Thanks for the photos HB, especially since they've been taken from a very unique vantage point.

Would that be from within the gym at the Bay Centre?

I was looking at the wrong pictures. The Yarrow it is.

I miss the Ten O' Two coffee shop.

Yes it was from the roof of the Yarrow.
I have a habit of getting onto roofs of buildings for photos with uncommon perspectives.

You can't see it in the picture above but the hole for the crane pad is just behind that tractor. It has tower crane written on the western wall there.

The crane foundation and the first segment of the mast are now in place. The crane should be up by either late this week or next week.
