The podium will be a few metres taller than the ACC.

Anybody know what was on the site previously? I don't mean the parking lot, but long time before that. The excavation has uncovered some old wooden foundations/walls (?) so i was just curious.

Those would be pier foundations, the Telus site had a bunch as well.

^ Yes, the waterfront used to be located just south of Front St. When the railway was built it ran right along the waters edge.

All the land south of Front is infill. Hence the name Front Street. As in fronting the water.

Interesting, looks like the built a bridge for the excavation work. Don't think I've seen that before.

Me neither; it's really quite striking. Quite an investment they're making in that big giant hole. Have they hit bottom on the left hand side yet? Or is it just a way-station en route to an even bigger giant hole?

The bridge is interesting. Has anyone seen something like this before?
