I can't believe how much fill there is still. If it's being taken to the Port Lands for infilling, it makes you wonder if it would have been more efficient to load it via conveyor belts, over Front Street, and into rail cars along the northernmost track of Bathurst Yard.

I'm picturing the Well as the downtown equivalent to the Bloor Street retail experience. Fast-fashion stores intermixed with higher end offerings with day-to-day services for residents taking up the less coveted and cheaper spots. As someone mentioned above, the demographics in this area can support the majority of the stores. The higher-end draws will be achieved by making the Well a destination to be seen as well as offering a specific experience for spending your money. I recall hearing that Nordstrom wasn't performing as well as they'd anticipated at the Eaton Centre because of they misinterpreted the clientele so I bet RioCan is doing their homework

What's the purpose of the deep trench?

In the architectural plans, that's called a "Ventilation Air Trench" and it will run across to the west end of the pit. The only things deeper than it will be the two Enwave tanks. I suppose that with the size of the underground garage, there are extraordinary measures needed to move fresh air into it, distributing it from the lowest level.

Wow! What a big hole love to look at these photos above . It would be awesome if someone had a video running from when they started digging the hole to where it is at this point. Amazing !
