Am I cursed or something? 😤

Alas at 8:06am the funicular is broken, elevator still working on this fine Friday morning

If you survived a tough week, sometimes you get a drone shot of the funicular as a treat.
Thanks to dronesloan on IG for the image.
Funicular and elevator are both fine

Remembering a legend.

Bittersweet but the community will continue, a legacy that will impact our Edmonton community in ways Dr. Markland could never even imagine.

Rest in peace, wishing you a safe journey beyond the stars.

My morning highlight was witnessing two pileated woodpeckers having breakfast as I walked up Alex Taylor Hill.

Watched all the cars zip past, missing this simple joy.

Reaffirmed the importance of being multi modal. You miss a lot when you're in a metal box.

I'm pretty sure that in 2025, when someone passes away unexpectedly, there are a number of predatory, AI-driven, fake obituary websites that post unsanctioned info.

Just an FYI, because I think that's happening today.

Happy #CarFreeDay

It means I can safely stop in the middle of a bridge and enjoy the scenery!

sound fields, a journal about the art + practice of documentary audio that i make w/ many brilliant folks just launched its second issue. The subject: archives. i wrote something for it about how to save the truth, we must all become archivists for the future: www.soundfields.org/02-letter-fr...

Situation remains the same at 7:55 am

ELEVATOR IS DOWN
Hey @cityofedmonton.bsky.social why does the website say the elevator is running when it’s been down for three days?
Funicular is running fine at
7:22am.

Oh woe at around 9:05 am the Funicular came down, and then had an existential crisis, doors not opening for anyone.
Cut my losses and went through conference centre

This is on Dreeshen.
Happened at an intersection where the UCP removed speed on green photo radar.

There is no good reason to put a price tag on a vaccine booster when the rest of the country is not following suit. Albertans are already dealing with increased public health issues as we live in the Measles capital of Canada and people will face forced drug treatment, harming their bodily autonomy.

Did you know, despite this deceptive sticker, the button actually summons the funicular to you!?

Elevator and funicular worked well this fine Aug 25 Monday morning as of 8:50am

Alas, whilst the elevator functioned, at 8:50 am the funicular came down halfway, got shy, fled back to the top. A city worker is on scene assessing the situation.

Me & my fellow cohort, detoured through the conference centre whose inner funicular and escalators were working.

Shout out to public art! “Turbulent” by Jill Anholt has been recently refreshed with a new coat of paint.

A few clouds this morning, but a grey day here and there is fine by me. Heat it’s gonna get hot later!
Been a minute since I took a funicular selfie.

Did anyone notice the abundant goji berries beside the top of the funicular?

Happy Monday, funicular friends!
The only thing I really missed while on vacation was my commute. How many car commuters can say the same?

Before I left the house, I consulted the CoE website and found it most unhelpful. No idea what I would find when I got to the funicular.

And the verdict:
Elevator is working!
Funicular is working!
7: 21 am.
Happy Friday, funicular friends!
