Garment Street Condos | 25 & 6 fl | U/C

Still working.  I think Glove Box is shut down because it is an office building, but Garment St Condos and 100 Victoria Tower 2 are residential and therefore still on the essentials list.

the site? Could you please post some? Thanks

If anyone else is looking for updates, look at the 100 Victoria thread, https://www.waterlooregionconnected.com/...10&page=31 . The photos posted there cover both buildings, but no one is posting in this thread.

When I drove by, they were still working on the glove box, the crane and workers on the roof.

Today it looked like they were getting ready for the 2nd level above the old factory

Potentially they would argue that it's a single large mixed-use project.

Looks like the first floor of the tower is almost complete

Pre-cast concrete slabs or old school method?

I couldn't get a good enough look. I think it is traditional due to all the concrete forms laid about the podium top

Yes for sure it is a fully cast in place concrete structure on this one.

I think I asked in another thread but honestly don't recall the conclusion...is pre cast or poured on site better for structural integrity etc.?

It’s an engineering tradeoff. Sufficient control over the setting process can be obtained in a factory or on a construction site; it’s really a matter of what are the costs and how certain of the outcome can one be.

Condo tower appears to be starting on its second floor now above the podium. It won't be long before Tower 2 at 100 Vic tops out an this one is chasing after.

Rapid progress indeed. Any retail or anything take up the ground floor space at One Hundred Condos yet?

There's renovations underway for a sleep clinic. I think the pedestrian traffic doesn't quite justify an actual retailer.
