I just stopped on my ride in to watch them raise and install the first connector truss between the two east buildings this morning! Very exciting, much faster than watching the Cityplace skybridge go up (though not a fair comparison)

I thought it was just a trick of the light on the different angles but it sure looks like every other floor they are alternating between opaque and clear glass on the balconies. I kinda wish they'd done the whole thing in the opaque glass.

I've noticed that the balcony doors on the east side are white as opposed to black on the north and south.

Guys on site today said start time 10pm tonight and should take 10hrs. But only if winds are below 30kmh.

I asked a construction guy on Friday and he said they have another 25 feet to go down.

Crane is up.

Some glass up on the east side at the south end. Looks pretty good.

I asked one of the workers there the other day and he said it was the new glass.

Glass is now installed on the south east mechanical penthouse screen.

Ground floor is 81.00m so heights are 215.90m and 151.0m

Scaling the plans I have and the photo of the elevation I come up with a height of 242m for the residentials and 154m for the office.

The west residential tower shown is a slightly askew rectangle following the line of Lake Shore. The light-lined east residential tower is like a mis-shapened peanut (or liver-shaped) in plan. Looks like it has wrap around balconies similar to Ice.

Crane for Delta is on site in pieces ready to be put up by the big truck crane also on site.

Top of spire is now at the top of the jacking structure.

Spire jacking has started. It's about half way up the jacking structure.

2nd crane going up this morning.

Architects drawings show 55 x 58m.

The first piece of "slanty" glass has just been installed on the east side. Looks sharp.

Wow, look at that tasty reflection.

This one is now very visible on the drive down Mount Pleasant.
