This week’s Construction Record Podcast sees staff writer Russell Hixson update us on some of his upcoming stoires, including a fascinating look at a prehistoric rock material that has a long history as a key material for some of western Canada’s iconic government and institutional structures.
Digital media editor Warren Frey also discusses a story about the back and forth over the redevelopment of Holyrood Gardens, an older Edmonton neighbourhood that recently delayed a public hearing on the feasibility of high-rises in the area next to an upcoming Valley Line LRT station.
Our other segment is a CanaData East roundtable, with national editor Vince Versace, daily editor Lindsey Cole, staff writers Don Wall and Angela Gismondi, and Warren discussing the many issues covered at the economic forecasting conference as well as a discussion on the topics raised by Carl Bernstein, the keynote speaker at the event.
