    It’s easy to focus on what’s been torn down, but what about what’s been saved? This episode explores Calgary’s approach to preserving historic buildings through adaptive reuse. We also preview a new project that could transform two downtown heritage buildings, the historic Fire Hall No. 1 and the North-West Travellers Building.


    Curious what options exist for the downtown Hudson's Bay Building? Listen to that episode here.

    UPDATE: The highly anticipated report about the 2024 failure of the city's key water feeder main is out now, read CBC's coverage here.
