west side of former law library with exterior concrete removed

Layer by layer, the exterior concrete envelope of the law library is disappearing. The site is busy with an enormous crane lifting the envelope pieces up and away, the excavators digging to ready the site for foundational shoring (which you can see on our webcam), and a caisson driller prepped to get started.

Seeing through the law library from Philosopher's walk to Queen's Park

Most of the steel frame is visible, and you can see from Philosopher's Walk straight through to Queen's Park. These photos are beyond the sightlines of our webcam, so we'll update you regularly on what's going on in this section of the site as well.
