I love this homage to mid-century architecture and the origins of Meadowlark Park. History is not just sandstone anymore...



And the setting in "Meadowlark Park" north of the new interchange at Glenmore and Elbow:

Hey, I found this picture of Meadowlark Park from the early 60s on a blog. The photo must have been taken from Mayfair Place, looking to the north east. Milton Williams School, demolished for Glenmore Trail expansion in mid-ground to the left, Chinook Centre in the background. Cars waiting at the intersection of Elbow at the bottom of the image. Phil's pancake house is still there, on the right mid-ground.

Here's a link to the blog, written by a former Calgarian:
