Anyone have any idea what the progress is on the shed art installation? According to this, submissions closed in June. http://www.metrolinx.com/en/projectsandprograms/integratedart/docs/FINAL%20USEP%20Artist%20EOI%202018_branded_long.pdf

A friend of mine lives in the L-Tower and for whatever reason, the windows have remained clean. See for yourself, taken five minutes ago:

Funny enough I was on the UP yesterday when it went East through Union.. figured it was due to track work, and sure enough it did go back through Union on a different track.

September 23 - now being taken with an XS (hope it doesn’t mess up the animation too much).

It seems like food court construction has ramped up in the last few days. There is activity in the tenant area, can't tell if it's the tenants themselves though. I'll predict February 2019.

I was hoping someone would do this, I’ve been trying to keep the photos consistent. :)

I called this a few months ago - I expect most tech firms to eventually move downtown so they can attract the best talent.

September 7 - noticed that the north facing glass will reflect the CN Tower to people walking from Maple Leaf Square/Union Station. Looking forward to what it will look like when complete and with the architectural shift. Should also be convenient for tourists!

This was a good study done a few years ago that has so far correctly predicted extreme rainfall events in the summer. Luckily, it also predicts a pretty good picture overall for Toronto...

Happy about the tenant, not happy about the retail space on York Street being taken by a bank branch. Really could have used a nice restaurant and patio to animate this side of the street, especially with the uninviting Ice Condos frontage.

Beam me up, Scotty! And wow, that's a long beam. How will the beams be added for each floor? Will the cranes grow alongside the steel structure?

This project deserves more frequent updates and transparency than the semi-annual updates we’re getting. Contractors/developers should be required to provide public updates weekly for each week a project is overdue. Telling us in June 2018 that the contractor will probably miss the Q1 2019...

Bondfield/City of Toronto would tell you that several more people go through Union daily, so it's a much more complex project, due to people walking nearby and stuff.

Post-traumatic stump disorder, I have it too. I think we should start seeing steel soon.

August 31: Lots of changes this week.. Scotiabank roof signage is almost done, CIBC raised another 3 floors, L-Tower finally looks finished, and lots of traffic on the westbound Gardiner.. well I guess some things never change. :)

It's true!

August 28: Finally too big for my camera. Canopy beginning to be installed as well. Thanks tstormers for the heads up on the cladding.
