July 6th update:

- Second floor in progress
- Something with a lot of re-bar

- Second floor continues

- Something requiring lots of re-bar

The rectangular pit with all that re-bar looks like it is probably the elevator pad for the South tower. You can see the placement for those elevators in the top left corner of this plan from the Hullmark website. The smaller square pit with the re-bar will most likely be for the Tower crane, yet to be installed.

how many underground parking levels will there be?

 

[marcus_a_j]

^ 4 levels I think.

The construction ramp in the northeast corner is pretty much gone. Looks like only a little bit left to excavate then I assume the southeast ramp will be removed. Looks like a third crane will be put up soon in the northwest quadrant. They have recently dug out the base

Yeah, unless you have a view that looks between the two buildings. But otherwise you lose the privacy on the balcony.

well, the view isn't amazing to begin with, facing the former plaza below, with numerous empty parking spaces on either side of Yonge-street.... Yonge/Sheppard definitely isn't the prettiest intersection in NYCC, i think it might just be more lively when Hullmark is built...

Doesn't seem like much is changing on the site.
Work continues on the north side of the dig.

Anyone with any brains knew what they were buying into, that intersection was destine for intensification.

Hopefully though the two buildings will cut down the noise from the Yonge and Sheppard intersection. I find that there is a lot of motorcycle and firetruck noise. The view is 'OK', not really that great to begin with.
