At 8PM tonight there was a pump-crete truck chugging away. Workers said they would be pumping until around 10PM tonight. Sorry but no pictures.
 
They are working on the first floor with the ceiling partially done.

nice to see this one FINALLY above grade....
 
Hope you enjoyed the ROM, jks. Thanks for the pics! (Boy, those Gray Line sightseeing buses couldn't look tackier.)

Yup, it was great. I actually didn't have much time, but the minerals were amazing. The Diamonds were ok too, I just got bored after a while, they were starting to be repetitive. they did have the third biggest diamond ever recorded. Back on topic now! (Of course One Bedford moves so slowly that no one will really care if there is a completely random discussion =P)
 
Yup, that mineral gallery has stuff in it that you can barely believe was created naturally, and yup, One Bedford really does feel like the slowest project ever. With the Royal Conservatory taking forever as well (to get Koerner Hall done at least) just across the street, it seems like this area of Bloor has some space-time discontinuum attached to it.

March 27 as seen from OISE, that brutal structure. Pic is low quality from a phone.

This building is taking forever...Suites went on sale in Fall of 2005!

It does seem slow but remember excavation only began in July of 2006.
London on the Esplanade and Murano seemed to take forever too, but both were well worth the wait.
