They are currently digging at least one more tower crane base, possibly two.

Can somebody tell me if the ugly parkade adjacent to this construction site is coming down? Because I HATE that thing. With a passion.

Eventually it will be replaced with a second accompanying tower. Not any time soon though.

I thought that the parkade for the first tower needs to be fully open before they're allowed to start demoing that fugly POS beside it

So because this one is a hybrid structure (steel + concrete) does that mean it is going to take longer than the Bow did, because it was purely steel structure?

It'll be of similar style construction to EAP, which if I recall started after The Bow and finished earlier.
