I live a block away and the noise from the drilling is nightmarish. I can't even imagine what it must be like for the poor bastards living in the apartments pictured above.

This is a strange one. They dug a lot, filled it all in, and then dumped off a big load of steel girders. You would think they would still be digging the foundation, not filling in what they dug out.

Living in the Spire it's also going to be a devastating loss to my view.

They've been running some noisy machinery 24/7 all weekend which I can't say I'm super happy about living at the Spire.

These assholes have been making a ton of noise today (saturday) morning since 6am. Aren't they breaking the law? Edit - just called the city and they confirmed they have received a lot of complaints about One Yonge this morning, and they are not supposed to work until 9am on saturdays. Yet they...

I can't believe they had to save the facade of that trashy old Coke building. Any old junk isn't heritage.

I meant I enjoy getting up at 8:30 and now they're gonna start making noise at 7:30, so boo) On the other hand I love this project. I should move though, since it's going to be solid contruction there for years.

I live across the street.... I guess the days of waking up at 8:30am are almost over!

I'm not sure how blocking off the relatively small eastern part of the parking lot fits in with the plans I 've seen here..

Wow six years and this is still floundering around. Dealing with city government seems torturous they need to move faster.

i wonder if they still plan on re-cladding the Star building?

The WAH it's too tall, let's keep Toronto a boring provincial backwater crowd certainly strikes often enough. Thank heavens for the OMB.

Wish we had planners who didn't have a reflexive hate for height and a love for mediocrity.

I prefer the old plan but lets see the next renders... It seems like half the job of Toronto planners is simply returning proposals and insisting they cut off a few stories.

"One Yonge Street". In a way, a gateway to Toronto and the whole province. They should build something exceptional here. A perfect place to stand out, including in height. I'd like to see the original plan developed with maybe dropping one of the smaller buildings. Could also go with dropping...

Thanks for clarifying..

Hoboy don't tell me you're one of those people who thinks every building more than 30 years old is a priceless gem...

I couldn't believe that article mentioned a possible heritage designation for the LCBO warehouse! Wow. That butt ugly building from the 50s does not deserve heritage protection. Hopefully that was just someone speculating. Otherwise will be nice to see the proposals for this site. Wonder if...

You're right, the robot can add a couple of stories if you remove entire towers.
