September 13, 20231 yr comment_661763 I remember seeing a lot of great blues acts at the Windsor in the 1980's and 1990's. The Windsor and Times Changes Cafe a block away were the places to go for blues in Winnipeg.
September 14, 20231 yr comment_661796 I work at citi place in the office tower. The Windsor fire was wild. I wouldn't be surprised if it was arson honestly but old building and crappy electrical likely the cause.Couldn't see the new condo on main for a bit really Edited September 14, 20231 yr by Goalie
September 14, 20231 yr comment_661798 Most likely homeless people as the sight had been broken into earlier and the fire department called, It's getting cold and these people are looking for warmth probably setting some materials on fire to stay warm and it got out of control. It's been demolished already. Edited September 14, 20231 yr by bustamente

October 5, 20231 yr comment_666375 NOT trying to turn this into a political thread, but I am happy to see Gillingham immediately prioritize homelessness now that the election is over. I also saw a month back that he travelled to Texas (Houston) for some information sharing on possible solutions. Edited October 5, 20231 yr by Super Duper Negatron

If you are THAT allergic, just don't order out.

No plans to replace it, unfortunately. They were still hinting at moving the rail yards, which is a pipedream. No one has money for that.
November 22, 20231 yr comment_679210 Pick this off CBC online The city has been talking about replacing the bridge since 2011. Engineers presented a plan for a new three-lane span in 2018 at a price tag of $330 million, which Nierinck said would be higher now. You have to think by the time it's replaced it will double that or more. In the meantime they will do more assessing and maybe a stop gap effort to keep it alive for another year
