How are the googlers going to get from the parking garage to the office building? I can't imagine they'll be expected to clamber across the train tracks? Are they getting a bridge or a tunnel or something? Maybe a zip-line?

Thanks for all the photos! I'm guessing station park investors are following this project closely

I went by this today and was noticing the foundations for those tall leaning round columns in the Moore/Breithaupt corner of the building. I had forgotten that they have to build that massive overhang supported by those columns. Based on the rendering I think that must be the next floor. That will be interesting to watch how it is done.

I seem to recall recently seeing a little Kitchener legal notice in the Record that a portion of Breithaupt St was being permanently closed between Waterloo St and Moore Ave but I can't for the life of me find it now. I wondered if this had something to do with the way that these buildings will be connected. Would this short section become a private road with public access? I could also be completely misremembering what I read.

I'll never get over the prefab faux brickwork that results in huge cracks between each panel that is now standard in construction. Do brick layers even have jobs anymore? It looks ridiculous, as if it was made out of offbrand dollarstore Lego that just doesn't sit right.
