"The Harry Jerome location puts us right in the heart of a shared public space, which is very aligned with who we are," Kim recently told Daily Coffee News.

"Our heritage is rooted in building gear for people who live and thrive in the mountains, and that includes our own team. Many of us ride; our athletes ride. Mountain biking is part of our culture," Ashley Anson, VP Design at Arc'teryx, said.

Built in 1913, the building calls back to the city's early development, much like the commercial clusters just a block or few long that are nestled in so many neighborhoods.

Once a nice-to-have niche urban design concept, TOD has become an essential part of many urban neighborhoods. It has helped address the shortage of housing by enabling the development of higher-density residential communities near transit stations. It has helped revitalize countless once-deteriorating or static urban enclaves near transit hubs by activating sidewalks near the developments. And it has spurred walking and transit use, enabling residents of TODs to reduce or eliminate automobile dependency.

About fifteen kilometres northwest from Kitamaat is Kitimat, the industrial town that the global mining group Alcan (acquired by Rio Tinto in 2007) carved from the rainforest in the 1950s to house workers and support the needs of its aluminum smelter.

We are profoundly grateful to the Chan family for their extraordinary generosity and their commitment to making Stephen Shore's Uncommon Places accessible to all. Few bodies of work have so decisively changed the course of photography.

Daylight saving time has been shown to have a lot of negative effects. And actually the United States tried permanent daylight savings in the seventies for one year. It was so awful that they reverted it almost immediately. People went to work in the dark and children walked to school in the dark. And then, there were a few fatal car accidents.

Growing up in the midsize city of Vancouver, Canada, I always dreamed of living in a big metropolis - a cultural hub where something was always going on, with endless places to explore. For a while, I did. When I started dating a Brit, I moved to his hometown of Birmingham, England, the second-largest city in the UK population-wise, with over a million residents.

I'd been on the island for less than a week when I opened my glove box looking for sunglasses, only to find the wrapper of my emergency granola bar torn open and the corner nibbled, right next to a neat little pile of mouse droppings. As I inspected the rest of the car, I was mortified to realize it was likely more than a single mouse. I texted the friend I was housesitting for in disbelief. "Ugh, I'm sorry! That's so island," she wrote back.

Hootsuite Inc. has been pursuing business with Immigration and Customs Enforcement in the United States, more than five years after employee backlash forced the Vancouver tech company to cancel a contract to provide social-media management services to the agency. The company secured a US$95,000 pilot project with ICE in September, according to internal communications obtained by The Globe and Mail.

Seven years of development allowed Openspace Architecture and landscape designer Paul Sangha Creative to thread a 10,000-square-foot single-story home through mature forest without sacrificing the canopy that defines the site's character - a constraint that ultimately generated the building's gently curving plan and its sequence of connected spaces opening to Saanich Inlet views. The design draws from mid-century West Coast Modernism's timber traditions while incorporating Japanese structural principles that extend beyond aesthetic reference.

The competitive bid process, which launched Friday, will allow B.C. Hydro to manage the grid appropriately when it comes to the fast growing high-load sectors including AI and data centres, according to Energy Minister Adrian Dix at a news conference Friday. Charlotte Mitha, B.C. Hydro's president and CEO, said that without a structured process, the power utility could easily be overwhelmed by power-intensive requests from AI and data centres.

Schacht, originally born in Germany and educated in Europe, moved to Portland in 1883 after the German government claimed his Hamburg home via eminent domain, and he decided to move as far away as possible. While his work over his four-decade career spanned a variety of architectural styles, it has been noted that after 1900, he was "among the first Arts and Crafts-influenced architects to practice west of the Rocky Mountains."

Vancouver has experienced an unusually warm winter, on track to be its first without snow in 43 years. Even the bees were out in Vancouver Thursday. (Nav Rahi/CBC) The city is already looking lush and green after one of its warmest Januarys on record. Some of its famed cherry blossoms were blooming by the middle of last month, and have since been joined by daffodils and other flowers.
