It can't be because I didn't live there in 2009 and I took that photograph. I only moved to that unit in October 2010.
Sorry - my mistake. The lighting and the position of the Reve crane obscured much the 550 Wellington building. When I looked more closely, the 550 Wellington building is there, and had been completed when your picture was taken.

No problem. I checked the date on the JPG file: it was taken on Nov 2, 2010. ProjectEnd was spot on!

I have to say I am pleasantly surprised how well this has turned out. really nice mix of materials and details throughout the entire project. not sure if anyone has thought of this but I kind of see it as Toronto's version of Hudson Yards. I always found the transition of the skyline rather abrupt where Front St met Spadina but all that has changed now. the stepped midrise residential buildings on the back side help this transition nicely into the surrounding neighbourhood.
