Further to my post in the Park Lawn GO thread: Grading work has started this morning. Given what they're doing, this thread is more appropriate for the update. They're removing soil from behind the BMO at Park Lawn and Lake Shore: They're then dumping and grading it near the site...

Construction equipment slowly appearing on site over the past couple of days. Can it be?

Some 'energizing' shots of the wetlands from the Water tower at Eau du Soleil:

I can't for the life of me figure out which project is which in this area, so I'm just going to dump all the photos in this thread. Shot from 2221 Yonge Condos on Sept. 22nd, 2023

Ah, the coveted cool looking custom copper paint, made by the fabled underground alchemists of Unicornia. I hear one has to travel on horseback for several a fortnight in order to get hold of the stuff.

I was about to ask: is that spandrel cladding supposed to have some sort of a design? Or are they randomly cladding the spandrel in whatever color they have on hand at the moment? So it is supposed to be a maple leaf, huh?.. 🤔 I would have never guessed, to be honest.

For decades, the lands around Mimico Creek were planned to be transformed into parklands with multi-use trails, not 1 but 4 bridges across the creek to create the badly-needed pedestrian connections between HBS, Mimico and Mystic Pointe. In addition, Legion Road extension was going to be built...

I managed to get a sneak peek into the Food Hall construction on Saturday, Oct 14 as part of the Heritage Toronto bus tour. Spoiler alert: this is going to be an exceptional public space. Most windows were bricked up almost to the top in order to block the sunlight back when this was the...

This project is turning into a quaint little corner of the Stonegate neighborhood. Quite fitting for the area.

I thought I'd give this thread a closure for historical sake. I only stopped by the construction site a couple of times. It sat as a hole in the ground for quite a few months before they even did anything with the site. March 17, 2022: July 12, 2023, just finished exterior and...

This is Conservatory we're talking about - the slowest developer in Toronto I'm aware of. I am surprised this building is going up at the rate that it is. Mattamy managed to construct not one but two Vita buildings next door in the time it took Conservatory to dig the hole in the ground and...

Imma hazard a guess that tank removal is deemed an equipment salvage operation rather than demolition.

Some more groundbreaking news from this site along with some signage: That last one might really shed some light on what's happening here.

... something evil is afoot...

Blink and you'll miss it.

Yeah, well, there was a pandemic, you know. I thought we were supposed to be self-isolating. I am shocked to find out that UT forum members didn't take it seriously and defiantly kept mingling with each other in this forum! 😐😐😐 But on a more serious note, heck yeah I'm still in HBS! Best...
