this is a great project and I hope its success spurs on more infill in chinatown/gastown and the DTES.

Excavation has begun.

Changed to U/C, I believe there are recent photos that have been posted on the forum, but I can't find them to move them in here.

Only a week since I took the last picture, so not much has changed. Just thought I would share this clearer shot.

(Taken today)

What's up against the older buidling?
It looks like glass block - but is it some type of formwork?

It's metallic.

Sir Conga · #51 Posted **Apr 10, 2013, 2:58 AM**

From today.
Obviously not much has changed since my last picture; but I was able to get better shots, especially of the rear.

Some one put a bird on it.

Sir Conga · #52 Posted **Apr 19, 2013, 1:45 AM**

I just took these shots a few moments ago.

I live super close to this project, so if anyone wants any specific pictures, please don't be afraid to ask. Same goes for the Olympic Village area. I'm happy to be of service.

Thanks!

Can you take a photo of what is in the dumpster? I am curious if they have disposed of any zip ties.

red-paladin · #54 Posted **Apr 19, 2013, 5:17 PM**

O.o
The dumpster has a lock on it, and that's a very odd question.
Let's ask Sir Conga to take a picture from the inside of a muffin too....

Now that's just ridiculous.

Are the green frames void spaces for the windows (for cast-in-place concrete walls) or the walls themselves, with windows between?

Looking at the render, those appear to be the walls, with the gaps being the windows.

officedweller · #58 Posted **Apr 19, 2013, 9:58 PM**

I was thinking that but wondering why they would go up before the concrete columns, etc. (so I was thinking they may have reconfigured the window placement)

Sir Conga · #59 Posted **Apr 20, 2013, 3:27 AM**

Sorry Spork, no zip-ties.

They have free scrap wood though.

Spork · #60 Posted **Apr 20, 2013, 5:20 PM**

LOL! Was a definite joke to play up your offer, as your photos have been fantastic so far.
