No, in place of the road, there's a mirror in the model, so viewers of the model could see the underside.

Any mirrored surface that vehicles and people walk on would look terrible in no time at all. It would be cool if it had up-lighting though.

Where would they put uplighting for it?

This bridge removal and replacement is being done quite very fast,
compare to the years and years it took for the City Hall Nathan Phillips Square renovation.

Completely different beasts. One is privately funded, the other is through the city. One is a bridge, the other is the entirety of City Hall property on top of a parking garage. Apples and oranges.

I think it would be really cool if they left it half completed like that.

Add a bit more on the right and at the entrance way then stop.

A couple of days ago I tooks some pictures of supports on the bottom side of the bridge to either support the streetcar wire or some sort of structure underneath probably like the one that was there before and on every other bridge and underground streetcar section in the city.

I wonder if they're assuming there will be enough foot traffic inside for there not to be an issue with birds hitting the glass. Seems like that's some pretty expansive and clear glass towards the Eaton Centre side.

New UrbanToronto member here, thought I'd finally chime in after lurking for a while!

Thought you guys might enjoy the (rather dramatic) video CF posted showing the bridge going up:
