From last Wednesday Aug 30, 2023

A comment from one of my YouTube videos "Do you take requests to go to other construction sites?"
This was the requested site, which was easy to fulfill, only a 2 minute walk.

I have a video project of the parkade build up, I will post when it's up to grade.

This afternoon, I noticed this level has a higher ceiling then the previous slabs,
my first thought was the Mosque was maybe going to be relocated here, but no, it must be at ground level ?

(Edit: I saw on the previous page, the place of worship will be located in the podium.)

What is with all the shoring? They are topping off the podium, it should now be a completed podium structure but you can't see it.

In the video, I included a madog222 image, that image https://www.flickr.com/photos/madog222/53957623748/ is not the best quality,
I was unable to download 'The owner has disabled downloading of their photos'
If this video goes viral, I will spilt Google's payment 50/50 with madog222. In legal terms I'm covering my butt

I have one viral video.

Damn! Nice! How did that happen?

Big thanks on all the updates.

Never had a big viral hit, algorithm hates my channel, but this one is nearing 59,000 (no money as I am constantly just below view hours for being monetized)

And this one hasn't even cracked 5000 views...

Anything that isn't directly from a film /TV show is all my own photography / videos.

I feel your pain.
Uploaded it on July 01 2017, 2 years later, on Apr 11, 2019 I changed the thumbnail and then went viral. To this day, it's still my top viewed video monthly.
The smart phone is transforming us into a more and more (someone named Gillian Rose, called it) ‘Ocularcentric’ society.

I have thought about changing my thumbnails.

YouTube has become so frustration, there is little to no organic growth anymore. Just gaming algorithms.

My first video there also sat at about 3 thousand views for two year, then suddenly for no reason this August is had 54 thousand views in two weeks before nearly stopping dead again. It now trickles about 20 views a day.

I honestly hate the internet these days.

Nice! That corner staircase is pretty cool.
There will be an Arabic style mesh.

Thanks! C3YVR for the heads up.
I promised a YouTuber Al-Karim Walli @TheCanadianClassics "Update please!" that I would capture an update today "I will, waiting for the first glass to go in, I'll check on it tomorrow", but it was way to rainy today. I'll check it out tommorow afternoon.
