Still at level 87
The next level 88 will be the last balcony level
The taper started at level 79.

A balcony on the 88th floor! Can you just imagine the wind at that height? Would it not be enough to lift you over the glass? Perhaps a higher glass balcony would be in order.

Yes, you would certainly not find me out on one! Maybe they should provide safety harnesses or parachutes!

Don't expect it anytime soon. The condo market is total garbage now.

I also don't see it starting anytime soon seeing as they moved all of the concrete staging equipment over to the phase 3 plot though we may start to see some kind of movement late 2026 maybe as Pinnacle has pretty deep pockets and I don't they would want their signature project sitting idle

We had a balcony on the 18th floor at Church and Yonge facing Rosedale Valley Road and the ravine....it was crazy windy some days. No... you could not stand or even go out onto the balcony some days. Grant it was a NE corner 50ft long. Pretty sure our couch was a handy addition to some encampment in the ravine. Yes...we tied the furniture down.

One of the buildings we lived in had a beautiful rooftop patio on the 21st floor. It was great up there, but the wind could be a real problem. It was basically impossible to barbecue with the lid open because there was always too much wind. I doubt you'd get much utility out of an 88th floor balcony, except for bringing guests out there for a few minutes to oooh and aaaah at the view.

Damn it I missed the opening to make comments to the city about this at the CoA. I dont mind the height increase at all, it's the damn monstrous podium of Phase 3 that's still the big issue. It's far too imposing, and it just casts an unnecessary shadow on the plaza, not to mention the amenities for those in Phase 1 and 2.Height approved.

I really dont get why Pinnacle is intent on this podium height.
