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'I feel like things slowed down a bit after months of nearly 2 floors per week. Understandable with the weather.
After you posted that first shot of the library, I was refreshing the page every few minutes to see if you were going to post an Odenak update.
We've come a long way. I remember around 20 years ago, anything over 12 floors was inconceivable. That went up to 27 floors, creeped up to 29. Then the City approved Claridge Icon, but looked at the 40 floor proposal and told them to build 45 instead (after rejecting the 35 floors across the street at SoHo Italia not long before). Over the last 5-10 years, we've been relativly comfortable approving in the 30s, and in some rare cases 40s to 65 (if you're buddies with the Mayor).
We are so used to seeing them stopping at 27-28.
There is a project not too far from here that will be submitted to the city within the next 4-6 months (hopefully) which will be 40 storeys.
It going to be fun to see the area get built up.
We have some docs on the LeBreton thread: https://ottawa.skyrisecities.com/forum/threads/neighbourhood-lebreton-flats.40574/
