    Kitchener Toronto | Stride on Franklin | ?m | 11s | Zehr | ABA

    The crane for this went up yesterday. Well... most of it. Photo from last night: Featuring Elevate Condos in the background. Edit from the next day: the rest of the crane is complete. Wasn't able to get photo evidence unfortunately... apologies.

    Cambridge Toronto | Cambridge Recreation Complex | ?m | 2s | City of Cambridge | MJMA

    Here's a few more angles from Dec. 24. Coming along nicely. The big parking lot along the future East Boundary Road (McQueen Shaver Blvd linking up to the bottom end of Townline Rd) in the site plan is going to be on the left side of this photo, with the road a bit further left and out of...

    Cambridge Toronto | 581-595 Langs Drive | 27.7m | 7s | Region of Waterloo | Arcadis

    You beat me to it. I took photos on Dec. 24 then went across the pond before posting them. So here's more because why not:

    Waterloo Toronto | The Barrel Yards (Phases 3 & 4) | 118.07m | 32s | Auburn | Turner Fleischer

    Not surprised at the overall design, given the precedent set by the earlier towers. But considering they'd be the tallest in the project (and city, if completed today), I think some extra care or pizzazz would be warranted. Even if the towers stay the same, that podium facade on the Phase 4...

    Cambridge Toronto | 32-38 Grand Avenue South | 88m | 29s | Kiah Group | Neo Architecture

    This one was appealed to the OLT after the City failed to make a decision in time. 'Twas not popular at the public meeting - with both the public and Council. Staff report recommended refusal as well, so should be an interesting battle. This is also the first development to come forward...

    Cambridge Toronto | Preston Springs Redevelopment | 89.7m | 26s | Haastown | Arch. Unfolded

    This one was approved at the OLT the other day. A couple changes. Building heights reduced from 22, 24, and 26 storeys to 18, 20, and 22 storeys. Unit count reduced from 752 to 635. New site plan: Sorry for the sub-par photo quality. Hoping to go digging for more of the revised/ final/...

    Kitchener Toronto | The Metz | 127.8m | 38s | Auburn | Turner Fleischer

    Thought this was an interesting perspective. Cranes for the site as seen from Borden Station. I suspect some of the taller buildings will rise a bit higher than the cranes, but it gives a sense of the size and scale this project will have from a distance. Also note the 50 Borden Ave site and...

    Kitchener Toronto | 900 King Street West | 79.73m | 25s | Cantiro | srm Architects

    Here's an update for this one. Getting very close to completion. From the southwest, between Grand River Hospital and the KWCI campus. A bit closer, on GRH property. From the other side of King St @ Grand River Hospital entrance. Main entrance. King St garage entrance. There's...

    More from Block Line Station. October 17, 2025.

    Kitchener Station Park | 184.95m | 50s | VanMar Developments | Kirkor

    Not to drag this back from the depths just to rain on the parade, but I found this photo of City Hall under construction (likely 1991/1992) and, lo and behold, a luffing jib tower crane! Not entirely sure why my mind immediately recalled this one post from almost two years ago, but alas here...

    Cambridge Toronto | 255 King Street West | 61.6m | 16s | Auburn | Edge Architects

    Happened to be in Preston this evening, so stopped and got some photos of the site. This one turned out a bit blurry, but wanted this vantage point for future reference: From the edge of the site along King: From the north edge of the site looking south just up Fountain, King St seen on...

    Barrie Toronto | 35 Sperling Drive | 93m | 30s | Intelligent City | Smart Density

    Not sure if it will include renderings, but there will be a public update about this one in the next few weeks. That's all I can say publicly :)

    Welland Toronto | Maple Park | 33m | 8s | 1000154427 Ontario Inc | ACK

    Honestly, it's not bad for that region. The relative lack of surface parking (72 spaces by my count) is impressive and very much welcomed by me. I feel like similar sites in the region (such as St Catherines) would do 228 units in a single 18-20 storey slab tower with all surface parking. I...

    Cambridge Toronto | 32-38 Grand Avenue South | 88m | 29s | Kiah Group | Neo Architecture

    32, 36 & 38 Grand Avenue South: a 28-storey mixed-use residential and commercial building designed by NEO Architects for Grand Ave. Developments (Cambridge) LP on the southwest corner of Grand Ave S and Hood St (just north of St Andrews St) on the west side of downtown Galt in Cambridge. 328...

    Cambridge Toronto | 255 King Street West | 61.6m | 16s | Auburn | Edge Architects

    This one is back on the docket. Just to remove the holding provision. Additionally, this is Auburn Developments. Not sure if they were operating as North Development Corp or what, but figured I'd make a note of it here. Unit count is now 590, database shows 579. From west to east, towers are...
