We were up there the other day taking a look and holy cow those views are top notch. Mt. Baker was lookin mint. Area has a lot of similar qualities to Lower Lonsdale I find, just better weather.

Crane boom view of the west tower while pouring what looks to be around the 36th floor.

How many floors is the podium? If it's 4 then I think you're right around 36. I assume that second crane support is around 27.

Yes 4, the first full floorplate of residential units is floor 5.

Cool to see that the wave pattern in the facade isn't just a gimmick but is actually distinct even from a distance.

Thanks. Yeah they're my pics. I've had the DJI Mini 2 for a couple of years now but haven't really taken it out that often. Giallo's work has been a bit of an inspiration lately not going to lie.

You're not too shabby yourself.

Those are really great.
Especially the last one.

Good eye.

Great update Vanman and Lexus, this one is shaping up better than expected (though my expectations we're admittedly pretty low).

Great updates, everyone.

I made it to the site today, and grabbed some photos.

Those fins work well (from the proper angle).

Agreed that these are coming along nicely.

It's unfortunate that downtown New Westminster is otherwise in a really rough shape. I took transit to work on Monday and from Skytrain one could see open drug use and drugged out people laying on three alleys between Columbia and New Westminter stations, not to mention a drugged out couple getting on our Vancouver-bound train. I was shocked to see such a decline during a quick ride through the area and it reminded me of drivinh through DTES maybe 10 years ago.

Great shots giallo!

The quality of the camera on the DJI Mini3 is so much better than the Mini2.

I think the big news here is you took transit...
