It seems everyone is for saving old buildings (us included) but when it comes time to grab a shovel, in a figurative sense, then it’s the sound of crickets.

Is there a community group that would help with the building? Sometimes even the neighbours would rather see it go than stand up to defend it.

I find it interesting that Heritage Calgary made the statement about getting the building designate, but then there seems to be no traction from the City on actually carrying it out. Unless the City doesn’t want to be the one holding the bag at the end of this, especially if the Green Line is going through that area.

Agree, not everything can be saved but still it’s sad to see them go. This building is one of the last from old Ogden.
