    Crane removal day on this one. Took this pic this morning from the hotel.

    Bonjour! First day of a little week-long fall trip to Montreal and I took a walk near this site this morning. It appears workers were out installing the elevator hoist that will climb the building during construction. Seems fair to call this “under construction.”

    For a project that was supposedly going to slow down to allow sales to catch up, this one seems like it is moving at a healthy pace.... at least a floor per week, if not more. Meanwhile, if you take a look at the Square Philips Webcam and go back a few weeks, it looks like the vertical work on Phase 2 has come almost to a complete halt?

    I am not sure where the original poster is getting his info or who he spoke with. But I watch this site daily via the Solstice construction camera and the site is extremely active! They are on the verge of clearing the heritage structure’s height and they had a major concrete pour today. (2/7) Look at the timelapase on the link below and see for yourselves. https://www.devisubox.com/dv/dv.php5?pgl=Project/interface&sRef=1HRN59RD6

    If you look at the Solstice webcams for today, the crane was in use and equipment and supplies were clearly being moved onto the site. The site certainly had some activity today.

    Just curious....in segments where track and cantenary wire already exist, will those be replaced, or will they just incorporate the existing infrastructure into the system?

    Could it be the contractor is using the "Top Down" construction method? See the linked blog post below (and apologies that it is in English). Based on what I am seeing in the pictures, it does seem like they are installing/pouring the slurry wall along ther perimeter of the site. https://constructionduniya.blogspot.com/2012/02/top-down-construction.html

    Marriott has recently launched a series of brands under the "Autograph Collection" umbrella. They recently opened a new hotel here in Boston aimed at millennials called "The Envoy." (It sports a beautiful roof deck with a view of Boston's financial district) Perhaps this will be something similar? http://theenvoyhotel.com/

    I was able to visit Montreal this past weekend for my first visit since the early spring and I have to say, the view of the skyline coming over the Champlain Bridge on Friday night was stunning! This and the rest of the new buildings around the Bell Centre really make a tremendous difference!

    They are going to start construction at 48 percent in a declining market? Unless they plan to convert some of the floors to rental, this looks like a recipe for trouble.

    Well, my first visit to the city was in February. (Very cold btw). Visited again for a few days last week and had an amazing time. I'm hoping to make it a 2 or 3 times a year visit, a couple of times during hockey season with a few days in the summer mixed in.

    And to think, I thought my drive from Boston would get shaved by 20 minutes by the end of the year.....oh well.

    The video is great. At the risk of starting a debate, as much as I love both cities, I don't think Toronto can hold a candle to Montreal's physical beauty. Between the river, Mont Royal, the Laurentians to the north, the Greens to the southeast and the Adirondacks to the south, it is really one of the most beautiful settings for a city in North America. And it looks like the development pipeline in Montreal is picking up so hopefully that will only add to the city.

    Never been on the Cartier Bridge before. Perhaps my perspective is clouded by the fact that my arrival on the bridge completes a long trek through the mountains of New Hampshire and Vermont. Perhaps that adds to the "drama" of arriving.

    I think the Champlain Bridge approach may be one of the best, if not the best, entrances to any city in North America. (The Fort Pitt Tunnel entrance into Pittsburgh is pretty dramatic as well)
