drive by this every day. gotta say, the 1st floor as-built (so far) looks nothing like the render. Lord knows what this is going to look like

I actually don’t know.

I think the main reason it looks different from the rendering is because the balconies stick out from the main structure. You can see the piles which will probably be the support for the balconies. I couldn’t figure out what those were for at first…

Good eye. I thought the balcony areas were set back but they're indeed stuck out. Kind of a deceiving rendering in that regard.
Will probably look a helluva lot better once the balconies begin to take shape. I hope at least.

I don't see any change from the rendering so far.

Honestly, I don't think it'll turn out that bad if it stays true to the rendering.

I like the townhomes / individual entrances on the main floor.
The rest...judgement is out until further progress made.

Didn’t realize there is going to be a big courtyard(?) space on the back part of the building from second floor up.

Wow. I'm impressed. I went back a couple pages seeing a picture from the end of October where the site was still just dirt to seeing the site now.
That's about 4-5 months. I don't have much reference for construction projects: is that a good pace generally or is it just a good pace for a winter project?

Building lego is quicker than 'traditional' forming and pouring on site.

So my question is why don't we see many more projects use this method in the Edmonton region, especially on projects that are fairly cookie cutter to begin with?
