This is an odd-looking construction site. At the moment there’s a triangular section rising in the middle for one of the towers.

Really looking forward to seeing this one go up. Will make a huge difference in the area.
 
I think that triangular structure might be to enclose and protect the Convention Centre loading dock entrance.

 
This will be an interesting dig.
But wouldn't it be easier to move the house for the dig and foundation parts?
Seems the building sits on a slab and could have saved a lot of time and energy.

They moved it a few meters north to its final spot a few months ago. Moving it anywhere else would have been expensive and risk damaging the structure.

With the tarps off, yep, looks like it’s a protected structure for the loading dock. And then they build around it.

Hard to tell from this angle but they’ve dug pretty deep under the registry building now.
