With Calgary's growth comes destruction. Whole buildings are demolished overnight, leaving only rubble that will soon be cleared for the next development. Apartment buildings are emptied of their tenants and turned into condominiums. Homelessness and virtual homelessness is at an all time high. Even small businesses and non-profit organizations are displaced as prices increase.

How do we absorb and adapt to this recurring cycle of displacement and transformation of urban form? How do we rebuild and maintain our homes, identities and communities when our physical environment is in constant flux?

On the road again is an attempt to create a new space where Calgarians can discuss these issues and create a record of their stories, memories and opinions. Please comment or post to this blog (no registration necessary). You can also email your contributions to: jennifer@housingaction.ca .
