If it was easier to do, I would have spammed the thread with a bunch of Letterkenny GIFs.

I did appreciate it.

To be fair, there's an advantage to letting the mind's eye fill in the gap!

Right over my head.

The only thing I thought of was a female friend posting this summer about tarps off. Ie: going topless. I guess in reference to letterkenney haha

It's critical to mention that one cannot understate how good Letterkenny is.

It's one of those shows I hear talked about and see on TV. But never watched. I don't really watch a lot of TV I guess. Will check it out!

What did the redesign come in at - 24 floors?

Anyway, we've got 3 down and 20+ to go!

Winnipeg Grump · #**272** Posted **Mar 7, 2022, 4:25 PM**

Also, can someone tell me what's going on along the south wall?

^^^^Yes...They are building it under the orange tarps!

smarta$$...

See, I thought that initially and then went - 'wait, the floor plate is off then...'

prairiedog007 · #**275** Posted **Mar 7, 2022, 8:37 PM**

now that they are on common floors, and using flyer forms, this project should fly now literally and get close to 1 floor per week weather permitting

The hotel started again?

Didn't look like it today when I was looking at the site from work. it was all covered in snow and I didn't see any workers or footprints in the snow.

Someone has to be eating large $ costs on rental for a tower crane that just windmills with the wind.

bomberjet · #**278** Posted **Mar 9, 2022, 2:45 PM**

From the Global News story, seems like they'll get started later this year based on opening in 2024.
