Here's a shot I took of Shangri-la yesterday...



Notice the slanted concrete... Could it be parking ramps... But parking levels so deep under ground... hmmm....

Shangri-la is gonna be concrete construction, right?

Because I don't think there are any steel construction buildings in Toronto currently....

Here's shots I took yesterday of the "future of shangri-la"... sorry for the poor image quality cause it rained so i took this from a car...

This shot shows the Ritz, RBC, and CN Tower.... SAY GOODBYE TO THIS VIEW WHEN SHANGRI-LA GO'S UP!



Here's a shot I took of the CBD (with BA)... I really like how it shows how much Shangri-la is gonna stick out from University Avenue.... Shangri-la is gonna be REALLY cool to watch go up and end up in the skyline..... Gotta love it!




All photos by me: steveve

Enjoy

oh yeah... I forgot to post those pics ^^^

thanks for doing so THE BIG APPLE


Kinda ironic how you're from NY and this is a Toronto project... This seems kinda low profile compared to the projects going down in NY...

But feel free to post/inquire about anything in this thread

That is a friggen huge hole! Even with the sub levels looking like they are at least 2-3 levels closer to grade, it still looks massive...

Nice job on that last one...gives a cool perspective, though I'm thinking from that vantage point, it will look slightly taller when done...
