it must take a lot of man-hours to remove all that wrapping from the metal.

That's the small building on the triangular space between the Howe Street ramp and the Granville Bridge (see wrenegade's pic of the model below) . The construction on that one is well along now.

The construction on the space between the Granville Bridge and the Seymour ramp is still being excavated.

Thanks!
Looks like they're hiding the north side shear wall pretty well.

Excellent update.

I love how visible 1400 will be from Granville St.

I took some pics as I walked by today on my way to Kitsilano.

Nice update.

Hard to say for certain from the photos but it looks like there is approximately 21 (maybe 22) floors to go.

Yes, that's my guess, too. I'm thinking the final height could be about as high as the cranes in this shot. It's going to be quite prominent as seen from the south.

Prometheus · #**1359** Posted **Nov 28, 2017, 8:54 PM**

Yeah, I would say about 4/5 of the height of the tallest crane from that angle.

Thanks!

You can see how they are expanding the floorplate size.
Not every balcony / cube is being reduced - only every second one.
