I think that there may be sufficient interest in this subject to justify a dedicated top 20 list of buildings under construction in Metro Toronto (plus Mississauga).

If I am missing an under-construction project, or the information is incorrect, please let me know and I will correct the list.

L-Tower, Parade, and maybe 18 York.

L-Tower, Parade, and maybe 18 York.

L Tower: has excavation started yet?
Parade: east tower not tall enough (370 feet), has west tower resumed construction yet? I should point out that buildings on hiatus are not included in the list, otherwise Success 2 would be on it.
18 York: not tall enough (374 feet)

Star Tower and Beyond the Sea are the same

The project consists of three buildings: Beyond the Sea 1, Beyond the Sea 2 and Star Tower. From the website:

Come home to the wondrous Beyond the Sea. Nestled in an idyllic setting on the Etobicoke waterfront, away from the hustle of the downtown core, Beyond the Sea is a spectacular master-planned community.

With three striking glass towers that overlook the lake, dramatic views, spatial suites and amenities that are truly sensational, it is a place where style resides.

From this UT post:

An off-site office will handle sales for the third building, called Star Tower, which will rise 44 storeys and complete the development on Lake Shore Boulevard West, near Park Lawn Road.
 
Somewhere in Etobicoke

Beyond the Sea

Phase 1 .. 27 storeys
Phase 2 .. 36 storeys
Phase 3 (a.k.a. Star Tower) .. 44 storeys, 151.5 m


Jeez
 
Added Absolute World, north tower.

I had not realized that it was under construction:

Removed Beyond the Sea, tower 1
Changed M5V height per urbandb.com information

p.s. Thanks, maestro! This will be a lot easier with additional eyes verifying the information.

This is a more focused list than the 400 foot list, and I hope to update it much more frequently. I expect that this list will look much different by next summer.

M5V: 34 floors
 
Nice list! I think that, instead of excavation, you should list the currently going down in the ground as "sinking." Just for symmetry.

Why not? Done.

Although "Sinking" does make me think of the Titanic a little bit.
