Back to Work Friday

Not much progress this week because of the cold. On Wednesday morning about 8:15 while I was waiting for the Bay bus a whole crew of workers were leaving the site. There must be a thing that you show for work, then have the construction heads determine that it's too cold to work then decide to send them home. During the week there seems to be a skeleton crew that takes deliveries. There also appears to be a crew that works inside the core and in the parking garage below.

Finally, a new set of columns for the colonnade have arrived

From yesterday afternoon

I've been following this project for a few months now but haven't seen the blueprint/plans. What's the plan with the lower portion of the south core?

Saturday Overtime

The forming crew worked well into the night returning the forms to the shortened south end of the core. This looks like they may be ready to continue pouring concrete so it can rise once again, hallelujah!

You can find that information on the City of Toronto Development Applications page.

After the Pour Tuesday

They poured the next level of the core yesterday, and today they've removed the forms from the south end of the shortened core. You may notice they have attached new clips for the jump form.

At least it will be impressive from the Gardiner . Also it will look great from the helicopter shots for Leafs and Raptors games.

Ha ha - can hardly blame them for not including the Gardiner. Looking at the state of that concrete it might be the view you get sooner than you think...

You're right though it will look good as you drive along the Gardiner - until the collapse...

Depending on the broadcaster. There's still a lot of stock video footage being rolled out that was filmed years ago. Every once in a while I'll see footage w/o L Tower or BA West. What buildings that are shown are a good indication of when the footage is from. I'll be looking forward to new shots with CIBC Square in the not-too-distant future.
