Glad to see this space return.

I'm kind of surprised that the cladding/exterior work on the south face hasn't been completed yet. Tarps still flapping in the wind and everything.

 

[MacLac]

No doubt! Wtf?!

Someone told me that the adjacent building owner is not allowing them to go on their roof to complete any of that work.

Not sure if that is true. And if so...not sure how you resolve that. It really is a shame, looks like hell.

There's a sign on the adjacent building - maybe try contacting them.

can confirm that there is a legal fight between Theatre Network and the owner of the adjacent building.

Pretty sure that is the signage for the 2nd Floor tenant, not the building owner.

Wonder what the issue is?

 

[Dubas]

Went by 2 days ago, that final section of the roof is still unfinished.

Wonder when this is going to get finished.

Probably sometime after the owner of the adjacent building has croaked, or has struck a deal with Theatre Network due to blackmail involving a hooker, a flock of sheep, a suicidal pre-teen and a shipment of fentanyl.

A good example of how some owners can hold things up. Unreasonably.
