You know what's really pitiful about Denver's LRT ridership? Not only does it do less than 1/4 the ridership of Calgary's (70k/day vs. 300k/day) despite being longer (39 miles vs. 30 miles), but even after FastTracks is completed, and Denver has over 100 miles of LRT, Denver's LRT will STILL be doing less ridership than Calgary. LOL.
BTW, Holt Renfrew is WAY more upscale than Neiman Marcus, aka Needless Markup. Sorry.

a) it's not my city
b) how are the pictures fraudulent? They are of downtown Denver. So you're a lying idiot. Look at the street names, and look at a map of downtown Denver. They are clearly downtown. They are WELL within that "3 mile by 3 mile" "downtown" of your pathetic city. Hahaha. 3 miles by 3 miles = 9 square miles. 63,000/9 = 7000 people per square mile. That's a pitiful density. There are suburbs denser than that. Calgary's downtown has more than twice the population density according to YOUR OWN LINKS.
c) I posted a list (with links) to 4 pro sports teams in Calgary. You keep saying there is one. You lie.
d) Your city is getting the smack laid down. Look at the poll - 36 to 25 last I checked. And you are alone in your delusions. Both jacob and I know that you're full of it. So does everyone else.

According to DTown, 30 X 40 = 120. LOLOL. Education is obviously another area that Calgary beats Denver.

They look very similar but I'd say Calgary because it has a few more interestingly shaped buildings instead of the standard box-shaped skyscrapers that fill the Denver skyline. Both are very nice looking cityscapes though.

Ya whutta do when ya posting at 3am. i made a mistake. At least I dont try to bull**** people like you do with the pics of downtown denver.
Also, you cant tell me that the total downtown area of Calgary is just 10X12. Thats its CBD which has only 6900 people compared to denvers 10k.

Huh? YOU are the one who said downtown Calgary is 120 city blocks, not me. 120 blocks = 10 X 12.
I'm still waiting for you to tell me how those pics I posted are "fraudulent". I ask again, are they not of downtown Denver? Because according to the link YOU POSTED, they fall well inside the limits of downtown Denver. Look at the friggin street names! I already said that you are welcome to post similar pics of downtown Calgary. My guess is that you looked for such pictures but found none because nothing like that moonscape of parking lots exists in downtown Calgary. The closest thing is the ribbon of parking alongside the train tracks.
Just give it up. Look at the poll results. Your little cowtown is getting scorched. Even your fellow Americans are mostly voting for Calgary.

Ya we have 3 million metro that for the most part drives cars. You only have a 1 million metro surrounded by ice bergs - where you gonna drive mate?
Cherry creek blows away your single (upscale store?). The end.
