Painting is well underway!

That's one of the nicer looking sections too 🤣

Yes. There are many years left in the Gardiner rehab project.

There is a Exhibition Station open house next Saturday and I will remember to ask for more details about the bridge's removal.

I've never seen anything about that bridge staying until the new station opens. However, you're right that the temp bridge doesn't appear to be in the way of the main building. Clearly they built the angled path of the bridge for a reason. Perhaps it's just so they can do footings etc. for the...

It's in the way of the new station What's silly is that they built it in the first place. They should've just increased the width of tunnel to add the capacity. That is something they could have kept as part of the new station. But a the bridge they've installed is probably cheaper.

Excavation update:

Excavation is progressing nicely!

Excavation is progressing nicely over at Queen Station: And an update on Corktown Station excavation:

After seeing the Frankenstein-stitching looking mortar between the panels on XO condos, I'm always looking for similar cases. Even The Well got it really wrong on the south/west corner. Hoping it's not an eye-sore on this one because I'm been really looking forward to it.

They had a tent at the Roncesvalles Polish Festival last weekend.

True, but I find it quicker to just get the card out of my wallet.

Amazing! I'm assuming that the eventual tapping of your phone will work as well as cards do now, so it should do away with the pesky "bike doesn't exist" and the like errors. Also, the NFC reader will eliminate jerk's ploy of scratching off QR codes, which I figure must be an effort to make more...
