Hopefully this appeases the purists (unlikely).

This look more accurate than the previously highlighted elevation drawing

 

[Collingwoodbuildinglover]

The highlighted floor is 105. Is that’s where they are now? So they surpassed the 300m mark already?

The highlighted floor is the one that was added on their last height increase

No.

That elevation drawing is from when they added the 106th floor so its highlighted as part of the change.

I had to manually check the elevation drawings I previously downloaded of Sky Tower, which indicate what @interchange42 said in mid-September:

This tower will hit 300 metres about halfway up from the 96th floor slab to the 97th floor slab.

42

@Contra's diagram indicates they are pouring the 95th floor right now.

i wish i could say i was surprised by the afterthought unsymmetrical mechanical plopped on top

I am not sure the debate of that being the final has been settled. I guess we'll see when they reach the crown.

A lot longer after capping off, too, as the screens, if any, would probably be added after the curtain wall reaches up there.

To be honest, I wouldn't trust me anymore

I noticed yesterday that there is a New(ish) FOR LEASE sign on the lower building attached to the main (former) Toronto Star Building - on QQE side just west of Freeland St. I thought the whole complex was up for demo?? This section;

Northern Light-san has all the dirt and details. Enjoy! <3

Why does it feel like skytower will top out before 1 bloor west?

Depending on your definition, one bloor west is technically topped out. But that’s really only the columns so it feels disingenuous to say that…

But I have a strange feeling that this’ll top out before 1bw’s crown is completed.
