Demo time!

Concrete pour of level 2 from November 23: Photos from today (Dec 11): Given my convenient view, I'll probably post updates every few weeks. They're going fast

Lots of road construction happening in these next few weeks. As per the community notices, it seems like the road surfaces will be mostly finished by end of Jan. Permanent traffic lights were just installed a few days ago across all four directions. Here are some photos As well, the...

I work with MRI scanners, and some NMR scanners. There is almost always a taped outline for the residual magnetic field of 5 Gauss (0.005 Tesla) around the scanner. Electronic devices generally operate no problem outside the 5 Gauss line, which is why we have it outlined. However since NMR...

The Hulk of course! It's so funny watching it and being like "oh wait that's literally my school"

Today around 1:30pm, seen all the way from Sunnybrook Hospital

Sunset on November 16 from PMCRT: From peering in, it seems like a lot of the interior is furnished. I wonder when it will open doors

Nice photo! Question for anyone: I haven't seen sand being used as a filler below road surfaces before. Is this common?

November 11: small update, but mulch has been added to many of the needed areas sometime this last week: What's interesting is you can see some steam/hot water pipes sticking out of the ground at Med Sci. This is for the future Med Sci renovation, which will include a geothermal field...

November 10: it looks like they are encasing the surface utilities in concrete! No more digging, only backfilling now! One step closer to having the road repaved. Due to the concrete pumping truck, Eglinton is one lane at Yonge - Eglinton with police guiding traffic. Be on the look out for...

You can easily get on the pedestrian only path by driving west on Wellesley and turning right onto Hart House Circle. I've seen many Ubers do that and it's quite frustrating to see. There's no road to walkway transition over there (i.e it's continuous). Obviously construction vehicles need to...

Before this project, the lawn was in really rough shape. It has been in rough shape for probably its entire lifespan (150 years?). Hopefully given this is the "landmark" of UofT, proper lawn care will take place.

Today (oct 16) they are demolishing the old steam tunnel which was blocking the vehicle entrance to the garage since the start of this project. As well, here is a top down photos from today

October 2 2023: I just wanted to highlight one of the photos from Northern Light. If my understanding is correct, It seems they are finally going to tear down the very old steam pipe that is awkwardly situated in the path of the garage tunnel. Take a look at the current steam pipe placement...

September 25, 2023 looking south from inside sunnybrook hospital (hallway to Harlequin's cafe).

interesting, why would they be setting up tree barriers then? I've been at UofT for almost a decade now and throughout all their major building construction projects, fairly permanent tree barriers have been used (made from plywood, not the orange mesh stuff) - so I'm assuming these barriers are...

It seems major construction is starting at the proposed renovation site. There are "permanent" TPZ barriers up, along with a road closure (the through road between Sydney Smith and Lash miller was always closed to cars). Looking south at Lash Miller: Looking north west from St. George
