That could explain all the accidents. Skyscraper rubbernecking.

Going past this, CIBC Square and other developments further west is like a development/skyscraper geek's gauntlet

Yeah, love it
...a bit off topic but i hope this crazy thought by city council doesn't slow all this construction down

7,000 jobs under threat as Toronto moves to restrict critical concrete work for high-rise construction
The City of Toronto is poised to restrict concrete work for the construction of high-rise buildings through amendments to the noise bylaw in a move that will threaten more than 7,000 jobs and cripple the industry's ability to deliver much needed housing supply to Torontonians.

Advertising inside the pit. See the next picture.
NW corner crane and base prep. almost done. Probably another pour next Saturday; long weekend?

Another photo day with the drone crew. Nice back drop, clear blue sky. Where are their pictures?

Tower core and columns vs podium column thickness exposed.

No accidents today.

They have place gravel on top of the base that will see a concrete floor pour on top of it.

 

[mburrrrr]

They pour ~10’ of concrete for the base and then add a few more for the drains.

New construction camera, permanent or for the next big pour. Hopefully they get better weather this time for a good video.

Jesus, look at the size of those columns.

 

[mburrrrr]

Another big pour today. I’m not sure what time they started? Before 3am
4 pump lines and 3 direct pour from my view.

Another concrete pour and Harbour St is closed.

 

[mburrrrr]

Saturday.
3 direct pours every 5-6 minutes per truck must have been limited in their distribution. A minimum of 6 hours maybe up to12 hours of non stop trucks.

3:30 pm 5 pumped lines a lot slower

Still pumping 3 lines at 6 pm over 15 hours later

Sunday - Phase 1 breaking grade.

The foundation is set.
Another crane later this week?

 

[mburrrrr]

Running out of numbers. Crane “G” is up.
