Residents living in Ogden are fighting for a new life for a building slated to be demolished to make way for the Green Line LRT.
Some residents living in Ogden are pushing for the City of Calgary to preserve Ogden Block, located at 7044 Ogden Road S.E., which is slated to be demolished to make way for the Green Line LRT.
"We can take this off the Green Line's hands until 2030, get a good use in there and then post-2030 have a thoughtful conversation about what comes next," Carra said. In 1915, it was a polling station for Alberta's prohibition vote, but it's location between the Canada Pacific Railway tracks and the First World War Convalescent Hospital started moving the use towards residences.
"There was not always enough space in that building, so the building here was used as an extension of that hospital," says Warbeck. The two-storey brick structure has space behind it for the much anticipated Green Line to pass through, and the group says it will ideally be incorporated into the plans for the Ogden station.
