Perfect sunny day, no work done.

One person wearing a Prostar vest was seen mid-morning moving rolls of aeration mat, sealant and wooden pallets from the central courtyard to the emergency repair area. What this accomplishes in practical terms is an exercise left for the reader.

No work done today. As you can see by this photo taken early in the evening, there is clearly very little work to be done, so it’s understandable the workers would not be present.

  1. Around 9:30 a.m. I was heading out to Sherbrooke Street and observed a pickup stopping next to the C-can in front of Building 248. Someone got out of the truck and walked over to the C-can, presumably to unlock it. When I returned the C-can was locked, there were no workers onsite and no evidence of any work being done. ↩︎

Mail was delivered today after I again let in the postal worker, but with the main entrance open, deliveries, and guests will now be able to get in and out of the building as they normally would.

The work was actually completed a day earlier than anticipated, per the official Prostar notice.

There is no timeline yet on completion of the Phase 1 extension area, but I believe council has decisions to make regarding sloping and drains, which should happen soon.
