...well as long as is PATH route doesn't lead us through people's living rooms and bedrooms there it should be okay.

Just a note to say that anyone wanting to discuss the demolition of the Toronto Star building (application to demolish was received by the City last week) should do that in the thread for the south block here. Thanks!

This is looking very Miami-ish. Which is a good thing?

I grew up in Le Méridien hotels, and I'm thrilled to see the brand come back to Canada in style with a property like this; hopefully the interiors and offerings are beautiful. Late 2025 might be a smidge optimistic given the building's progress so far, but fingers crossed.

Looking forward to this one; will hunt for renderings/info and share accordingly.

Here are a few photos I took of Pinnacle One Yonge this afternoon, starting from outside Union Station:

Spoiler: Height comparison

At a height of 1,134+ feet, Sky Tower will be at least 34 feet higher than the spire of Wilshire Grand Center, the tallest building on the West Coast:

Sky Tower will also be 120+ feet higher than The One, and among North American cities, only New York and Chicago have completed skyscrapers taller than Sky Tower.

Very interested in the race between "Pinnacle One Yonge" and the "One" for Canada's first super tall. Have either of them surpassed the 300M mark as of yet?, and who is ahead?

Nope. And The One will likely reach that mark first. It won't be the tallest though at the end of the day.

Application Details

www.toronto.ca

Phase 3 (the 92-storey supertall in pre-construction on the north parcel) has had a SPA resubmission with some tweaks.

Height fanboys will rejoice due to a 90 centimetre increase from 306.8m to a new height of 307.7m. With a grade of 76.8m above-sea-level, the top of the parapet is now proposed at 384.5 above-sea-level, note that we do not consider non-static elements like the building maintenance unit in building height.

Additional changes include 11 more affordable rental units and 28 more vehicular parking spaces as well as a minor GFA redistribution & unit mix redistribution.

I cannot wait until shovels go into the ground for this building kind of hoping it will be when sky Tower gets to be about 2/3 final height Don't ask me why I pick that milestone just throwing random hope out there
