Crew at the King Toronto site were working much later than normal today, with a major concrete pour in progress. At 4:30 there were ten concrete trucks on site, one at a mobile concrete pump, one for bucket lifts, one having just finished and being cleaned, and seven lined up along King Street waiting their turns.

And from the Wellington side, a view of the pump in action and bucket lifts underway.

The irregularity of the concrete structure is wild, the slab corners must have been a nightmare to detail.

I can't even imagine the size of that drawing set.

I can't even imagine how complicated this was to design, never mind actually building it.
