^^^^ I know this is the Valley Line thread, but I am worried about that six-storey apt going up. Small windows, likely to be covered in plain plastic siding, Blah.

What happened to 'No more crap!' (Stadium Yards is proof that nice looking wood frame can be built)

But I guess the above example is the most Edmonton thing you can do.
 
Looking at the paving on 87 Avenue between 159 and 165 Street, I'm thinking traffic will be moved to the south side of the street to accommodate construction on the north side of the street.

Thought this was kinda fun... what should Edmonton's big yellow gantry be called?

Surrey Langley SkyTrain: Elevated Guideway Taking Shape!

We’re deploying four launching gantries—each over 100 metres long—to begin installing the elevated guideway. This is an important step in bringing rapid transit to Surrey and Langley.

These specialized machines will lift and place more than 4,400 precast concrete segments along the alignment, forming the backbone of the elevated guideway.

Each gantry is named after the community it serves:
1️⃣ Fleetwood Flyer
2️⃣ Langley Launcher
3️⃣ Surrey Sprinter
4️⃣ Clayton Clipper

The Fleetwood Flyer will be the first to go into operation at Bakerview–166 Street Station in the coming weeks, moving west toward 152 Street Station.

As these gantries move through the corridor, residents will begin to see the elevated guideway take shape—bringing the future SkyTrain into view.
