Calgary

English · FrenchCAD $5 walks

Glass towers built on oil money over a grid that still remembers cattle. The world's largest network of enclosed skywalks, fifteen feet above the streets it emptied to build them. A city that throws a ten-day cowboy party every July to remember a past it traded for a skyline. Cowtown became the energy capital and never quite decided which one it is.
