Out of curiosity, what happens if you've bought a penthouse in a project like this ... and then they tack on a bunch of extra floors? Do you get first dibs on moving up to the new PH level? Are you automatically moved up? Or had they not sold those floors yet, so that it is all moot?

They would usually tack on the additional floors somewhere in the upper section of the building and move the higher floors even higher

For example, in an 85 storey building, if they wanted to add 20 storeys. They would probably plop the 20 extras from floor 70-90. And the original 71-85 floors would be moved up as 91-105. I don't know what was done for The Sky Tower specifically, but that's usually the norm for height increases.

I've looked at the plans again, and I see that available suites are uniformly starting at the 27th floor. Further, units with balconies begin at the 31st floor. However, I've never seen floor plans - or any availability at all - for the units between the 14th floor and the 29th floor.

With the address of "One Yonge Street" I really hope this becomes an iconic landmark and not just some run-of-the-mill office building or condo.

I believe the address will be 7 Yonge.

This must be less than a week per floor. Damn!

...yeah, that newly installed sausage maker on top has already spat out a floor. Goodness!

This begs the question............ if HP designed actual sausage, would you eat it?; or admire it and wait til the value-engineered version came out to buy? LOL * ducks *

It's the case of quality meats versus mystery meats. Depending on the developer, if could be the former or the latter... /shrug <3

You can see the brackets where bands of white aluminum cladding will be added to add "visual weight" to the base of the tower.

Just for the record in counting floors as we approach the 100’s

This is my favorite. North bound Yonge off ramp with some cars going south. In front of a police car in the bike lane. Grid lock. Lots of horn honking on Yonge St. like the Leafs won the Stanley cup.

The South bound traffic is in the bike lane due to the North bound lanes being under construction. Traffic is always crazy at Bay,Yonge and Jarvis.

Only minor gripe atm - it'd be nice if the bands on the podium could be more white vs grey as they are in the render ! Otherwise so far it's pretty close.

The SkyTower is starting to get close to 100 meters.
For reference, the Toronto Star building is 101 meters to the top, and where I am taking the pictures is 108 meters to the top, but 99 meters to the top floor.
