Talked to a guy on site today for an update and he said they're putting in a total of 82 shoring piles and then a bunch of filler piles(?). The last bunch of shoring piles are now being put in on the east side of the site along Yonge st. They will then do the filler piles and then excavation which is supossed to start next month.

Is that, dare I say it, excavation?

 

[Contra]

My goodness, a hole!

A hole in One

Zing! We need Benito's bird's-eye view to confirm.

Looks like dirt removal from shoring piles.

I will check when I get home later tonight, but I've only seen a pile of dirt without a significant hole dug out yet.

No hole yet. Here is a shot taken from the fitness room (finally ready) at 1 Bloor St E. Shows progress from

a different angle.

Great pics as always.

The snail-pace of this work is edging into insult territory though, and I'm usually accepting that business is business. It's even more unfortunate that this all this faffing about is at the foremost intersection in the country.

Yes - this is going slowly just to insult people - SMH

You're insulted? Now I've heard everything.

As far as I can tell the reason this is moving slowly is that they appear to be covering the entire site with piles more or less - this takes time. As to *why* they are covering the entire site with piles...
