This has been reported to the city. They have advised they will speak with the site manager and enforce if they view this occurring. Haven't been by since they started, so I didn't even think about the mess.

A simple wheel wash station would fix the issue, and they have plenty of room with the street closed. It hasn't been terrible, but mud and dirt on Cannon has been frequent.

This one will be visible from pretty far already by the end of summer.

Hamilton's getting a lot more interesting views with all of these highrises in the 30-35 storey range

No photo (for obvious reasons), but driving along Cannon, the columns of the building are now easily visible above the construction hoarding.

I just bicycles past on the Forge ride yesterday, and saw where they're at, the first floor is taking quite a while! Hoping to see forms for the second floor soon!

Ongoing work on first floor. Seemed busy on site.

Small grumble, but considering the project has closed Ferguson for the purpose of construction staging, I'm not sure why a flatbed truck delivering rebar parked in the bike lane yesterday morning. A pair of cyclists arrived at the obstacle at the same time and needed to both detour into the vehicle driving lane, with the oncoming guy sort of popping out unexpectedly into oncoming traffic. Everyone had enough room it wasn't a close call, but, guys, isn't this what Ferguson's closure for construction staging was supposed to avoid?

If you see this, please take photos and either send them to me, or report it to by-law. Because the lane blockage is directly attributable to the development though, the city can usually fine the developer directly and it's more than the fine for parking in the bike lane because it's about site plan control.
