Demolition just started today on 31 Roehampton, and was in the area to snap some pics.

Structurally, do those walls look like they're made of cinder blocks to anyone else?

 

[innsertnamehere]

Its only a 4 floor structure, so yes, likely made of cinderblocks.

Nice design for this project. Varacalli has some of the best designs in this city.

Fun fact: This demo is happening exactly one year after the building next door was taken down.

Can't believe it's been a full 12 months since we last saw the other building come down. Time sure flies!

No loss whatsoever.

Great news! Does this mean that the existing tunnel to Yonge-Eglinton Centre will be demolished though? I always felt that was a good piece of infrastructure to bypass the crosswalk.

In accordance with the TTC Entrance Connection Policy, the owner will also be required to pay an entrance connection fee to the TTC in the approximate amount of $525,850.40 plus applicable taxes. This fee will be required to be paid by the owner upon the opening of the new entrance which is estimated to be completed by December 2016.

This part was interesting. Didn't realize the TTC demanded such high fees.
