Today more weather wrap was removed and we now see that most of the glass is installed, this is the final product.
Just the odd floors where the scaffold was setup too close to where the glass needs to be installed.
Maybe 2 weeks or less for a full view of the breezeway.

Oh, by the way, that batt of insulation did not hang on,
It broke of sometime over night Monday into Tuesday morning, we had a hard rainfall around 11pm Monday.

Is the breezeway glass the same on the north side?
From the office, the strip looks bigger on the north side, but I can't really tell.

That bigger strip is this, a planter that fits the entire width of the breezeway on the Northside.

What it looks like today, your guess is as good as mine, need to take a look.

Thanks.
Plants don't grow well on the north side of buildings.

Nice!

In the early morning light, by me this morning.

Zepfancouver · #**1608** Posted **Apr 20, 2024, 5:17 AM**

I'm trying to get a good look from officedweller's image at the south (sorry, I mean the north) breezeway, put I can't make out if glass is installed at the planters.

Yesterday and today, and we have a tree, it's not potted yet,
and it looks like the arborist sent Charlie Brown to choose a nice tree.
I'm sure it will turn out ok?

The tree RDW989 captured at street level looks much healthier than the tree that's in the breezeway now, should look good once planted and the foliage takes advantage of lots of sunlight.

Does it have flowers on it? Ornamental pear or cherry?
But they aren't all the same species in the prevoious pic (there a curly something).

No idea, but I like it. Did a little research and ' the tail lights were teardrop-shape as of 03/1957 ' according to www.porsche.com/taiwan

officedweller · #**1614** Posted **Apr 23, 2024, 10:43 PM**

Probably for someone's living room.

Zepfancouver · #**1615** Posted **Apr 23, 2024, 10:50 PM**

You buy a penthouse and a porsche is included

jollyburger · #**1616** Posted **Apr 23, 2024, 11:19 PM**

Some guy has a photo of it as his Linkedin profile banner photo..

And another one from Porsche Richmond

Not a Porsche expert but sort of leaning towards the 356A 1600 Super Speedster (1956-58)

LOL! I picture a scene like in Glass Onion:
*looks out on roof*
"Is that a motor car?"
"Oh yeah."
"Why is it on the roof?"
"Because there's nowhere to drive it with too much traffic in the city."
"Oh, of course."

Zepfancouver · #**1618** Posted **Apr 24, 2024, 12:41 AM**

I just woke up from a nap after a hard days work, checked my video from todays capture and they did bring it up to the penthouse.
2 items, the Porsche in RDW989 photo and a second item also on a platform but that one was tarped up, looked like a car under wrap.
I will post later after the Canucks game (win).

Edit: I scrubbed through the video a little slower and only the one car to the penthouse, they tarped the Porsche on the south penthouse roof then took it to the north penthouse roof.

If it's not the real deal, it could be a Vancouver-built Intermeccanica replica.

Or maybe someone is filming a music video up there?
