I wish this project was taller. Definitely one of the best condo tower projects in the city.
 
There's some activity on the site today. At least one backhoe tearing something up. Looked like the parking lot but I'm not sure because I was just driving by.
 
They started clearing the debris from the west parcel on Monday (building that was torn down a few months ago), and as of Wednesday, they had started ripping up the parking lot. It looks like just about all surface materials have been cleared by today.
 
Yep. The whole site is fenced off and there is a pile-driver on site.

Well, somebody must have really screwed up on this one - delivering a pile driver instead of a shoring machine to the site...

Well not really... This "shoring machine" you speak of is actually a pile-driver.
