smoothing out the cement or painting it? Either way, it's a good look. Thanks for the pics. I wonder if Occupancy's still slated for March.

I don't think it's painted. At least not yet. I see the workers "plastering" some white stuff on the ceiling. I'll try to take more pictures when the "lighting" is good.

Verve and 500 Sherbourne form a nice bookend.

August 6 2009 update

 

[shelfun]

Quick update. Windows are up to floor 27. Balcony ceilings are smoothed up to floor 14. I can also see some driwall being installed on the lower floors. Heard the sales office will be moved back sometime in Sept.

Not much is happening at the loft.

Taken 13th Aug around 2pm

Took some "close shot" of man at work today...

Installing Cladding on Unit 2804 (pls correct me if I'm wrong. I based the unit number from the floorplans on the builders website)

Smoothing out balcony ceiling of unit 1608

Smoothing out balcony ceiling of unit 1610 & the one shared between units 1601 / 1602. Also the windows are up to 28th floor (WIP)

Am trying to zoom into unit 1303 with the panels for dri-wall

Some dri-wall up on the lower floor of unit 04. Notice the rectangular cut-out. I think that's where the vent will be.

Last but not least, a picture of how summer sun "hits" units 04 / 05 / 06 at about 2pm

enjoy

Turning out way, way better than the renderings except for the weird 'loft' building. Thanks for the pics.

You wouldn't say that if you say the initial rendering of the loft building (they were townhouses, originally).

i'm glad they got rid of the THs ... but i hoped the loft building was taller.


i like the bike rack ... it looks like there will be a covered glass awning installed later.

great photos drum118 ... in particular that is a very cool bike rack design, however I'm not sure if it is functional given it seems to be quite high to lift a bike that far off the ground ... just a though ~

I don't understand how the park works....is that concrete the trees are growing out from?

 

[whatever]

It's not concrete, it's a densely packed layer of some sort of greyish black sand or gravel aggregate. It's quite unusual and I'm still trying to figure out whether or not I hate it.

hmmmm...

Looks like radioactive ash after some kind of cataclysmic event hit our city...interesting! Bike rack's cool though...

I'm not sure the definition of a park can be stretch thin enough to include this. Worst of all, those trees aren't looking very healthy either.

Still think the aluminum (coloured) spandrel and beige precast look like shit but, overall, this tower is looking better as more of it comes together.
