^^^ Wow, steel high-rise building, that's not something you see anymore in Toronto. Crazy how much of the floor space is taken up by the elevator shafts.

It looks exactly the same to me as the method being used to build Bay-Adelaide at the current time.

This photo and more of the building plus (I think) a current shot was on UT (this thread?) about a year ago. Here's a shot from Google Streetview.This image of 36 King Street East from 1963 was posted on r/toronto, if anybody wants to go get a "now" picture?

Not to worry, it's more scary that I remembered seeing it. I guess my memory has not (quite) gone yet. :->With the exact picture I used, whoops.
Then: December 1954. Yonge St. looking N from N of Asquith Ave. I love the sign in the restaurant window (right side of photo) ... '35c for fish and chips.'
Now. Toronto Central Library on the right.
Here's another version - 1963/2013
