Heck, I have no idea why this thread even exists. Isn't this a place to talk about projects and construction? ;) Wait, maybe this is a thread about a thread that thinks that a building is being built and therefore a thread must exist. Or the fact that there is a thread means that there must be...

Thanks for the pics, I can't wait to see this get above grade. It'll be really fun to watch this one go up because it'll be neat to see how many different views are changed by it.

Since the building is demolished as there been a change in planning to what to build there?

great find, thanks for that! The city has changed so much since then - wow.

^can't you just go in and find the staircase? Or were you just being nice and asking?

That photo is from May 2006. It'll look very different in May 2008, that's for sure!

Thanks for the good news Darkstar! I was wondering what was happening to that group. It's a shame we don't support our history in this city.

Anything at street level would be better than the 4 seasons though.

Wow, this is a rather lame renewal project, you'd think they add some retail in there or something beyond new glass.

^those two photos from roughly the same angle really show how much has changed. BA is going to make Bay feel super-urban.

Wow, thanks for taking the time to make this. Great work!

Dec 17: They've done almost nothing....

Dec. 17 view from Yonge:

The green roof sounds great! The bridge over the esplanade would negate a lot of the impact on pedestrian traffic that the new building would've had. Another bad thing I think is that they are removing 3 tracks, which I bet in 20 years, will be needed to accommodate increased ridership. I...

Second! I always thought that Trump's tower would make that stretch more interesting with how the plaza currently looks.
