Photo update today. Elevator pits have been chiseled out of the bedrock now. Not quite sure what the massive slab they just poured to the north of it is though.

Aerial shot of Toronto. Peep the bottom of the photo to grasp how large the construction site of The Well truly is.

Where does all that dirt go?

Where does all that dirt go?

Not sure about THIS exact dirt but in general terms some to dumps (usually) north of the City and some to the Leslie Spit.

Just saw a possibly interesting new Ontario Regulation on use of 'excess soil" See https://www.ebr.gov.on.ca/ERS-WEB-E...ontent.do?noticeId=MTMyMzMw&statusId=MjAwOTA2 &language=en

Apparently the portlands project is using "local clean soil", so it wouldn't surprise me if some of it is going there. But generally, it goes all over the place.

The spit doesn't accept soil like this, the only fill used there today is dredged dirt from the harbour that the portlands corporation collects in maintaining the harbour.

i've always thought that old dirt and or any goes to the cement factories to make or mix concrete..

Concrete made from dirt will not work too well!

Concrete made from dirt will not work too well!

Most concrete these days can be comprised of up to 25% sand and 50% aggregate - while the sand is "engineered" in the sense of particle size and quality, "dirt" does make good concrete.
