Taken yesterday

Seems to be all done now, it looks real nice. The sign above the entrance calls it the "Richcraft Hope Centre"

In my fantasy transit plan for Ottawa, I have the Carling streetcar line split when it reaches Bronson: it continues eastwards on Glebe Avenue, just as Glebe is already a one way street, and then it loops around on O'Connor, maybe going into the park around Patterson Creek, before going back...

Got a quick pic from the train: at least one of the towers is tall enough to see from down here. They're really gonna loom once they're done.

A few weeks ago I went to Casa Di Moni in the market, they mostly advertise themselves as selling coffee and gelato, but they make sandwiches too. I had a chicken and pesto sandwich on a croissant, and it was one of, if not the best sandwich I've ever had. It was a bit messy but totally worth...

I'm fairly certain I saw a snow blower shooting up snow from the ground up onto the parking garage yesterday... I wouldn't want to be the worker who was doing that

No, the one in the first post of this thread. Granted, taking a closer look the brick was still very pale even in those renderings, but I assumed there was a filter on the renderings that made everything look paler, and that they'd be deeper in color irl.

I much prefer the red brick from the previous version over the new beige/white brick, but still a very good design.

It feels like it's visibly from just about everywhere in the downtown core now

I was skeptical (and still maybe a bit skeptical) until I read the full article which mentions that octranspo would still manage it, but it would be funded by metrolinx (if I understood correctly).

It's nice to see an outsider's perspective that's mostly positive. There's so much (valid) criticism of the otrain that it's sometimes hard to remember the good parts of it.

This feels like a design with some intention behind it, unlike the previous design.

I figured it was something like that, thanks for the insight.

They've got some kind of cladding going up on the right, don't think it's the final facade though. Looked like it might've been plywood?

Not a fan of the white rectangle outlines. Feels like a sub-par lego set. But it might work better irl than the renders.

Interesting! Good to see more Anishinaabemowin being incorporated, although hopefully projects like this do more for indigenous communities than just that.

The registry building is covered in scaffolding now, presumably for its protection.

That looks pretty nice so far. Imagine what it'll look like in a few decades once the trees have grown up.

It seems to be pretty much done, as far as I can tell Although they do seem to be building a gate to keep nosy people like me out... They have a very fancy screen at the front door Also, the section of Barrette behind it is going to be resurfaced tomorrow, so construction won't be quite...
