Assuming it can be moved, that sales pavilion should be repurposed after the complex is built.

Agreed.. for some reason it is very interesting-looking to me.

It would make a fine entertainment barge, like the one that used to ply the Thames in the mid-18th century.

 

[Red October]

It should be a restaurant or something, is it big enough to be one?

indeed, looks like it would fit right in at Ontario Place...

I really wish they'd pick up the pace here!

I just walked past the site and they are doing a little excavating to put in the 'tie back rods" (or whatever they are called). The site is being de-watered and is certianly still very wet so they may be waiting for more dewatering and freezing to occur so that the earth (actually mud) is easier to remove.

Question: Did The Toronto Star building remove the "The" when they rebranded to Toronto Star? Or did the logo on the building always just say "Toronto Star"?

Give it a couple years and this project will be the talk of this town.

It has always just been "Toronto Star" according to this 1971 photo.

Well that was convenient in their decision to rebrand from "The Toronto Star" to "Toronto Star". (although their website is simply thestar.com)

Though keep in mind that they actually rebranded from the Toronto Daily Star around this time (and more or less coinciding with the Tely going under)

Thanks for the photo tour JZ!

It is unbelievable how many projects are under excavation. The next 2-3 years will be exciting.

It's also curious to see an excavation that close to the lake on infill ground. I wish them all the best in terms of avoiding leakage issues and possibly flooding. Many buildings along Queen's Quay don't have underground parking and some which do are prone to flooding, like the Loblaws garage.
