If City Center is any indication it might not be moved to the construction section until it's half done.

^I believe they actually renovated the building. It used to be Victoria Park School....now it's offices and such. I believe Arlene from Dragon's Den has some offices in that building.

From Guardian's Facebook page. It won't be long before this one is moved to the construction page.

The Guardian Calgary Hey guys - we are still confident with the timeline! We've begun construction and we have an incredible construction manager with a phenomenal portfolio (Jakin - http://jakin.ca/). We still aim to finish construction in 24 - 27 months. We're glad you're so excited to move in! Can't wait to see The Guardian reach to the skies!

Guardian is oh so close, and with the underground portion done it shouldn't long before a crane rolls onto site.

^^^ I agree. The last few days I have seen guys working on site, so I think things are falling into place.

On Wednesday I went past Guardian and even in the cold there were lots of workers. We should a crane and this tall baby rise soon.

Sunday afternoon calm. Workers have been on site and lots of activity.

All put together. Now the Guardian can rise. They are now just putting the counter weights in.

Chinook Arch · #39 Posted **Mar 18, 2013, 4:41 AM**

I had heard the crane was up, and figured I would find it in the Construction section.

Surrealplaces · #40 Posted **Mar 20, 2013, 8:52 PM**

I'll be going past there on Friday. I'm hoping to see some action and maybe snap a few pics.
