    Looks like a small pour has happened? ( 📷: @Benito)

    Welp... Is there a reason the lighter grey spandrel couldn’t have been vision glass? Seems like it’s not really covering anything. (📷: @ProjectEnd)

    Sorry, didn’t mean to imply something might be happening behind the scenes - I just meant that it looks like a really complex piece of the puzzle.

    So interesting to watch...but something tells me we’re going to be sitting on this level for quite a while. (Thanks for the great pics, as always, @Benito)

    But how will the Apple store mezzanine fit through this frame? 🤔😉 (📷: @Benito)

    I’m curious to know what source you’re using for your version. It looks great, but significantly different than the version on Menke’s sales site. (📷: Menkes)

    Hadn’t seen this before... Menkes now has a ‘virtual reality experience’ on their sales site. Appears that the balcony glass has a white frit. Presumably the pattern they show sweeping across both towers will be a combination of fritted and clear glass? Hopefully the execution will be better...

    Oh, wow, that first tower is really moving along now, hey? Definitely not mad at it so far! * * Subject to change based on tower/balcony materials

    I note one of those fan-like concrete finishing machines parked here. Are we finally about to get a slab pour? (📷: @Benito)

    Looks like balcony railings on the first three floors of the tower? This is where it will get more interesting for me - seeing stronger delineation of the ‘wave’ that sweeps across the front.

    I had been assuming that, too, but if you look at this shot by @thaivic you can see that they built the form around the base of the crane, which suggests they’re pouring this next slab with the central crane still in place.

    They’re moving the yellow crane over a few feet to the newly installed base on the podium roof, then taking down the middle one.

    Am I the only one who feels irrationally triggered whenever there’s a break in a building’s symmetry like this? (📷: @ADRM )

    Not sure there’s enough money in the world to get me to walk out on one of those when they’re 80 storeys up.

    Toronto Toronto | The One | 328.4m | 91s | Mizrahi Developments | Foster + Partners

    You can see from this @fanoftoronto shot that they haven’t extended the forms for the next floor out to the corners yet. I wonder if they’re leaving room to install the diagonal hangers next, and then will place the forms for the corners around them.

    Just me, or does this crane seem unusually tall for the start of a project?

    Agreed... I’m definitely not mad at it, but this transition on the spandrel side makes me a bit twitchy. (Photo by @Rascacielo)

    Are we possibly seeing balcony railings in this photo from @cc46 ?

    It’s quite possible I’m imagining this, but I feel like I might have read somewhere way back in this thread that that is actually the podium cladding. (Image from project database)
