HERE WE GO
Still not convinced they've started. I've walked by a few times over the last week (granted, mornings around 8am and evenings around 4pm) and have seen no activity.

Status as of today. Blasting to start next week.
How much deeper do they need to go? Looks like two levels now.

Four levels of underground parking. The current status is about 1.5 levels so you are close!
Thanks for the info. So could be a while still before we see a crane go up. Gives Dream LeBreton a pretty significant head start to claim the number 2 spot in the tallest building ranking, unless building two towers at once is significantly slower than the Renaissance on its own.
