    Start numbering floors in binary. You'd never have a 13th floor, or anything with a 4 in it. Only zeroes and 1s.

    Yeah, that transfer slab held things up for a bit. And will hopefully continue to do so.

    It's levels 62 AND 76, not 62 TO 76. I don't see an interdimensional conflict here. EDIT: beaten

    And technically, the tallest building wouldn't be occupying the actual site of the Star building, though it is part of the complex.

    I love this shot; it looks like a scene straight out of a sci-fi movie.

    Hard to believe the RBC building is almost 50 years old. I remember watching it go up as a kid.

    If they don't mind springing for a couple more letters, it could be renamed "The Ounce".

    Toronto Toronto | Concord Sky | 299m | 85s | Concord Adex | Kohn Pedersen Fox

    It'll look like a squared-off version of TD Terrace.

    Man, the Gardiner's in REALLY rough shape.

    I'm not in construction, but one reason could be because it's easier to deliver large items, supplies, and heavy equipment to a given floor when there aren't any windows in the way.

    Benito can't share coffee with the workers, but he just might be able to toss them a roll of toilet paper in an emergency

    I remember everyone joking about @Benito passing coffee over when they reached eye level. Can't believe that day is here. I also can't believe the building is only a third of its (requested) height.

    Toronto Toronto | Westin Prince Redevelopment | 103.63m | 32s | Haven | BDP Quadrangle

    There wasn't an overall Japanese theme; I was talking about the one suite they modeled after a Japanese inn, as referenced in the 1973 clipping above.

    Toronto Toronto | Forma | 308m | 84s | Great Gulf | Gehry Partners

    These are going to be amazing buildings, but I still wish they'd stuck with the 2013 cladding, even with only the two buildings. That would've been an absolute standout.
