Last night I noticed Pinnacle Centre - the complex literally across the street from Pinnacle One Yonge, had a power outage, and the parking lot (which is overground) had flashing lights.

Much darker than other towers.

Does anyone know why this happened? I know, lots of power outages due to the flooding, but this was last night?
From what I heard…. Planned outage. Possible related to cooling failure last week.
 
Drawing update of SkyTower. July 15, 2024.
Last (first) update was one month ago, on June 16. (2024)
Last update we were at 29 floors, now we are at 32. In 4 weeks, we gained 3 floors. For some reason, one floor in particular took longer than the others.
Glass cladding has reached and finished the transfer slab. Glass cladding has also reached the condo floors, with some reaching all the way up to the 16th floor. Anything below the transfer slab (12th floor and under) are hotel floors. Any floors above the transfer slab (13th floor and over) are condo floors.
The tower is now over 100 metres tall. It is similar in height with most buildings nearby.
First drawing is below, just showing how the tower looks like in its current construction progress.

This drawing shows its current height, and the height it will reach when it is finished.

This drawing shows SkyTower, and several other notable nearby buildings to really show how tall it currently is, and how tall it will be when finished. The buildings shown below are 25 The Esplanade (108m), The Westin Harbour Castle South Tower (127m), Toronto Star One Yonge (101m), and The Prestige at Pinnacle One Yonge (216m)
The drawing for Pinnacle SkyTower is from Bibi L (me), the drawings for Toronto Star One Yonge, The Westin Harbour Castle South, and Prestige at Pinnacle One Yonge are from Koops65 on SkyScraper Page. The drawing for 25 The Esplanade is also from Koops65, but I made some adjustments for its width and mechanical rooftop. The drawing for Toronto Star One Yonge is from Anthony Sun on SkyScraper Page. All of these images should be credited to the respective owners when re-used.

Well I see I've been replaced 😅
 
Well, we probably don't need two diagram updates but I had this one ready...

They finally installed a window on the 5th floor.
And got rid of two glass panels on the 8th floor…
