oh, dear.

the name of the new establishment that is going in there is "Da Factory." I can't imagine it's a place I would want to visit given the name.

My thoughts exactly. The building permit with that name on it was in the window for a very long time with no signs of progress, though, and now it seems to be gone.

Perhaps Da Factory couldn't secure da funding?

Perhaps it'll look like Da Monsta, in which case it won't be bad at all.

Though it won't work for the purpose for which it was built.

ahem *Da* purpose ahem

 

[AndreaPalladio]

Quite right.

Da jackhammers were pounding away this morning....

 

[Urban Shocker]

Ta-Da!

Lots of steam was pouring out of the corner this afternoon. Wonder if they hit something underground.

It made it very atmospheric on the way to and from the office yesterday. One could almost imagine oneself as Anna Karenina.

 

[purespirits]

Yesterday was kind of surreal lots of steam as I was walking to the office, but then again lots of strange things seem to occur on that corner... and lets not start with the stench... I really hope they revamp that corner build another context building! that would be great Spire II

Richmond and Victoria: why isn't there a West-Coast inspired Bing Thom/Cheng/Erickson condo on this site?

 

[AndreaPalladio]

Because the owner doesn't wish to build one, perchance?

 

[urbandreamer]

^A little joke about the Richmond and Victoria cities....

 

[AndreaPalladio]

VERY little

Drilling?

looks like they were drilling there the other day.
not sure if its just maintenance/refilling or there may be some potential development plans.
