At 9000 square meters (about 97,000 square feet) this is a fairly substantial building. I didn't see it in the compilation thread (but I might have missed it). Here is a rendering from the link posted by hoser111.

PS: This isn't the 12 storey building proposed for 249 Windmill Road. (it is the excavation mentioned by Jstaleness and from the link posted by hoser111)

The mobile tower crane has been up since at least Thurs. I had no idea it was a project of that size going in.

I did see an excavator on site a couple of weeks back so this is already under construction.

I wonder if this building will take full advantage of the waterfront lot by building patios or some type of harbour interface for residents?

Can’t see it here, but the train tracks are in the foreground, between the building & the water…so unlikely 🙂

I can't believe how close the Tower Crane base is to the water. If Hurricane Juan was to hit today, it would be bye bye base.
