Wow, that streetscape at Yonge & Rosehill almost looks Parisian

Photos taken today, Friday (June 7). The top of the tower has now moved past the 3rd mechanical levels, with work now on floor 59 and, it seems, the core of 60. The blue scaffolds on top have moved up since my post last week, revealing the attachment points for the next set of hangers, which now have all been attached, from the base of floor 51 to the top of floor 56. The corner blue scaffolds remain where they were last week, around level 51. Further down, most of the black Rail Climbing Systems (RCSs) have moved up. Last week, the east, north and west RCSs were at levels 29, 28 and 27, respectively, the lower decks of the RCSs installing the skin at that floor. This week, they are all at level 29, and the skin now is in place at that level on the south face, one level higher than last week, the rest of the floor presumably at least partly installed under the RCSs. The smaller RCS on the south side - not actually an RCS as it is hoisted up via crane, as we saw captured by Benito - has also moved up, to level 27. Also captured by Benito, some glass being installed at the SW side on levels 27 and 28 - did someone screw us and raise the west RCS before all the glass was installed?
After my usual Flickr "time-lapse" album addition, views from Yonge and Dundas, then from Charles Street showing the present state of the south face where the highest visible level of skin is, and a shot of the top from near there. A shot from the SW base, showing the crane and new hangers at the top. The view from Bloor west of Balmuto by Holt Renfrew. Then the diagonal view from Cumberland east of Bay, wide and close-ups of the RCSs and the top. The view from Bloor east of Yonge by the old Bay entrance, and from the intersection below. And finally from Bloor west at Bedford, the tower slowly covering its tall neighbour to the east.

The One (1 Bloor West) "time-lapse"
From October, 2020, as above-ground construction started in earnest at The One (1 Bloor W.) in Toronto. More or less a weekly photo usually taken on a Friday, with some gaps during early-on construction hiatuses. The initial photographs are from 2015, during demolition at the site, 2018, during...

Looks like one beam left to be tied and then they can start on the floor layout
