They seem to be moving now. I noticed some people working on the upper part of the building this morning (orange tarps going up).

I haven't been there in a while, can someone take a few photos of where the project is right now?

harls · #23 Posted **Dec 11, 2007, 3:29 PM**

I might go by there on my lunch break today.

Jamaican-Phoenix · #24 Posted **Dec 11, 2007, 4:20 PM**

That'd be awesome. Thanks, harls.

Man, I should ask for a decent camera for Christmas so that I can take photos myself since I live within walking distance of 90% of current projects...

This is as close as I got... didn't feel like walking down the hill

Damn vignetting..

I like the colour of glass they chose for this building. I've been working down the street and, in person, it's starting to grow on me. I think someday (50 years) it will fit in with the surrounding neighbourhood but, right now, it stands out like a sore thumb.

The glass looks like prison bars...

Probably in a couple years or so...

They are putting glass on the third level of the tower portion now.

Yesterday I was in Hintonburg - you can see the tower right in the center of the street from there (Wellington / Carruthers area). Too bad I didn't have my camera with me.

Good to finally see some progress...it seemed as though they were stalled for quite some time.

No;
They only employed one person for the job.

..the black trim on the podium glass is looking good

harls · #35 Posted **Apr 9, 2008, 6:02 PM**

Just because.

Aylmer · #36 Posted **Apr 10, 2008, 12:17 AM**

Not half bad...

This building is starting to grow on me

harls · #38 Posted **Apr 24, 2008, 4:35 PM**

It's going to look impressive this summer at Bluesfest

AuxTown · #39 Posted **Apr 24, 2008, 5:31 PM**

Judging by the renderings of phase 2, that yellow brick colour better start to grow on everybody.

As for me, I never thought it was terrible, needs a neighbourhood around it though.

...I think the most impressive part is the new lanscaping around Pooley's bridge and the stone terrace down to the Tailrace. It will definitely add some life to the area. Is there any retail/cafe planned in Phase I?
