From Forest Hill:

Now that a few of the downtown sites are moving towards beginning excavation of the access shafts, I'm curious to see how this is accomplished. Maybe it will be similar to how Avenue road was mined out? Though I'm not even sure how they got these walls of concrete poured between the piles (see...

I like that you can already start to see the station footprint/platform layout for the future station taking shape.

I like the cornice features on these, but I hope they end up getting painted the light brown as shown in the renders Edit: Reading the description it sounds like this is just a preliminary VMU before commencing production, so the final colour probably won't be added for this

I wish I saw this render sooner, so I knew not to get my hopes up somehow this is still not accurate, unless they decide to then paint all the white wavy slab edges GREY

iirc it was structural deterioration of the existing Line 1 tunnel box that needed to be addressed before underpinning could be performed. edit: I sincerely hope (considering how long it took to resolve this) that the engineering evaluation took reasonable precaution to more thoroughly assess...

It pains me to say that if you think this is bad, the North elevation feels destined to look worse

As promised..

Hard to see in these photos but the rounded corners of the white cladding is unforgiveable and an eyesore that I cannot unsee - I will take a photo when I have a chance but picture the difference between curved glass and segmented glass but with metal flashing.

Couldn't help but notice that it does look a little distracting when the sunlight hits the crown a certain way.. still a great looking building though

I can't imagine much of it will be restored at this point. I'm not sure what the exact plan is for this site, but I would imagine they still have to partially demolish this and install heritage retention structures so they can excavate inside.

This old bank building had been mostly exterior work for a while, until I saw this weekend that the whole interior is being gutted now.

not a lot of change visible from this vantage point unfortunately but what I did notice was that there seems to be a portion excavated deeper in the middle of the site. This is also visible in the top down view from @ProjectEnd s pilot friend.

This one caught the transition from cloudy to blue skies before I did!

I don't know why I had my hopes up...

I was admittedly a little confused when i first saw the darker window wall on this, but then upon checking the renderings it looks like this is purposeful and the only floor that will have this colouring - fingers crossed for the floors above

Im pretty sure you can see them installing the cladding at that section in @Johnny Au 's 7th photo above
