Why is this project taking so long? I rarely see anyone working on this site: labour shortage probable, and maybe sharing the crew with another job site?

It's been a sitting hole for about a year now.

It's the new Murano.

It's the new Murano.

We could make a hilarious movie about it: Three Men and a Contract

And it could be filmed in Toronto too!

Well, I see the crane swinging here so it must still be under construction... but I wonder: is this one of those projects that might be halted due to the credit problems @CIBC etc?

 

[jmacmillan]

I watched the crane go up a few months ago. Already, they are at grade. Construction often seems to pick up speed from this point.

There has been a fair amount of work done on this project and has been on the parking garage that 3 floors deep. They are on level two and starting to work on level one. Should be out of the ground by Oct.

thanks Drum for all your photo updates - mostly on projects that dont get enough attention on here.

A couple of jumbo panoramas taken today. (You may have to click a second time on the pic to see the jumbo full sized version).

First one is looking east. Second one is looking north.

Their website shows a scale model and a render which appear somewhat different. I'm not sure which one is correct.

 

[Mike in TO]

The scale model was an earlier proposal that was refined by Lanterra following consultations and eventually a compromise agreement with the local ratepayers. The rendering is a more acurate depiction of what will be constructed

Bruce Kuwabara lives nearbye. And would Bruce permit a building to go up that harmed the neighbourhood? No way!

update? What exactly has been done in the past 3 weeks?

 

[Edward Skira]

Looks to me that they added a floor in that time.

Will be out of the ground in Oct.
