It's hard to gauge for certain, but I think other than clean-up and taking out the ramp, the excavation has bottomed out. The plans are for 3 levels below the rear grade of the site.

Concrete pouring is being done from the Bloor side, which seems odd given the parking lot at the rear would be less disruptive and I would think easier.
