So the project is kaiboshed then?

 

[Glenco]

The only thing we know is some equipment was removed probably not needed going forward as one piece was an horizontal drill for shoring and that seems to be don

Not sure on the project status as a whole, but as I understand there have been many, many issues on the construction front. Cycling through contractors is usually not a good sign for the project - especially when there's a big hole in the ground.

What issues relating to construction?

 

[Guy 1]

Mainly the issue of their ability to retain a general contractor lol

 

[Didama]

wasn't there just the one switch?

 

[_urbanite]

It was previously stated in this thread that the developer is adding more floors, so the delays are probably more to do with this than anything. The GC has only been switched once AFAIK

 

[Didama]

Adding a bunch of floors after they switched GC isn't something that happens overnight considering redrawing plans, permitting, etc. And this site has only been silent for a few months. Not sure why we're freaking out already.

Didn't the job start with Clark then Ellis Don?

I heard that Ellis Don currently isn't on the project anymore either? so now?

Probably still stuck in the planning phases to get the DP approval. I don't think there has been anything issued for hoarding/crane yet, so likely an agreement to be signed or payment yet to be received to proceed. As I always say, development takes time and even more time when there are changes to a project compounded by a switch in contractors, perhaps multiple contractors in this case.

Excavator gone now, too. Just an empty pit.

Really? Is the signage still there?

I was told the switch to EllisDon was because they were going to build the tower five floors taller for cheaper than what Clark was contracted for. Be pretty shocking (and a huge waste of time and money) if they changed GCs again.
