The crane is up now, I saw it from the Champlain Bridge yesterday.

Here's the crane.

Things are really moving here now.. Construction crews have set up a mobile unit at the abandoned gas station site on Taché/St-Joseph - looks like a great place to use as a staging area. They even went so far as to pave the lot.

Looks like the sales office has moved in next door, into the old abandoned gas station on St-Joseph/Taché.

they were loading re-bar into the pit this morning with the crane.

Website has been updated a bit..

As of yesterday, they were almost at ground level. I'll try to get some pics this weekend if I have the time.

Speaking of which, to take a page from waterloowarrior's book - MS bird's eye view of the site. A lot has changed - it's almost above grade now, and that abandoned gas station on the corner is being used for the sales office.

craptacular quality.

Well, at least there's been some major progress besides a hole in the ground...Should add some nice density to that neighbourhood though. I'm also curious, there is a fairly tall apartment building to the west of that neighbourhood, near the Champlain Bridge/University of Quebec...looks like it's at least 16 floors or taller from across the river at night. Know what building I'm talking about?

Yes, I believe that's Les jardins du Chateau. Is this the one you're talking about (in the background)?

Davis137 · #32 Posted **Nov 27, 2008, 12:53 AM**

Yes, I think that's it...

Here's a shot of it from the ORP while on the move, my appologies that it's so far out...

This building looks very tall and nice from the ORP at night, especially when it's tenants all have lights on...I wish that Aylmer and Gatineau had more buildings of this height in their skylines.

Lots of activity going on here the last couple of days.. they're at ground level with Taché now (about 2-3 floors of underground parking cut into the hillside). I'm a little surprised how close it is to Scott Street, but I think there is going to be a realignment after it's done, not sure..

harls · #34 Posted **Jan 21, 2009, 6:58 PM**

Update...

What the view will be like.. guess that's why they're charging an arm and a leg for these units.

harls · #35 Posted **Feb 23, 2009, 12:20 AM**

Looks about half done.

harls · #36 Posted **Apr 1, 2009, 6:58 PM**

This place is almost topped out now. I think there's just 2 floors to go.

You can really see the impact it has from the Garden of the Provinces and Territories, and from Laurier/Portage Bridge in Hull.

From St-François/Taché and the tasty DQ.

From UQO parking lot

rue Millar, looking west.

Cre47 · #39 Posted **May 15, 2009, 5:29 PM**

Last time I've checked last weekend, sounded like it was topped out, the floor with the highest priced units and the roof yard was up. Haven't seen any windows up just yet from the angle I was.

Davis137 · #40 Posted **May 20, 2009, 11:52 AM**

How come all of the buildings in that area are close to the same size/height and not taller to take advantage of all the views? Are there restrictions/zoning issues in this neighbourhood?
