Just remember that our city gave the OKAY for the site plan. Most of the cities in southern Ontario won't allow the terrible site plans that are allowed here.

Oh good! They actually did finally paint the concrete bases of the rounded part of the hotel.. that was bugging me for a long time lol..

Looks like the first part of the "podium" is complete:
