They are definitely tearing out the brick/stone work around the old bays...

Damn those bricks look tumorous

Having worked in the building just south of the Coach Terminal during my younger days, these pics remind me of those tumorous interiors.

More and more getting torn out. All the bus bay seating, windows, skylights, and duct work have all been torn out.

And the sidewalk is now blocked right up to Bay Street.

Feeling a bit nostalgic.

Only a few sections of stone blocks left on the east side...

They have started digging and reinforcing on the west side.

Wow, I'm really disappointed that the city chose not to get heritage designation for the dog turd on the side of the building and incorporate it into the new building. If they could get the Union Station train shed designation, I don't see why they couldn't work their magic here.

...well, because dogs tend to aim for the ground and not up on walls.

They are saving all the bricks they took off the bays.

More digging and reinforcing on the west lot...

Hey, we got an update today that caused us to split the two buildings into a Database file each, so you'll now see both appended to the tops of each of the thread pages!

We've done this essentially because we now know that Studio Gang Architects is the Design Architect for 610 Bay, and architects—Alliance is the Design Architect for 130 Elizabeth, with architects—Alliance the Architect of Record for both buildings. Splitting the buildings across two DB Files will make that much clearer, as well as making other stats clearer for those who have UT Pro access and get all the extra fields.

Anyway, we will keep the thread as one. Just wanted you all to know what is going on!
