Episode Two: Frankly my dear, let's build a dam (1930 - 1946)

As a legacy to the 1911-2011 Calgary Planning Commission Centennial, "A Century of Vision," The City is currently developing a series of six short videos and corresponding teacher resources that are intended to instil in students an appreciation for and understanding of the city planning process and the role citizens play in realizing the vision for our community. www.calgary.ca/cpc100 ​

I love this series and wish the city would update it. Victory Housing is/was and continues to be some of the most solidly built affordable mass market housing ever seen in Canada with most of these structures still in really good shape after 80-ish years...

The host continues to trigger my curiosity. I will call him John until someone names him. Are you a space scientist on holiday who was asked to create this series and you were like 'fine, but I'm doing it my way'? Delightful.
