The hydraulic climbing unit has arrived on site. This will be the first crane jump since they bent pieces of the apex last round. I will try to get some pictures on this snowy soggy Thursday.

The climbing frame is installed. They are stacking the sections in the staging area for a jump tomorrow.

Todays crane jump as well as view of Alura from the Bow.

From this morning.

Moving the flying table forms to start 25th floor. I think this is the last floor before the crown unless they decided on the original 36 floors.

Picture is deceiving, but they need to go one more floor before they are taller than Sasso.

I believe the building is 29 floors!

TallBob · #**130** Posted **Apr 24, 2013, 5:50 AM**

Hopefully they'll miscount and we'll end up with 44!! LOL!

Moved forms to start 26th floor.
Maybe it will be 29 floors + penthouse which in the rendering is 2 floors + 3 mechanical floors.

Today they put up a bunch of scaffolding up along the walls. I assume this is for the stuccoing job. So hopefully we will see stucco soon.

Design-mind · #**135** Posted **May 7, 2013, 7:31 PM**

Moved table forms to start 27th floor.
There is no way it is a total of 29 floors. It will be 29 floors + penthouse and mechanical floors.

Design-mind · #**136** Posted **May 7, 2013, 7:34 PM**

Just checked this against the rendering and yes it is 29 floors + penthouse and mechanical floors.

So roughly 32-34 floors?

Design-mind · #**138** Posted **May 7, 2013, 9:25 PM**

The rendering shows 34 floors. 29 floors + 5 floor crown.

TallBob · #**139** Posted **May 8, 2013, 6:14 AM**

This second building should have been 42-44 floors! The overall project would look much better....Too many twins in Calgary. EAP is the way to do twins if we have to keep building them!

Now taller than Sasso.
Balcony concrete is being painted today on lower levels.
