Barring any unforeseen circumstances, that's about what I would guess too.

^ The site has severe water issues. I haven't been by the site to see what you are describing, but it may be a mitigation method to deal with the on-site water.

The piping network which I thought to be a sump is more likely a dewatering system: there is something similar functioning at the Brickworks site right now. Water is pumped out of the soil before excavation reaches it.

I think the photo posted was just old on the post date, I've been walking by this site every day for weeks now and it has been this deep for a while.
 
The photo I posted on June 29 was a whole 3 days old at the time.

July 19th Update

I took the same shot from the south end today (as shown above), so I won't repost. Below, from the north end of the site where the bottom of the pit can no longer be seen from that vantage point. Great progress here.
