There was a big site with workers on it today even, so I think construction will continue on until legislated to shut down.

Know it all.

Which if we follow suit with Ontario and Quebec will be tomorrow. I am sure that they can all work from home and/or Stan has the money to keep paying them anyways.

If I had the dough this one would be on my list. I would love to look out over the Inner Harbour while having my morning coffee.

Oh yeah, this one is a gem.

I used to love getting up at 6AM in the summer and sitting on the balcony looking out over the harbour. That is one thing I certainly miss from my time living downtown.

Let's here it for the early birds!!

Nothing is better than to be outside sitting at the ocean side as the sun lifts above the horizon. It gives you a natural high.

Big news today: We are thrilled to share that Customs House has reached yet another milestone moment! The famous I-beam supports that have been a visual fixture in the Inner Harbour for the last 21 months are being removed! With the I-beams now fully removed on Courtney Street, and soon-to-be removed on Wharf Street, the original detail of the stone walls really starts to stand out. Once they've all been deconstructed, restoration of the original 1914 stonework will begin!
