They are installing de-watering pipes etcConstruction was active on this site just a few days ago. Not buzzing, but about a dozen workers moving about. Maybe just to maintain the site?

Yes, developers often do 99% of the excavation under the 'excuse' of remediation.Others in the industry may be better suited to speak to this; but off-hand, I can only think of some environmental works that can be done without a City permit (soil remediation).
Thank for sharing. They are just moving the tractors around to show activity is taking place. I have seen numerous buildings fully erected in that period.Nov 19.
Nothing too exciting here but the work status looks similar to the end of last year.

Anyone has any idea how long permit approval process takes?Yes, not speedy but in 2021 they have put in the piles and started the de-watering required prior to actual excavation.
Depends on how well they completed it. They applied 2+ years ago and issuance is 'pending' and that usually means 'soon".Anyone has any idea how long permit approval process takes?

Hi there, you can call this person.Can I contact the city to find out the status or this is something not allowed?
Hi there, you can call this person.
I called him 2 months ago, and he was very helpful. Basically he said, the Developer is trying to expedite the approvals. Everything seemed to be above board.
Please share your finding on here. Thanks
Yes, though it is probably being done as 'soil remediation' which does not require a permit.They are either racing around the track, moving dirt in circles or starting the excavation.
