There seems to have been no excavation here for several weeks. Another Lakeside?

I hope so. Best case scenario is a new developer takes over and starts from scratch. Both of these current developments aren't positive contributions to the area.

Is lakeside so Dead that it's killing other projects now ?
It Seems like a curse on the waterfront

No, this is ridiculous speculation, not worth anyone's time.

Here\'s a few pictures from today. Hard to say if there is any progress from Northern Light\'s posting from March 16. However one corner of the site has major shoring of walls using more and larger tubular steel angle supports than I\'ve ever seen, for whatever that\'s worth-probably not much.. Maybe this might be one of reason for slow progress?

To qualify: This project has equipment on site. Lakeside Residences doesn't have equipment on site. How are people even comparing the two?

Thanks for the note re: the rakers in particular. They are not typically used unless the land isn't appropriate for tiebacks to be secured into the ground behind the shoring walls, or if the developer cannot get agreements with abutting land owners to put tiebacks into the ground below their properties. Not sure what the case is here. The rakers are definitely more difficult to work around, so they are a last resort for shoring support.

A few from April 30, 2022:

These are only from Queen's Quay side, so not super revelatory, however, the pit is definitely getting deeper, albeit mostly on the north side.

Any new activity on this site?

 

[Domenico]

In response to FCD, yes, this is proceeding, unfortunately for our waterfront.

Today (Oct 4th):

I find they have the workers do "stuff" but honestly I don't see much change, so I'm not sure if it's legit work, or just "busy" work.
