Taken from a friend's balcony. These buildings now completely dominate any view of the downtown from the east, in a good way I think.

At just 9 storeys, this final/ corner phase is firmly in the mid-rise category rather than high-rise, but because of the elevation it sits at up the bottom portion of the escarpment, it is becoming visible from lots of different angles around the city. The design flavouring the lower levels...

These little guys are now structurally complete. The appearance makes me suspect the final exterior will simply be this ugliness covered with a coat of paint. A couple things I'm at a loss for: -Why do some windows look bricked in already? -Why is there a basement? The renders clearly showed...

Photos from this week as the building nears completion, by Joe. The Spec reported last week that this building will use $5M in CMHC long-term, low-interest loans to rent 10-20 of the 1BR apartments for ~1400/mo, targeting nurses employed at HHS for those units. The Spec reported occupancy is...

A couple changes to make: -The SJAM property doesn't actually include the utility building, so you'll need to cut that corner of the block out of the redevelopment area. -Honour the school board's very legitimate and long-sought desire to build a new elementary school on the site to replace the...

Windows going in. Photo by Joe.

Digging continues as of this afternoon. I was reminded going past today how incredibly lacking in commercial the Durand neighbourhood is despite being Hamilton's densest neighbourhood. Can someone remind me how much retail will this have?

If you're okay with using professional photos from the architect, you can find these here: https://invizij.ca/project/royal-oak-dairy/

Some cool recent professional photos were shared by the London Community Foundation from earlier in November. There's dozens on this page but I'll share a few of the highlights here. Most are from inside the heritage War Memorial Children's Hospital building, but there's some interesting...

This photo is a month old now but shows a unique perspective of the tower in the context of the downtown skyline. West End Home Builders' Association went on a tour of Platinum and share this photo from the roof of that building on socials.

Photos from LFP today:

St. Thomas, Ontario's future tallest building celebrated its groundbreaking this week. There will be 162 1- and 2-BR purpose-built rental apartments across 14 floors of the building on the eastern periphery of St. Thomas' historic downtown. Sorry I'm not sure who the architect is...

@Edward Skira not sure if you have the confirmation you were looking for but yes, this is complete and has been occupied for at least a year I think. @Paclo not sure how helpful this is for UT database purposes or end-of-the-year feature articles, but there are lots of photos now that this is...

New Horizons appealed this in August and I was surprised to learn they already got time at the OLT in November. Things were deferred to a settlement hearing though, so the next key date to watch for is March 19, 2024. https://thespec.pressreader.com/article/281539410691909 Seems like New...

This notice was printed in today's Spec. Does this mean the City is sticking to its all-along stated intention to have the developer preserve the existing wings of the former school, sending the developer back to the drawing board for what will result in a more modest density? To the previous...
