Well judging by where the crane is sitting it looks like it needs to do a lift before they can continue and as this is a mechanical floor I imagine they are probably going to add multiple sections so they may need to put new collars to tie back to the building I also could be completely wrong but hey I like commenting sometimes 😂

If anyone has a Prime Video subscription and you haven't seen this.. you might get a kick out of this episode of Amazon Prime Originals:

Lux Listings Toronto - Season 1 Episode 7 “The Crown Jewel”

Sam Mizrahi gives the realtors a tour of the building (great shots of the 40 foot high retail space) and then gives them the task of finding a buyer for the penthouse at the top for $35 million.

Some great fly-throughs of the penthouse and other goodies.

^ Literally just came here to post about it. I've been skeptical of this project (mostly Mizrahi's attitude tbh) but I am very impressed by that retail space. It's unlike anything I've ever seen before. And it does scream Apple Store lol can't wait for it to be a Rexall :/
 
Given the sometimes bewildering, drama-filled (epic) journey this project has been on... that retail space seems perfect for another Gordon Ramsay signature restaurant. 🔪🔪🩸

Bring the Hell’s Kitchen restaurant into Canada and open up first Canada restaurant at The One in the future. That would be great and I’m fan of Hell’s Kitchen.
 
Looks like it'll be 4.5 months until top out if they keep up at current pace


Did anyone ever find out if it's topping out at the original height or approved height increase? After article in the Star, there was some back and fourth on here as to what height but I don't remember hearing anything after as far as confirmation one way or the other.

We still haven't heard anything about what height they are building to.

Changed my timeline after realizing I based it off the size of the building in the comparison graphics, which is much shorter than the actual plans.
 
Looks like it's about a year until top out if they keep at current pace and it's built to the highest approved height.
Seems to grind to a halt whenever they reach one of the mech floors. Makes sense given how different the forms are and how it's essentially a transfer slab every like...18 floors. Wonder if Pinnacle One will catch up. It's a pretty consistent floorplan as that one climbs and is substantially simpler...
