They literally launched sales of the second tower yesterday. Nothing is up. Sales are continuing.

Wonder if site prep will start with the release of 2nd tower.

IIRC they said Q4 2022 or Q1 2023 construction start, so a little bit longer still.

Saw them doing soil testing again the other day. Doubt too much will start until third tower. The building isn't guaranteed until it sells 80% most likely.

permit update. Shoring permits have been issued, we could start to see construction here any day now apparently.

22 137861 00

The excavation and shoring permit is for the development under building permit application # 22 133123 000 00 R3.

41 WILSON ST HAMILTON

Issued

Permits are also in for the entire building, listed as under review. This will be just under 1,000,000sf of gross floor area. I wouldn't be surprised if this becomes the largest single building permit ever issued in the City of Hamilton in terms of permit value. Interestingly, this apparently doesn't have any underground parking areas either, so it should go up quickly.

22 133123 00

The proposed development at 41 Wilson St., Hamilton, ON L8R 1C6 consists of 3 high rise towers each reaching 31 stories connected by a 8 storey podium with total gross floor area of 92,349m2 including parking (there are no below grade levels). Retail space is located on the Ground/Mezzanine level. A total of 75,219m2 and 931 units of residential space as well as a total of 1,667m2 of at grade retail space (located on the Ground & Mezzanine levels) are proposed

It will be when there is more to do in this city. We need to get the entertainment side up again once there are people down here to do stuff again - can't just drink and eat lol.

Towers that sell out in days have nothing to with homeowners. Those homeowners moving to or expanding in Hamilton will be at the VIP investor's whims stuck overpaying for junk.

Many are investors, especially in Emblem's developments, but there's quite a few people are buying to move here too.

Always a ray of sunshine.

Don't you know we're just happy to be seeing more skyscrapers being built here??

Yeah I could’ve sworn people were saying it’d start any week now. March really isn’t that far off though. Agree with the others, kindof shocked how many projects here are just pushing forward in general.

…Cue the “Entertainment Precinct”. I agree we need more things to do, but I do think there’s more going on here than elsewhere in terms of entertainment options. FirstOntario does host some decent shows once in a while, the Ticats offer a sports option most comparable cities don’t have… so we are still punching above our weight. It’s more a matter of continuing the trend and bringing new stuff. I’m sure the Entertainment precinct will provide on this front however, whatever that will be. There’s a surprisingly large amount of money tied up in that.

There is certainly enough space for a theme park. Plus being right on the water is lucrative… someone call Disney!
