I'm afraid the grand truss structure we've seen in early renders (see project thumbnail at top) may have potentially been VE'd to oblivion!

In the site plan from December 2024, none of the 2D elevation renderings show it. Two examples:

In the most recent TOC open house from September 2024, there are only old renderings from 2023 showing it.

Hm, funny how I saw the old queen bridge yesterday, and it looked fine, not demolished. I must be going crazy though

More up on my site

They must finished paving on 2 sides of the area at the north end off Pape as I could smell it. Not sure if it's a road, place to park for workers or storage.

I presume that pile driver is for this project?

If it's being used where it's currently positioned, it would be for the Ontario Line Portal. (where it goes underground).

Not sure if that work is bundled with the station work, but the station isn't at that end of the site.

From what I can see, there are 2 different levels of the riverdale shopping Centre... I'm wondering how they can pull that off, without disrupting local housing and traffic.
Does anyone know anything about this?
