Today, they are above my eye level now.

Could you imagine having two metal clad beauties in the city. 1BE would've been Forma North Or Forma would be 1BE South?
I would certainly love some more stainless steel buildings, the OG here being Commerce Court West; though it's not polished to quite as bright as shine.
 
Photos taken today, Friday (July 14). Scaffolding was completely removed from the NE corner of the mechanical level, mostly removed on the NW corner, when I was by this afternoon, so some shots showing the first "notch" in the building completely visible! And a shot of the crane side.

Correct me if I am wrong, but now they seem to be at level 35, which corresponds to 124.17m if I have the right plans. Which means 1 Bloor W has perhaps now surpassed the height of the Royal York Hotel, which held the title of Toronto's tallest building until 1931 when surpassed by Commerce Court North. (CCN, at145m, held "tallest" title until 1967.)

My latest "time-lapse" photo added to the album on Flickr showing building progress Oct 2020-July 2023:
