Looking at the excavation pictures, it looks like they may be footing the building at the same time as it's neighbour.

I can't see both condo towers getting built right away, unless this development and SkyCity (if built) create some kind of critical mass that all of the sudden changes how and where a lot of Winnipeggers want to live. Though this sounds speculative or pie-in-the-sky, it's not completely out to lunch. I've certainly had a much more positive reaction from people I encounter when I talk about living downtown that what I came across when I first started talking about it and that's less than 10 years.
