Should start shooting up now. "Like a Phoenix, rising from Arizona!"...to quote Frank Costanza🤷‍♂️

It's going to be nice watching this one go up.

Hopefully it goes quick, still amazed at how many lanes and sidewalks they have been allowed to close!

 

[UrbanWarrior]

Yeah I wonder if they realize that closing the sidewalks hurts the viability of the retail space in phase one?

wonder when the last time that corner was above ground level and what it was

Just looking at the historical maps, it appears there used to be a building there up until sometime between 1982 and 1984. It appears to have been built some time between the 1920s and '40s. The building across the street that was just demolished had also been there for a long time.

No rumours of what is going in the Tower 1 corner Commercial Retail Unit? I imagine many of the Park Central residents know a rumour or two...

It's full blown construction in there now.
