The first season of City High Fortune takes place on the 200 Block of 17th Avenue SE in Calgary, Alberta. For the best experience, bring your headphones and internet device to the block and locate the bronze markers set into the sidewalk. The tour will begin at the marker S.1 E.1.
A story of Calgary; a story of any city or any life. How can you reconcile the murky past with the murky present?
A 70-storey tower was once proposed for the north side of the 200 block of 17th Avenue. Episode two draws on excerpts from a pamphlet for the building, discovered at the Canadian Architectural Archives. Presented with permission from the original publisher, Calvantage Monument.
