Don't know if Verve deserves an official thread but shoring/foundation work began today and excavation equipment (lots) is on-site.
 
Re: Verve - 422 ft. 39 floors

August 1st seems to have launched a huge number of new projects into the construction phase.
 
Re: Verve - 422 ft. 39 floors

All projects of interest deserve a thread. Will set it up tonight.
 
Re: Verve - 422 ft. 39 floors

I'll update my little list.
 
Re: Verve - 422 ft. 39 floors

I've watched them dig up & fill in this site twice this year but I think this is the real thing happening now.
 
Re: Verve - 422 ft. 39 floors

^3rd times the charm

I wonder when the 11 storey seniors apartment building will rise
 
Re: Verve - 422 ft. 39 floors

The long-term care facility is already in place on the NW corner of Wellesley and Sherbourne (although I don't think it's 11 storeys, seems to me it's about 5 or 6).

Verve will consist of the tower, at the front facing Wellesley, and a "loft" building stretching north behind the tower. The latter will have 6 storeys. I assume they will be built at the same time as they are specifying the same occupancy dates for both (Winter 2008 ) .
 
Re: Verve - 422 ft. 39 floors

the 11 storey tower will front Sherbourne inbetween the long-term care facility and 500 Sherbourne - the latter being back on the market and should start by the end of the year
 
Re: Verve - 422 ft. 39 floors

The 11s (Wellesley Central Residences at 490 Sherbourne) is a supportive housing building for frail seniors and people with HIV/AIDS, with on-site services by Woodgreen and Fife House respectively.

The project has been tendered as of April 2006.

Bog:

It's not an aA buildling - the original proposal was - but now it's done by some third rate architect with frilly hair.

Re: Verve - 422 ft. 39 floors

Frilly haired architect? Well that just ain't right.

Does the building still look the same?
 
Re: Verve - 422 ft. 39 floors

Bog:

Nope - the original building is like a stack of glass cubes with "pinches" every 10 floors or so. I have a rendering, but it might take some effort for me to find and post it.

Re: Verve - 422 ft. 39 floors
