Reaching for the Sky: Topping Out
One of the most celebrated milestones in the construction of any building is the “topping out” ceremony. This tradition marks the moment when the highest point of the structure is reached. Tailor, a sleek 27-storey tower in North Burnaby constructed by Marcon, saw this momentous event on Friday, August 11th, as the final piece of the puzzle was placed atop its soaring structure. The topping-out ceremony not only signifies the physical completion of the building’s framework but also symbolizes the dedication and hard work of everyone involved in the project.
The Road Ahead
As Tailor stands tall in its current state, there’s still much work to be done before it becomes a fully operational and bustling hub of activity. Suite Rough-In work continues as the installation of trim and fixtures follows closely behind. The balancing and commissioning of our mechanical systems is also on the horizon, as we look forward to providing our client with an efficient and eco-friendly building.
Here are a few shots of the progress we’ve made along the way:
The construction of Tailor is a testament to human ingenuity and collaboration. From its humble beginnings as a blueprint, to its prominent place in the Brentwood skyline, every step of the journey has been an embodiment of dedication and vision. As the building moves closer to its grand opening, we grow more and more excited to showcase our dedication and craftsmanship to future homeowners.
