Anyone know what they're doing with the top half of that north facade? Curious why it was taken apart.

Cutting the heritage facade off in panels, shoring them up in the rear and storing them off-site until theyre ready to get reattached once the building rises. Called "panelization".

I think they are tearing down the buildings on 260 King St east not 254. If so the address in the rectangular box above this page should be changed lol!

I love how everyone sees that giant claw and just *has* to take a picture of it (yes, I contributed two!). It's quite the sight.

Are these under construction yet? Almost 3 months since the last photo update... most of the demolition was complete back then...

Walked by a few days ago, did not see much in the way of construction activity.

No Permits issued yet for shoring/foundation work. Will likely be a few weeks yet anyway.
