Well - given a conservative timeline of one floor poured per week - it won't top out until late August.

Getting it completed by the end of 2015 would be extremely optimistic.

I think that once the next floor plate is poured One Bloor East will be the same height as The Bay tower.

^ the glass they r using on the rest of the building doesn't seem cheap so why would they use cheap one on the balcony?

This is not exactly an indictment, but all of the curtainwall/window wall on this project is sourced from China ..

China makes products of every quality level now.

Umm... Yeah. I don't know why people equate "made in China" with being cheap. There are countless high quality products that are made in China, you just have to be willing to pay the price for if. If you're not willing to pay for quality products, then you're going to get crap.

Yeah, I definitely understand that. Hence why I said it isn't an indictment.

To be fair, though, the manufacturer/installer (Jangho) doesn't have the greatest reputation here in Toronto. It does appear to look pretty good, though.

Really? You really don't know why people say that?

Because the quality is typically low. Not to say that China is incapable of making high quality products.
