The document discusses the historic Parkdale streetscape in Calgary from 1913 to the end of WWII. It describes 6 historic houses on Parkdale Boulevard that represented Calgary's economic boom from 1910-1913. It provides details on the architectural styles, materials, and features of each home. It then asks what new buildings could be built that would fit into the historic context and human scale of the neighborhood. It provides examples of multi-family row housing with design elements like steep pitched roofs, open front porches, and human-scale features that could complement the historic streetscape.
