Interested in heritage and city stuff. I don't check twitter that often (or as often as a should?). So if I don't like or retweet your gems, nothing personal!
Today we celebrated 40 years of BIAs and commenced BIA week. I am so proud of the businesses that support their BIAs. All of us benefit when locally owned businesses thrive!
Our City Archives newest exhibit is all around Building Bridges. You can explore how the most iconic bridges in our city were built and have evolved throughout the years. Check it out at: 📍 Municipal Building atrium (800 Macleod Trail SE) 💻Online at calgary.ca/BuildingBridges
MEANTIME ACTUAL NEWS. (For some. Like maybe @daveweigel? ) My interview with @rushtheband frontman, and rock legend Geddy Lee is set to air tonight. Whether you are a Rush superfan or not, it's worth watching. (His new memoir is out + it goes deep - amazon.com/My-Effin-Life-… )
Join me this Thursday, November 23rd @nicklegalleries @UCalgary ! I will be speaking about the @nationaltrustca -- what we do to empower communities to save places that matter, and why heritage is more than historic buildings (although it is that, too!) #heritage
