Scraping Sky

It's been two weeks again, and it seems like all I've been writing about is this Regina Street project.

(I swear we have more on the go than this one. Although, we are pretty excited to get this one going)

I've create another panaromic image of the site, I may even include a google street view of what the site looked like before the demo started. Until then, you can have a gander at this one. Try to point out all the differences you see. My favourite is the yellow tower, that's when I know things are underway.

We're still set for an end of September, and there will be more pictures to share before then. You can follow the progress at our flickr page, as well as on twitter. The contact info for the twitter account is in the margin next to this post.

The project is a 18,000 sq ft, 17 storey student residence and will be ready for September 2012 occupency. There are nearly 500 rooms in apartment style living. There will be shared living area, but each bed with have its own bath.

We have had a few lengthy meetings about some adjustments to the window details. We have to design a way to have concrete flow to the outside of wall so as to break the connection between ICF, meeting a new fire regulation. We have a solution, because as we've said before, anything can be done with our ICF. When we have the design finialized I'll share it with you, until then I'll leave you in suspense.

Enjoy this image and I'll talk to you again soon.

Cheers,

Brad
