I quite like this one. Will get to watch it rise now that I'm working downtown again.

precast in the middle is probably going to be darker now instead of white.

With some luck, no one will decide to paint it in twenty years like Colony Square.

TV only .41 bike spots per person?!?

trueviking · #10 Posted **Sep 12, 2022, 2:57 AM**

^ ha ha. That’s huge compared to what normally gets built. Has a nice big bike room right off the main lobby to have easy access in and out as well as visibility from the security desk. A bike maintenance area with tools, wash, and a stand is part of that room.

Any update on the lot across from this?

Nice to see the progress, thanks for the pictures!

I can't believe they are going to/can build the building with that crane.

WinCitySparky · #15 Posted **Oct 20, 2022, 9:44 PM**

That crane can have an extension added to it for higher height once it caps out, to a limit of course. Or there are bigger crawlers available that can go up to 400’, they had a couple at the Keeyask hydro dam.

Jeff · #16 Posted **Oct 20, 2022, 10:05 PM**

it seemed suspicious when they used a crawler for the spot at east village.. they got 'er done but not without a few glitches if we can all recall.

Thanks, Unbending

I noticed the other data the crawler crane had been folded up, and it looks totally absent now. I guess they're done with the parkade pre-cast

Echoes · #19 Posted **Nov 22, 2022, 7:20 PM**

Lovely building. Please send one to Saskatoon.

A newer, bigger crawler crane is on site, and the foundations are coming along.
