St. Paul's Hospital & Health Campus | U/C

Seems more orange than yellow personally.. I think the left panels are more close to the final colour than the right one.

i don't mind the yellow as it will distinguish the two buildings a fair bit.

FYI the cladding is up on the Skybridge.

As a school bus yellow-appreciating observer, the window mockup looks great to me. Definitely a welcome change from the aggressively multicoloured/pixilated institutional facade design of the last 10-15 years.

Agreed. ... and not blue gray.

Sudbury's decommissioned general hospital, before its demolition, was covered in what has been described as Canada's largest mural. If the "colourful" institutional facade trend had possessed the courage to deliver something like this on a new-built, I would have been ecstatic. Cowards.

There's now a 2-storey gap in the facade of the new St Paul's where the panels have been removed, presumably in advance of the skybridge being installed to the research building

Some newer (minus the facade gap) drone footage of the site from one of the building engineers

The roads look to be done too.

That footage is a little old, looks to be from late May.

Here's the road at the front from today:

Thanks.
I guess those bike paths will lead to/from Strathcona Park?

For now, they stop at the playing fields at Trillium Park. (It looks like there are other bike lanes around the perimeter of the site, including parallel with Prior)

The City likes to impose bike lanes on new construction while not providing any of the connecting infrastructure when it reaches their own land, at least not in any reasonable time frame.
