Thunder Bay – And This Is Just The Underground Garage
I can’t imagine what the view is going to be once the building(s) are complete. I believe a lot of people will be surprised. Not the good kind of surprised.
Thunder Bay – Believe It Or Not
Fact. If the street is straight, then the curb and gutter on one side of the street should be a mirror image of the other. If they are not, as is the case here, and there is no reason to account for the difference, which there does not appear to be, then someone did not […]
Thunder Bay – The Hole Today
So why did it go from empty to full in one day? Well, I believe I have a good idea. Below is a photo from Nov. 15 showing the water being pumped into north end of the excavation. The water then drains out the bottom right of the photo. Through the rock fill. On Nov […]

Thunder Bay – The Fog of Truth
I am sure tourists that visited our waterfront this passed summer, are still wondering where they had to go to see this dramatic view of the Celebration Circle.
