3 at West Don Crossing, 2 at Don Valley Crossing

Have i miscounted, are 2 of those mobiles? or are there 5 tower cranes for this project up and running? Wow, the ontario line is really keeping the GTHA crane count from plummeting.

 

[kotsy]

On closer inspection, 1 of the 3 at the West Don Crossing is a mobile crane and 1 of the 2 at the Don Valley Crossing is mobile.

There's also 3 tower cranes at Exhibition , 1 at King-Bathurst, 1 at Corktown, 2 Moss Park + 2 gantry cranes at Osgoode and 2 gantry cranes at Queen.

as suggested by Kotsy, pictures already posted in the main OL thread of the tree removal on the West Don Crossing, where the elevated guideway will transition from the west side of Don Mills RD over the Don Valley.

Thanks for the pics. Can't wait to see the pylons reaching full height. Maybe by summer?

I finally felt like running home, and grabbed some shots. I'm no drone, but these are interesting with the fog especially with the sun right behind the crane.

There's a green one, and a blue one, another green one, and a yellow one, and they're all made out of ticky-tacky and they all look just the same.

I've been watching the series for the first time. About halfway through Season 6 right now.
