I was in Toronto yesterday, and happened to be able to stop off at Eglinton West station, which is currently right in the middle of the Crosstown construction. Just east of the station itself is the launch shaft for the tunneling machines that are slowly working toward Yonge Street.
Here is the work site itself - note those curved concrete segments, those are tunnel-wall segments that will be making their way through to the front of the machines.
I also was lucky enough to get very close to some tunnel segments as a delivery truck was turning just as I waited at the corner!
