Those panels are so tall! Nearly every other development in the city, would've used 2 or more panels to cover that height. Also, the use of something other than glass to cover the slab makes the panels look larger. Compare to the glass panels at the one, which are also full-floor-length, but use a glass panel to cover the slab. These panels also appear to be wider than usual, and better put together. In the above photos, the reflections on the glass are nearly flawless, as if the entire vision glass is one solid piece. Impressive!

Has anyone seen a rendering or indication of the proposed cladding to be used on the interior hangers.

Don't know if this is the latest but it's what's in the database and on onebloorwest.com.

I also have a question, do we know when this transitions from curtain wall to window wall (if at all). This render seems to indicate they'll be using different glass on the higher floors.

And those previously mentioned shakes have now dissipated! (To be fair though, a lot of others stepped to fill the photo documentation void and wonderfully so!) And also just in time before the tower is buried in snow and camped by colony of polar bears...

...either way, it's good to have Mr. Benito back,, safe and in good order! <3

Looks like the transition happens here just above swimming pool height:

So you're gone again by February? I hope this is just a very indulgent year for your overdue travels.

Included is the latest "time lapse" photo for my Flickr album, Oct 2020-Dec 2022.

The One (1 Bloor West) "time-lapse"
