Today, they finished the Yonge St concrete pour on the sidewalk and did a concrete pour on the columns that will hold up the next level 62. Is level 62 where they will pause to see if they can get a buyer for the building? If not, then the crane will have to grow taller.

I have a feeling we will not see construction stop as for the Crane rising they usually do those on Saturdays do they don't they
 
The stabby vibes at Yonge and Bloor are from blistering winter winds to the face. I recall the wind study for The One modelling 0.1% conditions (meaning rare but not unrealistic) where pedestrians could face 80km/h winds on the south east street corner.

Shout out to our dedicated photographers showing up rain or shine, windy or not.

EDIT: I fact checked myself because people get whiny when bad things are said about The One. Apparently the pre-construction conditions show max 79km/h and post-construction conditions show max 78km/h. Hard to believe winds will be reduced considering this building’s envelope. I think there’s a relatively wide margin for error in these very scaled down dimensional analyses. Study found in supporting documentation here.

Now we’re talking and bringing back some good childhood memories. I grew up a block from there. That little park was a fave as a kid, and truly is a most chill corner, and more importantly, a very green space on both sides of the street.

For those who don’t know, and unless I’m mistaken, this is at Lytton and Alexandra and is a pretty peaceful place to relax and sleep on a park unperturbed.
