Forgive me, but remind me how many below-grade levels are there? I wish this info was included on the project page. Thx!

Does anybody know what the construction project going on in the street in front of this build is all about? It seems like it has been going on for a very long time.

Enwave. Due to end in next month or so.

The shoring machines have been carted off and some excavation is starting up.

Nooo, I love “The Arbour”. I loathe this practise of having to rename buildings every four years for branding purposes. The only name I would accept is “The Galen Weston Stolen Bread Money Treehouse” or maybe “The Right-Click-Save NFT Educational Centre”.

If we end up with some truly obnoxious rich person I propose we just call it “Wood” to underline the egotistical nature of this practise. “Hey everyone, let’s meet over at Kevin O’Leary’s Wood”

Fine- a wing, a foyer, not the whole building.

You never know, maybe someone with the last name "Arbour" will be making the donation. Then everything will be just fine!

For a moment there I got excited because I thought maybe the grown up from Stranger Things/Black Widow would get it named after him. Then I remembered his name has an H on it and he already sponsors the west end of Queens Quay.

"The So & So Arbour" wood...I mean, would suffice here. Shortened to "The Arbour". <3
