Looks good so far. It seems like the Elbow river isn't near as bad as the Bow.

The River is now part of the Elbow River. You can't even tell there is a construction site there, other than a crane.

The River took its name a little bit too literally. I wonder if anyone will want to live there now.

Not sure what is happening at the site as I have not been by the area in a while. The website shows they are still selling units, and they have a renderings that have not been posted yet.

Thanks for posting those DM. I like this one a little more now that I've seen the new renderings. The big glass windows look promising.

Yes the new renderings make the project a whole lot more appealing. Hopefully things will get going again.

It reminds me of First (in East Village), but nicer.

Thanks Surrealplaces for the great update. I was wondering if they were back up and running. Great to see they decided to keep going.

You're welcome DM! I'm glad to see this one back again, I was worried it might be sidetracked for a long period.


A couple more photos....

That concrete sweeper looks like fun, I bet you could play bumper cars with those things

It's hard to believe this whole pit was flooded not long ago. It's good to see it back u/c.

Was hoping they were going to be at grade, but they are setting table forms at grade on West end.
