More importantly, I hope that the renovate the residential units around the top back of that building. I went into them a decade ago and they should have been condemned at the time. That's probably why the corner windows are still boarded up.

This thing has made an impact already, and it's still what...not quite halfway to top out still...

This project makes an amazing impression on the neighbourhood and street scape... and when completed it will bring some much needed foot traffic to the area.... I love it so far

Some of these photos are really great. I wouldn't mind using on our website if anyone would like to share them with us.

Interesting to note the amount of flex in the crane tower. We decided to free-stand the tower at about 250' to avoid having to tie in to the building structure and climb the crane as we went along as we did with Bella Towers.

I have quite a few from the rooftop of Empire Times where my old office was located. I'd be happy to send them along. Will PM you This structure has been really fun to watch grow since it's so tightly squeezed into it's surroundings.

Kudos on the efficient foundation pour! The site is always a hive of activity.

I think that's just distortion from the wide-angle lens...

As we own the crane and decided on the configuration, I can tell you that there is about 2m of flex in the tower. It leans toward the counterweights when not under load.

That is a cool shot, and can't wait to see what vantage points like that will look in a year or two...
