Looks like a couple of crane tower pieces were recently delivered to site. Perhaps to extend this current crane or for a 3rd crane.

Great to see this bit of Yonge finally looking like a real street.

I assume they are adding a climbing section. I still haven’t figured out why they don’t install that special climbing section on day one? Anyone?
Does the first brace need to be attached to the tower for some unknown reason? Safety prevention?

My guess is they are converting the crane into a luffing jib

Crane pics Tuesday and Wednesday.
They started a 7am today and have just placed the cab up on the extended tower. Not sure if the will continue until dark today to complete the boom and counter weights. Fun to watch, a little more fun than watching paint dry, but takes just as long.

It's not the final crane (self climber) that will finish the building.

Looks like another case of contractors milking the city and taking their sweet time; construction on the community centre has slipped and went from an early 2023 opening now to a Summer 2023 opening:

Waste was never about City Council spending a little extra money on looking after office plants as a one Rob Ford I believe once suggested....
...rather 3rd party outfits with money taking The City's good will to the cleaners with little oversight and accountability, IMO.

A slice of someone's future render starring SkyTower at its (nearly) 345 metre proposed height.
