Slowly but surely...

Too bad they need the steel beams at the top but I guess they don't want the stress on the cables alone. At least they painted them white now.

Biidaasige Park was the perfect backdrop to a video we filmed towards the end of summer, just released today:

I’ve been wondering what this “shade structure” on the East side of the park would look like. So, today I did a little digging.

It look’s like the design effort was taken on by Tawaw Architectural Collective.

A nice, and appropriate, addition to the island I think.

I snagged a shot of the progress on my walk this evening.

The concrete lumps are wrapped to guarantee the ultimate cure in this cold weather.

Perhaps cutting it a bit close to the 2025 deadline they’ve outlined on their website, but I imagine the timber will go up quick.

Great job on this! It's a beautiful song.

Reminds me that I was going to share a video I shot at another new park.

I dont wanna jinx it, but this project really has been all hits no misses so far.

That looks sweet. I pray it doesn’t get cheapened

Besides the stone-laying, there appears to be an oddly shaped, white-sheathed structure/s there.

 

[Undead]

I love how many trees they're planting here. The area's gonna be so lush down the line. Hopefully the soil volume is high.

 

[DSCToronto]

They have put in lots of white posts with orange marks on the west side of Cherry north of the Keating. Could they be poles to show how high they will be putting the 'fill' in this section??

I walked around the area today and I'm still puzzled about how people will get there from Queens Quay over the next few years with all the construction planned. Even the upcoming pedestrian bridge seems to lead to an area of the park that's still not funded or under construction?!

^They will get there the same way that they do now.

through a very narrow bike path along lake shore with construction and homeless people surrounding you? And sharing it with crazy bikers on weekends?

 

[LUVIT!]

Other than being on the Lakeshore that sounds like every bike path in the city.

Nice! I definitely wasn't expecting granite pavers for this space.
