Thanks for the pictures. Is this really going to top out around 174 meters as suggested in the database? It seems quite a bit shorter, even once the mech has been added. Was this tower shortened at some point? (referring to 1 York)
162.8 metres (534 feet) is what we have in the dataBase.

I guess I read it in an older post then. Is it still 35 storeys, therefore 1 storeys to go and mechanical? I don't know for some reason it feels shorter than expected to me, unless the mechanical is going to be very large.
I'm not certain if they are on 34 or not now, but yes, it's still to be a 35-storey plus mechanical building.

I'm really excited for the residential towers. They are going to be so slender and tall. I know they are just shy in height of the taller ice tower but because they are a tiny bit further south I imagine they will have just as much if not more impact from the islands.

Yeah, nice design to the balconies......the two building @ 765 ft, + 735 ft, is no way shy of ICE's 768 ft, 663 ft, and most likely will have a greater impact in our skyline

I say shy of ice's height very loosely as they are pretty much the same. The balcony patterns remind me of joy division

I know many here hate the Gardiner but that drive in from the west in a few years will be something extraordinary!!

It's quite difficult to determine if the balconies are fritted glass or some other material- is there anyone who knows the answer to this? Similar dilemma with Massey Tower (which looks to be a combo of glass and other material)
