Isn't the east-west Harbour street extension going somewhere in this parcel of land?

 

[innsertnamehere]

Yup, directly to the north of the Toronto Star building.

^^It's more of a deliberate breaking of road continuity than an extension.

 

[Transportfan]

Fraid not. This hasn't even started

They're not putting that hoarding up for nothing.

I misunderstood it as the crew putting up the hoarding waking him up. 8:30AM is now early for me and I love it.

I meant I enjoy getting up at 8:30 and now they're gonna start making noise at 7:30, so boo) On the other hand I love this project. I should move though, since it's going to be solid contruction there for years.

I live outside of construction, it's not that bad, at least 20+ floors up. This at least has a bit of distance from Yonge street as well, at least for the first phase.

Oy vey! The clock usually has a 4-handle on it when I get out of bed

I believe a comment about "shit" getting "real" would be appropriate at this juncture...

caisson drilling imminent? (see bottom right of pic above) if that's the case, strange that they haven't applied for building permits yet.

From my side.

Noticed today that the east west trench had some half circle foam forms. It’s a shallow trench and I thought it might be for power, however, the shape baffles me. Perhaps it’s related to the soil remediation. Anyhow the other item to note is the appearance of a mobile crane, currently being assembled.

 

[wmedia]

Another angle!

 

[stjames2queenwest]

Very exciting.
