New tower will bring condo craziness to new heights
By CHRIS DOUCETTE, SUN MEDIA
In order to keep up with demand, numerous other large condo developments are being built. In the next four years alone, the number of buildings over 200 metres in height will more than double from the seven currently dotting Toronto's skyline to 17.
The writer must be using the CN Tower in their calculations. Excluding the tower, my list has 6 completed, 16 in the future:
First Canadian Place - 978 ft. 72 floors
Trump International - 925 ft. 57 floors
1 Bloor East - 912 ft. - 80 floors
Scotia Plaza - 902 ft. 68 floors
Canada Trust Tower [Brookfield Place] - 856 ft. 53 floors
Aura [RoCP] - 804 ft. 75 floors
Commerce Court West [Commerce Court] - 784 ft. 57 floors
Toronto Dominion Bank Tower [Toronto-Dominion Centre] - 731 ft. 56 floors
Bay-Adelaide Centre West Tower [Bay-Adelaide Centre] - 715 ft. 50 floors
Signature Tower [CityPlace] - 714 ft. 69 floors
Shangri-La - 704 ft. 65 floors
Four Seasons Hotel [Four Seasons] - Approx 686 ft. 55 floors
Ritz Carlton Hotel [Simcoe Place] - 684 ft. 53 floors
45 Bay Street - HEIGHT NEEDED - ~50 floors
Bay Wellington Tower [Brookfield Place] - 679 ft. 49 floors
The L Tower [Hummingbird Centre] - 673 ft. 57 floors
I'm tempted to believe the writer used my list as their source.
