You would think they would be hurrying to get those top floors done before the winter months. Does anyone in Winnipeg really want to be installing windows on the 40th floor in mid-January? Really?

Tallest building in Winnipeg. Nice to see.

They're getting closer to closing it in. Steel is up to the top now. Can see that lunchbox handle thing now.

I'm not sure exactly where the hollow core ends. But it seems the longest wait was grouting of the slabs. If they're all done with the grouting. It could go rather quick once the steel is done (which seems like it's very close finally). The glazing goes on pretty quick.

Looks like they're painting signage on top of the arena...

Maybe when TSN does new skyline shots in 2026 we'll be able to see it.

Good catch. I'd completely missed that.

Makes me cry in my soup every time I see what could have been with SkyCity. Would have really changed that area and skyline.

Seeing that photo you posted in the Winnipeg Construction thread Biff really makes me want something substantial, but shorter than 300 Main built on one of those Graham lots.

Yeah, two big towers so close to each other would have delivered a critical mass of new residential that hasn't been added anywhere downtown since the 80s.

The final height steel columns are up on the south side… light grey in colour.

robertocarlos · #**6413** Posted **Sep 23, 2021, 9:57 PM**

They are now digging the basement deeper. That makes it an even taller building.

If money is being spent on a sign I wonder if there is an agreement with TSN to take new downtown drone shots for the new NHL Season?

It really does look sharp!..

Anyone know if anything is planned that surface parking lot next to that white building with world Local on it?... it's just begging for some development.

Biff · #**6420** Posted **Sep 24, 2021, 3:12 PM**

^^^It was supposed to be the SkyCity project...Winnipeg's new tallest (taller than 300 Main) - 44 Storeys, 388 Units, 574 ft. Cancelled a few years ago with a developer scandal.
