Can't wait to see the rest of Bayfront completed.

That row of trees by the water needs to be completed. It'd be nice to have that boardwalk added, too.

The wonderful row of trees now goes almost as far as the Parliament Street slip - though the section east of Sherbourne Common is not open yet. No word on the boardwalk.

NEW YEAR'S DAY - January 1, 2016

So this is directly North of the Hines project that is underway? That's wonderful since it converts the park into a 'space'. Once that has happened the neighbourhood has critical mass.

 

[Razz]

Yes, immediately north of Aqualina, and flanking the east side of Sherbourne Common north. The following shows the site in context with its neighbours.

What's going on in the West bound lane of Lake Shore, LRT tracks?

Not sure - but that's Queen's Quay, not Lake Shore

FYI - work is due to restart today after de-watering,

Work on the sanitary trunk sewer from Bonnycastle Street and Queens Quay East to the sewage pumping station is temporarily halted. This work involves rebuilding the existing storm sewer from Bonnycastle to Small Street and installing twin storm forcemains from Bonnycastle to Parliament Street. Dewatering has been completed and crews will begin more extensive work upon receipt of final approvals. This work will continue into early 2016. While this work is being completed, westbound lanes on the north side of Queens Quay between Small and Bonnycastle Streets will remain closed. East-west traffic will flow along the south side of Queens Quay. Special construction notices will be circulated to local residents and businesses as new information becomes available.

The storm forcemains will extend further east to Cherry Street, but for the most part are located outside of the roadway along the east side of Parliament to Lake Shore, and within the south boulevard of Lake Shore East from Parliament to Cherry Street.

Now that final approvals from various agencies have been received, work has begun on the sanitary forcemain from the sanitary pumping station, north on Cherry Street to just north of the Lake Shore East rail corridor. This work requires the closure of a short section of the northbound lane of Cherry Street, from Lake Shore to just north of the rail corridor.
