The rebar work





There's going to be two tower cranes.

Quote:
Tower Cranes

The arrival and installation of the first tower crane, which will be located on the northwest corner of the construction site, takes place August 12 to 16. The crane will be visible far and wide.

Townhouses on the 540 W 65th Ave and 8120-8168 Lord St site (near Marine Gatway) has been cleared.

Is the project going ahead? Thought I heard that it was cancelled or being amended

It took me a while searching to realize the Westbank project at Broadway and Alma didn't have its own thread. Too short?

Anyway, it is now called The Raven and you can see why.

I assume this is their public art contribution? Not often you see purely ornamental elements in Vancouver architecture anymore.

Public Art Program – The Public Art Policy for Rezoned Developments requires that rezonings with a floor area of more than 9,290 sq. m. (100,000 sq. ft.) contribute public art or provide 80% cash in lieu as a condition of rezoning. Public art budgets are based on a rate of $1.98 per square foot. With 122,392 sq. ft. of floor area proposed, a public art budget of approximately $242,336 (or $193,869 at 80% cash in lieu) is anticipated. The Public Art rate is finalized at the development permit stage and is subject to Council approval of periodic adjustments to address inflation.

Are those fibre cement panels on that Broadway/Alma project. It looks enough like real stone that it actually looks pretty good.
