No pic today but the entire site of Telus Sky is now a couple of feet down, the western side of the site is almost two floors down though. This thing is moving quick!

Lots of concrete still coming out. I guess they'll be a while at digging this one.

I hope the rest of the dig goes fast, love to see this rise in the heart of the core at the same time as Brookfield Place and 707 5th.
