    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...

    Correction! The remainder of the P1 level slab will be poured this week. The ground floor will take some time due to five different slab elevations and beams. Just a heads up before the ‘it’s taking forever’ comments start.

    That glass is not Balcony glass but the plan was to have frosted glass for the balconies which were to cover the face of the balcony slabs however, that was over a year ago that the tender went our for that. Things change so just be patient and expect the worst! I believe all of the band wagon...

    Yes, the Sky is coming soon however, with a bit of disappointment. Too bad they couldn't have screened in the generator and cooling tower here. Such an eyesore on a nice build for Ottawa standards.

    That is the main intent at this point in time however, other options are being looked at.

    The other two are the U of O building across the street (former Quality Inn) and the corner of Rideau & Friel.

    This is actually a self climbing Luffing Crane. The climbing frame will be added at the first crane raise stage. It is the first for Ottawa for this model of Luffer. Typically Luffing cranes are within the building footprint and have a raising system the within the crane tower itself.

    I was too late to say don't waste your time showing the SKY but squares are more accurate then what we all were hoping for. The heights are changing, it's being phased, it's being dumbed down like everyone should have expected.

    397 Kent Street Mosque (Church Conversion)

    This would have been a much more beneficial space for a homeless warming center/shelter but of course funding would not be easy to secure for the purchase and operations. It's tiresome to have "progressive councillors" including Troster, to act as advocates for the less fortunate but never...

    Bingo! Nice to see that some people on this forum know what they are talking about. Blasting will continue for the final level of parking this week which is the P4 level and should be completed by Friday. That will be followed by rock removal for two weeks and then micro blasting will...

    That glass wall area terrace is an amenity space for residents and hotel guests. That 6th floor area with the glass wall is the pool & gym.

    It was an internal process. Azure had the options to an open sale but Brigil was very patient and very understanding of the situation Azure was in. another kudos to a good developer in the region.
