Progress:
So the second day I was happy to find that they were breaking ground! I felt a little bit akward driving up and taking a picture (esp when there were workers on site) that I went up and introduced myself. Pretty much to say "Hey, i'm not a creeper i'm just taking a picture a day so I can combine them all into a video".

| They're breaking ground! |
So as I said before we are buying in Summerside but let me explain more of what Summerside is. So Brookfield Residentials' (formerly Carma Developers) plan for this community is to have a Cape Cod architecture theme. It was started in 2000 and they estimate it will be done by 2018 and will be home to over 3,000 families (that makes it sound really big but it doesn't seem like it). They get master builders such as Jayman to design houses and offer homes from starter, move up, estate, townhouse, semi detached and apartment condominiums. My favourite part of this community is that is has a very substantial pathway system and has a 32 acre freshwater lake that lets you swim, kayak, fish (catch and release) and so much more. They plan to have many schools surrounding the community as well as some recreational centres. Near the lake is tennis courts and of course a playground for the kids. It seems to be a very social community as there is a page just for the people of summerside that you buy/sell things, they have farmers markets, and "movie in the park" nights.
The location of Summerside is at the edge of Edmonton but is close to both the Anthony Henday and Calgary Trail/Gateway Boulevard so it's easy to get to destinations around Edmonton without too much difficulty. Plus side is if you're career makes it so that you need to frequent the airport, it's not that far away. For a bigger city the airport is indeed far away so living at the edge with a close drive to the highway makes it so much easier whether you drive, taxi, or are picking up a friend.
