Going off the article, it seems like we're good to go regarding the outside of the building which tbh, for 99% of us, is what matters. Although it did seem like the additional 6 floors may be up in the air. I'd prefer to see those as they make the overall design look better, but I could also see a buyer cheaping out and not wanting to pay the city what was negotiated to have those extra 6 floors.

Personally, I hope out that when this whole mess is figured out, they can get Apple back. The TEC Apple Store, despite expansion, is still insanely busy, and hopefully a second store downtown would help make the shopping experience at either store less chaotic. And tbh, I'm not sure where else they can go for a second store given this was meant to be their Toronto flagship, and there aren't many (if any) other spaces that fit their design aesthetic.

So just my thinking but if they haven't started laying out for plates on the finished floor framing wise they could go forward with their idea on lower floors instead of higher simply count the six floors they got given as the ones above the hotel directly and save the bigger More luxurious units for the higher floors this could bring investors in at a little bit lower margin without killing the main selling point of the building of having luxury units at one of the highest points in Toronto
