Accessibility for the raised walkway (elevator)? I have no idea, but just a guess.

Edit: never mind… doesn’t make sense. Just noticed the enclosed portion doesn’t include the upper level?

I asked a construction worker on site today. It is a stairwell to access the underground parking.

Did Qualico drain the water from those fountains permanently? Can't recall that I've seen them at all this year...

Yeah they did, I have a buddy that works in that building and homeless were using it as a washroom, the people working in the building complained and they shut it down.

Stopped on a ride home from the office last week to check out the elevated walkway. It's a nice addition to the property, and a good place for photos of the city. I even managed to grab a peek-a-boo shot of the Hotel Macdonald.

Are those posts with the round discs intended for leaning, sitting, or for holding drinks? I was dismayed to see that some bolts were overtightened which split the wood in places along the walkway, but overall, it's really taking shape and looking nice.

I walked through here yesterday and it really is quite nice. Made me feel like I was in a different city. Didn’t notice any sketch people, but I did see someone taking their dog out. Also noticed a basketball net which is cool. Curious to see what fills the retail

How are the Sketch folk staying out I wonder?

Private public spaces are the future unless governments come to their senses regarding public safety.

I walked by here this morning and it's a beautiful spot. I did see some building security walking around, so that might be a slight deterrent.

When I took my video there were a couple security patrolling the area. I hope the retail area gets filled sooner than later, maybe a nice bistro, etc...

Our governments have seemed fairly incompetent about this over the last few years, so private public spaces it will likely then be.

I'm ok with that, if Anne Stevenson wants to continue to bury her head in the sand about the just plain stupid state of downtown then privatized parks it is.
