MONTREAL | Tour des Canadiens | 165 M / 541 FT | 50 FLOORS | U/C

La vue du site, au niveau de la rue:

[franktko]

Il n'a jamais été question dans les plans de creuser profondément - les 13 premiers étages au dessus de la rue sont des stationnements! Et puis, la station de métro est à plus de 27 mètres de profondeur (près de 90 pieds) - je ne crois même pas que le Roccabella va aller aussi creux...?

[G.S MTL]

can't wait to see this tower up and many others in the coming years

[Surrealplaces]

It won't be long before this is moved to the construction section. It's going to be exciting to watch.

[SkahHigh]

Selon des photos datant du 7 septembre sur MtlUrb, je crois qu'ils ont commencé a creuser le trou pour accueillir la base de la grue, à moins que je ne me trompe...

[jspetit]

S'ils ont l'intention de mettre la grue au coin de la rue, ça doit être le trou en bas à droite...

[MolsonExport]

so is 50 floors the final number?

[Rico Rommheim]

Yup! 167m and 50 floors.

Was I suppose to laugh?

[MolsonExport]

Deepbasementpage.com Where at least there are no ads concerning cures for toenail fungus.

[LeftCoaster]

Haha what a great site that would be...

There aren't any basement floors on TDC, as it is above a metro line. The parking mech etc... will all be above ground in the podium.

Dear God at least they don't have have that.

Last I heard though, they were also listed on the TSX and mostly subsidized by GRIM err I mean RIM, which don't sound too good right now.

Not deep enough.

I ask a simple question and I get smart a$$ remarks.

[Rico Rommheim]

You got a couple of silly, light-hearted responses from two occasional idiots.

Thanks for your answer.

If the comments were for all fun and joke, I apologize for getting too serious.

Considering that the Bell Center nearby has the ice below ground level, and at least another layer below for cold generation et al., and that the De La Montagne street is higher on De La Gauchetiere than on St-Antoine, and that the metro station is more or less on St-Antoine level, goes way down, at least 4 long escalators length...

Shouldn't the TDC be able to dig at least that far down?

Get it right: it is RIM, Not RIM

(followed by photos of nameless executives, stock charts, unabridged books on what the company has been doing over the past 20 years, etc., etc.: See any post by WaterlooInvestor )

Joel Matlin is disappointed.
