I took these within the last few hours, except for the first image, captured in the morning. I used some camera setting on my phone to try and capture something decent of the site as it is now. The last building on site is on its final legs.
EDIT...here, this image refused to upload

I took this about seven hours ago, after work.
It's an intriguing sight for now...I look forward to seeing this U/C over the next few years.

General site clean up and excavation of the remaining building foundations has been going on since my last post. I took this after work today,

I took these a few hours ago. Maybe I got carried away with my subject matter haha.

Today, just after work. They've been busy at shoring since my last update.

Here's quick shot from yesterday. There was a decent amount of activity on site today.

Not sure what the smaller drilling equipment (second photo- north part of site) is doing, although the site had at least three of them at one time, so maybe that is almost complete. The first photo shows a large shoring equipment (south part of site), which I first saw about a week ago and now some excavation has started (large mound of earth can be seen) so looks like this project has started in earnest, unless Northern Light tells us the shoring permit has not been issued?

The smaller drill rigs are drilling a geothermal borefield, the building’s heating and cooling systems will be connected to the geothermal borefield beneath the building

Shoring permits are issued here now, indeed, they went out mid-August:
No foundation permit yet though;

I was wondering about this. Either way, it's a muddy, messy site as can be expected with this time of year. It's really quite massive too, so I'm curious how different this area will feel in 5 years when this, and the Capital Theatre redevelopment are complete.

Taken 12-15-2023. Site cleaned up very nicely. Only one shoring equipment left with some work to be done on southern half of a huge site. Excavation well underway on northern half of site.

Yesterday. Excavation continues with shoring walls being installed within part of, if not most of the site now.
