While downtown Boston Pizza buckles, traffic shifts towards Ice District, and some see signs of recovery As a longstanding Boston Pizza on Jasper Ave. shuts its doors, questions rise about Ice District sucking energy from the rest of downtown.

Wayne Jones, co-owner of the Rocky Mountain Ice House, just down the avenue from the Boston Pizza, said he’s seeing a turnaround in business in the daytime lunch crowd, but it doesn’t yet extend into the evening. #yeg #yegdt

A group photo - Dancing Cree dancers and drummers pose with community leaders from Edmonton’s Chinatown, Indigenous elders, and with Edmonton city councillors, NDP MLA Janis Irwin, Senator Simons and other community leaders, in the sunny RAM atrium. In the foreground, we see dramatic shadows of people taking cell phone photos. In the rear is a very large statue of a mammoth, the signature symbol of the museum.

This delightful cross-cultural Lunar New Year party was a reminder that in #Edmonton we are all Treaty people - and that Chinese settlers have been part of Edmonton’s story since 1890. #RAM #ChineseNewYear #LunarNewYear #yegdt #abpoli #ableg

The glory days of the old school movie theatre are long gone, but I have fond memories of going here as a teenager. It is sad to see it boarded up and unloved, but I am glad it is still with us as a reminder of years gone by.

The Edmonton LRT system truly is an engineering marvel and part of a world class transit system. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

'Light at the end of the tunnel': 2025 saw signs of recovery in Edmonton's office market As office vacancy rates ended the year at pre-pandemic levels, market watchers are predicting a more bustling downtown in 2026.

“No one wants to be the first company to ask for more of their employees to come work in the office. But, once you have a couple of really big ones, then everybody is ready to kind of walk in lockstep.” #yeg #yegdt
