(Just ignore Aura’s extra aura, a weird reflective artefact)…

Turned out far better than I expected, though my only major concern was the shadow impact on Allan Gardens. I'm not usually one to worry about shadowing caused by highrises, unless they impact a really special public space like that.

Last shot this building up close was in May 2022 considering I bee shooting all around it as well from the distance.

They‘ve stuck to the timeline posted by @AlbertC (page ~11) pretty closely. That ‘envelope’ looks pretty clean (uncluttered design) in its completed form. Photos taken this morning.

I agree and also think that a clean envelope would be a nice way to describe this. The golden hints from those vertical lines, albeit being a bit more faint from a distance, still provide some interesting character to its overall profile.
 
So my wife and I spend our days staring out at Prime from our condo/office and have watched it go up over the last year +. Last night we noticed two red lights on the top of the building, but suddenly neither of us could decide if they were new or if they'd been there for awhile and we'd just never actually noticed them before. The number of lights-on in condo units have definitely been creeping steadily upwards over the last few months, but does anyone else know if the aviation lights are, in fact, new? (I assume that's what they are)
