Our inner city has gorgeous Victorian homes - and then there's apartment buildings scattered between them. It's mostly low-income, welfare people who live here and the rich have moved out the outskirts of town in these huge McMansions. It's really very sad.

I can sympathize though, the city here is taking down half the trees on the street behind us. Looks pretty bare now. :( How sad to lose all that beautiful nature.

We're hoping to buy the lot beside ours so we can have more room for the kids to roam and prevent another house from squeezing in. Spring has hit here too! There are a few patches of snow on the north-facing slopes, but it's 62F during the day. We're feeling the heat, baby! Still a wee bit frosty at night, but that's okay by me :) I can sympathize with the loss of your greenspace.

I do hope this is the last phase of the development though. Our area is the latest in Yellowknife to be developed…as far as I know, everything else is filled up already.
