Or is it that you're looking up the louvre openings? Instead of the broad side of the fins?

I saw them putting that up the other day. Although, I haven't seen a sign indicating a closing date for the parking lot, and I didn't expect to see one given they just started marketing the building (with units at a pretty ridiculous $/sf). Don't know why they would sever the lot and lose out on potential parking income when it's unlikely they'll sell enough units to commence construction for a while longer.

Finally gonna get the list all over 200 meters again.

Fingers crossed!!

This would be a typical move for Pinnacle although I don't see any permits posted on Toronto.ca

Interesting news regarding One Yonge...we'll see what happens.

Yes, they built the last Pinnacle tower on spec on Bay Street by the lake.

Well it's going to be a long time before it's under construction

When you say long time? How long do you mean, as they are "currently" fencing off the construction site? We are not talking about years here, that is for sure.

Well excavation will take awhile

And is that the construction site they are fencing off? I thought it would've been the whole parking lot

Parking will be phased

GeneralLea · #**4794** Posted **Mar 14, 2018, 1:08 PM**

This'll have a crane by mid or fall 2019....if the SPA and other permits have been sent out. Maybe earlier, but I have my doubts.

Missed it. That looks it. Hoarding makes sense now. Must be ready to go. Afterall, there's 50 parking spots being taken out of service.

Rebar cages for caissons at The One this morning

caltrane74 · #**4797** Posted **Mar 14, 2018, 2:29 PM**

.....

WhipperSnapper · #**4798** Posted **Mar 14, 2018, 2:49 PM**

I was expecting them to dig the pit and than put them in. I guess the site is too small to have the equipment in the bottom of the pit?

SSP Global ... concrete has been poured!

FrankieFlowerpot · #**4799** Posted **Mar 14, 2018, 3:01 PM**

My friend who works at GFL told me the pit is going to be a mess

Rakers to 2 sides and two big king piles in the centre of the pit as well.

WhipperSnapper · #**4800** Posted **Mar 14, 2018, 3:52 PM**

Are those cages for the shoring? They look really big. Or are they going to bedrock with them in light of the raking?
