I live on this street so will be able to provide endless construction pictures if it goes ahead.....hopefully not another Emerald.

Maybe the rest of the Oliver residents in this forum would care to join me in sending in more comments!

Avonmore residents too? !!

As long as we are not getting sloppy-Joe Icon/Langham...

Was talking to a guy from Ledcor yesterday and he mentioned this is one of their projects that is supposed to begin this year (among a few other towers in/around DT???). I have no idea if anyone has heard anything similar to corroborate that.

The podium is sweet on this one

I can’t believe how long it took for Oliver/grandin to start getting some love. From 2004 until 2015 we got Illuminadas, Uptown, serenity, and pearl, and lessard. Then since 2015 there’s already Beth shalom, The Oliver Residences, Maclaren, Hendrix, Grandin City, CX, CNIB, and potentially this one. Between the location, layout of the neighbourhood, and the amount of lots still available, this area could easily be one of Canada’s best high density residential neighbourhoods... eventually. And I know it’s unrealistic, but I wish we could get an office tower or two in this neighbourhood as well.

I noticed a few weeks back there were shipping containers within the dealership building on the North part of this site (this would have been late January, no approved permit sign up at that point).

Unrelated general storage or maybe for the project construction?

Unfortunate that they are not starting with the tower fronting Jasper Ave, but excited about this one nonetheless

Indeed, Phase I is the southern (shorter) tower.

Always gotta start with the smaller one of course.

Well at least they are moving forward with the project. I don't mind that the shorter building gets built first. Hopefully that way that building will get filled much quicker and then we can see the other taller buildings get built afterwards. As usual I prefer seeing more buildings get built and more empty lots disappear.

The drawings that went out for tender in January were similar to the existing renderings. I'm excited to see this finally happening.

Building permit was submitted at the beginning of March for the underground parkade for the south tower.
