Today's update.
There is some concrete pouring going on for the walls.

That seems like a first, slab yesterday and columns today?

They have been doing that since the last mechanical floor.

I thought I read that they intend to install more permanent safety netting around the 1st mechanical level. My guess is the cladding scaffolding would have to ascend past the mech. level before this is possible?
That scaffolding seems to move quite slowly, so difficult to say how long.

Makes sense. No hurry. Brass Rail probably won’t be taking the ground floor space until after the new year at this point . . .

Photos taken today, Friday (Dec. 8). Since my last set of photos last Friday, the blue scaffolds at the top remain where they were - the 46th or 47th floor - while the corner blue scaffolds have gone up one level as work on the 2nd mechanical level progresses (see BloorMan's recent posts from above). As for the Rail Climbing Systems (RCSs) installing the skin below, the north and west RCSs remain at the 13th floor, while the east RCS is now up to floor 16, installing that floor's skin. That RCS is now covering the 1st mechanical level, so it will be interesting to see what happens next - will it just park there for a while, or move quickly up to level 19?
The photos: starting with my usual "time-lapse" Flickr album addition, the view from the south on Yonge, at Dundas, then more views of the east RCS as it installs the 16th floor skin, and whose top now covers the mechanical level. Then, a shot of the new sidewalk being made on the Bloor Street side, followed by views from Cumberland, east of Bay including a tight shot showing the blue corner scaffolds now at the 2nd mechanical level. Finally, some shots from the NE.

One Bloor West (The One) "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...
