The action on 49 Edmands Road continues! The 40 ton crane in the top photo is hoisting a roof truss onto the northeast wing.
The southeast wing of the building will soon take shape, as marked by the slab on grade in the forefront of the bottom photo. Beyond the future South Courtyard, the first floor wall panels are being installed in the northwest wing. Meanwhile, the northeast wing is now up to four floors and the new roof trusses are hidden behind the elevator shaft. What progress!!
