Photos: Construction Begins on Sarojo Commons

Site clearing began for Sarojo Commons about a month ago and concrete foundations are now beginning to be poured. Here's a peak at the work being done on the southeast corner of Capitol Ave. and St. Clair St.

Looking south, Capitol Ave. at right.

Looking east, St. Clair St. at left.

The worst looking renderings seem to be the ones that actually get built. Depressing.

Agreed.

Here's hoping that 6 m/o rendering has been updated/improved or turns out much better when it's standing in front of us.

Wishful thinking:

There's an angled corner to the foundation at Capitol and St. Clair that doesn't seem to be reflected in the rendering. That could indicate that the plans have been tweaked.

That NW corner footing is for an outdoor plaza that was included in the approved site plan.

Thanks anon. Is that viewable anywhere online? I can't seem to find it in MDC records.
