It is moving fast but it has been 1 floor per week for this build. It's been 17 weeks since the first level of the 'tower portion'

Unfortunately I do not have any updates on that project. I own a consulting company who works with multiple developers (high-rise projects) offering project management services from pre-construction to completion. We do not use or post our tenders on any sites as we invite our preferred...

Wrong again. I should be able to share it by Friday.

That’s not correct at all. I cannot name the architect at this point but you guys can put the math together and figure it out. If you don’t, it will be public shortly.

Here is a sneak peak of the 275 Rideau project (LCBO King Edward & Rideau) It is a major improvement from the first design. This is being proposed at 28 floors at 85m in height, L-Shaped tower with commercial space fronting Rideau St.

I can dig some up. Once I do, I will share. Designer for the hotel portion interior is Design Agency.

No, there are no open areas in this one. They wanted to maximize the second level board/meeting rooms for this location. This Renaissance will actually be the first in their new design for this brand. High end finishes, lots of millwork and fancy ceilings in the lobby and restaurant areas...

The 36 floor tower is slated to top out by March the latest...depending on winter conditions though.

Not much anyone could do since Mr. Flemming refused multiple offers to sell that property. It may happen eventually, but not anytime soon. Good news is that there are very preliminary discussions on a potential developer team getting together to put together a proposal for "L" shaped lot 368...

Move-ins for tower A have been ongoing for a while. Tower B will start move-ins within the next few weeks.

Second floor forming has started. This one will take approximately two and a half weeks to complete and then the tower will start rising rapidly.

Since the balcony glass topic is the 'current thing' on these forums, I am happy to share that the balcony glass at Renaissance will be bypassing the balcony slab edge with a shaded frit section of glass. It will be a step up from the Releve's tin covering the balcony slab edges. Maybe it will...
