No podium, no Lightbox.

cant really comment on the pedestrian experience at the base. the only thing pedestrians are experiencing right now is hoarding....
whatever

I think the hoarding is misleading as well. It looks like there's going to be a significant canopy over the sidewalk, so it may actually be quite pleasant to walk by the Lightbox, with nice the protection overhead. The ground floor should be quite animated as well, with the restaurants, the theatre lobby, and the condo lobby all right there.
Remember also that this is compared to the massive parking lot that used to be there. I think this is quite a boost to the pedestrian experience of that strip.

Great shot!
I took a photo from that street 2 months ago and it's nice to see the difference 1 month really makes...
The Ritz cladding is visible from that view now!

LOL. That sign has been like that for over a year now. I don't think they're going to be fixing it anytime soon.

Seems intentional. The brand of humour would very much fit the "JACKASStor" variety, otherwise popular in the area.

Great shots of Festival!
Very nice contrast against the stormy sky!... Very cool how this buildings' colour changes according to the lighting (like many other buildings!)
The podium looks cool when it's greyish!
It's looking sharp
And... GINGERBREAD MAN FTW!
