My pleasure. We list geeks gotta stay together!

I don't see 481 University Avenue, 605ft on your list.

Noticed there's several levels of scaffolding on the roof of the Queen St. tower this morning.

Architect is KFA.

Shoring machine was in full action this morning! I take that as "super-official" start of construction.

Big Mickey Mouse air balloon on site this morning!

Thanks WK. This morning they had the guidelines laid out on the southbound lanes. Feels very roomy!

We got a notice in the mail today that Woodbine bike lanes under construction Aug 18-31, 2017 from O'Connor to Queen. toronto.ca/woodbinebikelanes

Thanks interchange42, that's probably where everyone is getting the 569 foot figure. I was part of the team that did the marketing video for the project when they were courting anchor tenants and that's indeed the height of the model we were given to animate. I don't have any records of it but...

CTBUH has One York street as 173.5m. I hadn't looked at Emporis for a long time and kind of forgot about them as a source. Maybe they're the only ones who have it right. As a fellow list enthusiast this is one height that has been bugging me....

Back to the height of One York Street being listed as 569 feet. Take a look at toronto boy picture: http://urbantoronto.ca/forum/threads/toronto-sun-life-financial-tower-harbour-plaza-residences-237m-67s-menkes-sweeny-co.8020/page-233 One York is at least a few floors shorter than Maple Leaf...

Every database I have checked shows Sun Life Financial Centre (One York) as 569 feet. That would have been the full height, but I am pretty sure they decided to lop off 5 storeys of the building somewhat late in the planning process but I can find no documentation showing a revised height...

They have been installing scaffolding to the roof level on the west side for the past couple of weeks. Hopefully upwards soon!

The platform at the north end will be for construction trailers and such.

Tower crane is now up and the side crane is being dismantled.

Crane is up at the south end!

Actually looks like the tallest is 320m!

There's a piece of solid-curvy-slanty glass on the south side at the first mechanical level (76th floor?)

Thanks for this post, it's fascinating that the ground floor became the 2nd floor! Would never have guessed that at a casual glance.

Construction guy told me yesterday they still need to go down another 16 feet at the north end. Big hole gonna get a lot bigger!
