I've heard it was specifically designed to Apple's specs, which makes it quite likely that Apple will end up in that space after all the negotiations are complete.
 
My thinking and hope too - Toronto is a major NA city, Apple does not really have a proper flagship for the city of this size (like it has in NY, SF, CH), and they value this level of drama/theater in their retail presence probably more than any other retailer.
 
Let’s please not discuss Apple here. There are retail forums for that. (For those who are new, there were hundreds of posts about Apple going here as this space was designed for them before they pulled the plug due to delays. Will Apple reassess their withdrawal. Most likely. But let’s stop with the speculation in this forum. Thanks.)

It looks to be about 240ish metres currently? Almost side by side with 1 Bloor East

I would say the elevator core (currently the highest point of the building) appears to be between 245 and 250 metres now.
