Stocking the store with merchandise is underway. After the construction workers leave, merchandisers and delivery trucks move in and work at night.

Went by just before 9pm tonight and they were busy pouring concrete along the west wall.

St. Andrew-by-the-Lake Anglican Church, Ward's Island. 1884 - constructed on Centre Island. 1959 - cut in half and moved to Ward's Island 1979 - condemned by the city 1980 - abandoned 1984 - restored 1996 - renovated

I was wondering why they haven't started construction yet. Here's an excerpt from Councillor Wong -Tam's newsletter; At its meeting of July 12, 2016, City Council adopted Item TE17.13 approving the Zoning Amendment application for the property at 68 and 70 Charles Street East and 628, 634, 636...

Yes, they added a new section. Sorry I didn't have a camera with me.

Those rebar columns are now above ground level.

Piazza Armerina, Sicily ... Ancient mosaics circa 4th century a.d. from the Villa Romana del Casale.

Actually, considering its shape, it wouldn't take much to make that into a gigantic bottle of coke. Imagine how it would look at night lit up from the inside!

The ground level and lobby are going to look really attractive when finished. And it's really close to the renders. Hopefully they'll get a good high traffic retailer to liven things up here a bit.

^ Yup. I think it may end up being the most beautiful Shopper's in the city, inside and out.

End of November is the latest opening day estimation.

Great addition to the neighbourhood.

Yup but it's also small (12 storeys) and I guess developers can't resist. Now that they've finished developing Charles St E they're moving south down to Isabella and Gloucester. Lots of similar mid size buildings there.

Long-time Yonge St. business Aden Camera is moving to the base of Aura, north side.

According to a building owner in the neighbourhood this building is coming down and being replaced by a 50 storey plus condo. Anyone confirm?

Spirit Halloween is taking the spot at 19 Bloor West & Balmuto. Not sure if it's temporary or permanent. https://www.spirithalloween.com/#

^ Yup, it's looking increasingly better. The south side between Yonge and Church is quite pleasant to walk along. The north side still needs work where the Bay is. And it would be nice if that parking lot at the south west corner of Church and Bloor would be developed. I wouldn't even mind...

That's a great service at a flat rate of $6 especially if you order a bunch of stuff. I punched in 8 six packs of beer and 6 bottles of wine and it didn't block me. Do they have cars or just bicycle riders?

And from Urban Toronto Retail here is the listing for the H&M store at 15 Bloor West; Retail Property For Lease 15 Bloor Street West Iconic Bloor Street...
