Thank you kotsy. That was a striking photo that you posted the other day from a not often seen vantage point. Welcome to UT.

You're very welcome. It's nice to give back after lurking on here to see photos for months

Today I went on a tour of the marvellous L Tower run by the Canadian chapter of the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat.
Over two hours, we visited the 1st, 4th, 56th, and 57th floors of the 58 storey tower.
I was shocked to learn that a Toronto born entrepreneur has purchased the ENTIRE TOP TWO FLOORS of the building to turn into his single 18,000 square foot super-penthouse, complete with 10 meter double height library/living room space with an indoor Koi pond.
Inside the duplex penthouse.
This is a giant turntable inside the protruding section at the base which allow truck taking away garbage to be rotated with out having to drive through a roundabout.
On the fourth floor inside a large 1-bedroom unit. Looking out at the facet on the south-west corner of the tower.

I wonder if the guy in the last picture is inspecting how poorly finished that column is. Very sloppy work.

What, a cement column is sloppy, if you want perfect buy it and clad it with copper, marble, or whatever you want

I don't think it's unreasonable to expect a smooth column without seeing seams in the concrete. Also, what are all those black specs especially near the top? Air pockets in the concrete or?
So yeah, sloppy work especially given that these slanted columns are architectural features.

Love that column in the 1 bedroom unit above. Nice view too for such a low floor.

Geez, you are a defensive one aren't you. The guy didn't say he wants a column clad in gold, he was commenting on the forming of the column and the seams.
