Interesting little jog there...
Based on some of the recent photos, how are they building that 13 story link? They already have the building up to the ~7th floor already. You can see the shape of the building and balcony "cut-outs" on the south facing side where there's supposed to be the link.

Exciting maybe significant not so much. Stationlands along with Ice district 2 will have the potential to transform people’s perception of downtown.In my humble opinion this is by far the most exciting project to happen to downtown in the last 20 years. Between this and Warehouse Park these two blocks are going to be completely transformed and I suspect generate lots of new investment in the area over the course of the next ten years. I am much more excited about this project than Station Lands.
I am not convinced Station Lands will have any transformative impact on downtown. As of right now I know which one of the two areas I would rather live for a variety of reasons. Time will tell I suppose.Exciting maybe significant not so much. Stationlands along with Ice district 2 will have the potential to transform people’s perception of downtown.
I still need to get a photo of it, but under the podium roof on the south end of this phase are some pretty hefty-looking load transfer structures. I'm guessing once the podium of the south building is built, the midrise will be built literally sitting on top of both.
They both will play equally in optics for the core.I am not convinced Station Lands will have any transformative impact on downtown. As of right now I know which one of the two areas I would rather live for a variety of reasons. Time will tell I suppose.
Found these photos on the architect's website that I don't think they've been posted on here before.
