhabited to demo'd in a month. We'll have to keep a close eye on all of these. EDIT: This shows it well. Why does the SW portion not really go SW you ask? It's a really big reserve belonging to the Tsuu T'ina natives so it hasn't been developed like most other directions. 1. Click to see larger.

| | | All buildings previously pictured in this thread are now rubble. BUT. Nicknolte and I headed out last night to about six or seven locations, successfully infiltrating two of them! Both were unexpected, and one *might* have even left the front door open. We didn't actually try it until we were walking OUT of said front door from the inside... haha I give you, the fruits of our labour. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Expired 2015-2016 6. They were just finishing painting this whole place white, it's been for sale for a while. Painting the inside after gutting it of its electrical equipment, servers, appliances....? Who is gonna buy this? 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. EVERYONE uses Engineered Air. Haha 13. Fun little classroom! 14. Complete with attendance list! 15. 16. 17. Never seen so much copper in my life 18. Again, who would buy this? 19. Who would buy this, cont'd 20. Who would buy this, cont'd 21. 22. 23. 24. 25. 26. 27. 28. 29. 30. 31. 32. 33.

| | | Posted by Fleeting Holy hell they hit the wrecking ball fast out there! Now I must know, what's the narrowest thing you've squeezed through as a POE? I'm not skinny, but I've gone through some pretty small spaces, just ask Rusty Canadian.

Some do, yeah!! I don’t really know why. Even in a somewhat recession, things still go from active, to locked, to rubble very quickly. — I think this door was the sketchiest. Industrial garage door, the ground under it on an angle. One end had 6” clearance, the other end of the door (maybe 10’ wide) was touching the ground. Then, inside the door about 6”, there was a plywood rise of about 3” to the shop floor level. So you had to go under, in, and then sorta come up in order to get into the shop. Bend your shoulders like a cashew.
