And this week, down it comes (the site smells a bit of mouldiness). I am happy to see these buildings go! Taken Monday.

Will eventually be connected by 2 sky-bridges to St. Mike's across the street.

Very nice but couldn't they have managed something a bit better with this side? I feel almost sad for this little building.

I imagine the St. Mike's people have calculated that that building is basically a goner; soon to be assimilated into an ever-expanding hospital/research complex.

I think we lucked out. The glass is much sharper looking then something like this - The Gordon & Leslie Diamond Healthcare Centre.
