900 King St W Kitchener | 25 fl | U/C

@CuilTard 12-08-2024

Noticed yesterday that the back is also quite far along

Viva Towns (19-41 Mill St Kitchener) | 4 + 3fl | U/C

@tomh009 12-27-2024

The first block is now full framed (and the second block is close behind), and windows/doors are going in. Occupancy in the spring/summer?

Eureka (534 Charles St E Kitchener) | 32, 27, 15 fl | U/C

@tomh009 12-27-2024

Excavation and foundation work is progressing, although no one was working on Boxing Day!

Vertikal (471-481 King St E Kitchener) | 23 & 19 fl | U/C

@tomh009 12-27-2024

The second tower now working on floor 19, if I have my count correct. That should see it top out in April/May next year. I would expect to see occupancy in the first tower in the spring/summer as well.

And it turns out that the King/Cameron corner is getting a similar blue spandrel treatment to the Charles/Madison corner earlier.

Station Park Kitchener | 18, 28, 36, 43, 50 fl | U/C

@CP42 01-07-2025

Looks like they’re on floor 35 of 36.
I do like the wave look now that it’s more complete, but not sure why they didn’t continue it all the way up on the one side?

U of Waterloo: Math 4

@ZEBuilder Dec 13, 2024

The bridge was mostly gone around noon today, on Monday they took down what was left of the M3 bridge with the support columns being removed Wednesday, this morning all that was left was the center span of the MC/DC bridge which should be completely gone by the end of the day tomorrow. They have also built two rooms inside of the DC lobby next to both the Tim Hortons and the DC Library, I have no idea what it is for but it's somehow related to M4 since someone from Gillam was talking with the crews building the rooms.

@ZEBuilder Dec 17, 2024

The bridge was complete gone by the end of Friday. Yesterday and today they were processing the demolished materials. December 16

UWaterloo Undergraduate Residence

@ZEBuilder Dec 17, 2024

This is now above grade with some of the first floor columns being poured on the south side. The ground floor slab is completed for about a third of the building with underground plumbing/electrical work still occuring along the remainder, they are also still pouring footings on the side closest to the University Ave bridge. Yesterday they set up those first floor columns and today they were pouring some of them. December 17 courtesy of a friend

The Shanley Kitchener

The Record January 13, 2025

The first tenants of the Shanley, as the rental building will be known, could be handed their keys in February 2026, said Terrence Tyers, president of Toronto-based Shannondale Developments.
...
For more than 120 years, it was home to a four-storey building dating from 1898, originally built as a furniture factory and later used by Dominion Electrohome and subsequent companies. The abandoned, derelict building was torn down in 2020, and Shannondale Developments finished cleaning up contamination on the site in 2023.
...
The Shanley will have 172 units, in a mix of studio, one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments, and one bedroom plus den. Eighteen of the units will be affordable, Tyers said. There will be 164 parking spaces, mainly underground, and 96 bicycle stalls...

Construction work continues on the Shanley, an eight-storey purpose-built rental apartment building in Kitchener at Shanley and Duke streets.

View going south down King Street

[The Great Scaper]

^ cool photo. A lot of really tall buildings. So much snow too. We haven't had a single snow flake yet this winter. Been so warm here.

SYLK Towers 3241-3247 King St E, Kitchener

@Matt.R.WR Jan 14, 2025

Was early for a meeting in the area, so stopped by to take a couple up-close photos. This one's been topped out for a while.

From the visitor lot of the building next door.


Less zoomed in, same spot.

That would be going south down King Street West. It's a Kitchener thing.

Pointless construction update.

Thanks Koops!, I appreciate the update.

Hey Koops. I greatly appreciate the updated model and visual perspectives you provide to the various threads - Thanks!

[koops65]

Thanks!

It's not a construction update. It's a skyline model and not one that realistically showcases how an under construction tower will even look in the skyline as it's primary focus is proposals that may or may not ever be built. IMHO, this is the wrong thread for it to appear this frequently. You have a dedicated thread to post as well.

Opening this thread and being disappointed by this than an update is alot less benign having to go through these god damn pop up ads.

[koops65]

Well then, we'll have to agree to disagree on this subject.

[TorontoDrew]

In this picture taken by UrbanToronto Forum contributor thecharioteer, it looks like King Condos are almost topped out. Hopefully they can start receiving some more of the skin soon.

While whippersnapper is coming off as overly rude in this (as usual), I do agree that this thread isn't the appropriate thread for Koops massing images, as great as they are. They are genuinely not construction updates which is the intent of this thread.

I always appreciate your models Koops, but do think they should be kept to the right thread for them.

TEK Tower (30 Francis Kitchener) | 45 fl | U/C

@CuilTard 01-25-2025

Jan 25. Working on floor 37 by my count.

Block 599 (599 Strasburg Rd Kitchener) | 8 fl | Completed

@KevinL 01-26-2025

This is essentially complete; the signs say 'now renting'.

That said, the area between the building and fence will still clearly need work.

A more human-scale development in the South Hill neighbourhood of Toronto reveals its skin.
