For those of you who have been near the site, how big does the ground level actually feel? Because every time I see those pillar, I can't help but wonder if I'd end up having to duck around while I'm in there.

It feels both huge and small in person. The footprint of the tower seems smaller but that cavernous lobby space is really imposing when you see it.

Almost gone, over the course of the morning today.

I imagine there's still quite of bit of that crane tower below grade they have to fish out. Which I suspect will be a slow, careful process.

Today. The King is (almost) dead. Long live the Queen!

Am I the only one to find it weird that it is gone almost?

I already miss it.

I can ask them to cancel the building and reinstall the crane if you like

Who cares about cranes? I want to see this baby rise and I don't care which crane is responsible for doing so

Nah, just tell them to put it in where the yellow one is now

For engineering experts here.......are those 2 steel supports supposed to be joined?

And our ongoing tracking of the disappearance of 1 Bloor East, from Balmuto:

Minus 1 crane.

Minor nitpick: the west podium should be wider. It is not as wide as the full tower width but it definitely spans more than the distance between the two western columns. You can see it better in the view from the east #9395.

I'm drawing right on top of the actual plans so I don't think I can get any more accurate than this.
