Yes, you are right -- it should have read 2026 (slippery fingers). It is tower only construction which could clip along at a floor every 10 days which would put total construction in the rough realm of one year.

It has to first go through the Development Approval Process (right @Avenuer?) to get an amended Development Permit (a no-brainer I am surmising) and then detailed drawings have to be submitted for a Building Permit and then construction can begin. If the current apartment structure can be leased up in record time then I could see a construction start in late 2024 (especially if some additional building credits are put in place this spring by way of City and/or Feds). I am going to go out on a limb here and predict that the right elements will fall in place before June 2024 and that the tower will begin by October 2024 and be ready for occupancy by early 2026 at the latest. I believe Qualico has a vested interest in keeping the momentum going in a positive direction with this build -- they haven't as yet protected the exposed rebar for the tower and that tells me that this project is front and centre in the executive mind-set. Remember, the site will remain a construction concern insofar as Qualico has been tasked with completing the tunnel pedway from the Library parkade to the Epcor tower (also connecting City Hall, the Art Gallery and RAM).

Yup, would need a new DP for the tower portion still.

Not including finishes or other fit up.

No. When there is no parkade to tackle, it goes quickly.

the amount of below grade work from new raft slabs to new elevator cores to banding existing columns for additional capacity to new mechanical and electrical and service spaces along with extending the structure to the east probably didn’t save much time but was simply much less visible as it took place within the existing structure without requiring excavation.
 
Understandably but there were no digging or standard procedures that normally are associated with a tower, so that aspect still allows for an easier process imo.
