Photos taken today, Friday (July 19). Since I posted last Friday, a lot of upward movement as they apparently have started on level 63. Much of the blue scaffolding has moved up a level on the top, as have the corner scaffolds, up to around level 55 or so, as the hanger sections near completion...

Photos taken today, Friday (July 12). Sorry for the large batch of 14 here... Since my post last Friday, a lot of progress all around on the tower. At the top, the super column forms and scaffolds have moved up a level, and the side and inside corner blue forms have now jumped the third...

Thanks 3Dementia for that golden repost of my shot above! Here is a more current photo of mine, taken yesterday, Sunday (July 7). From College and Queen's Pk Crescent, that's Whitney Block of Queen's Park on the left.

Photos taken today, Friday (July 5). Yeah I can attest to the crime at Yonge and Bloor. Just two weeks ago while taking photos of this building, someone stole my helmet from my parked bike! Had it on Yonge south of Charles, never in my decades of cycling has someone taken my helmet! But I got...

Photos taken today, Friday (June 28). Despite the reports about whether the project will be completed or is even viable anymore, it rises! At the top, forms have moved up since my update a week ago and they are at floor 61, maybe even 62. With the super-column forms moving up and some scaffolds...

Was leaving work on Front Street yesterday (Thu., Jun 26) and remembered that I saw some new signage in the food court under Simcoe Park directing people to something at 160 Front St. Wait a minute, I thought, isn't that the new TD Terrace? Is it now connected to the PATH network? So I took the...

Photos taken today, Friday (June 21). Since my post last week, the super-column forms moving up at the top as work progresses on levels 59 and 60, as well with the blue corner forms, now around level 53. Only one of the three Rail Climbing Systems (RCSs) have moved up since last week, when they...

Photos taken today, Friday (June 14). Work continues at levels 59 and 60 at the top, and since last week, the blue corner forms have gone up a level (52?) as floors are poured around the new set of hangers on levels 51 to 56. The black Rail Climbing Systems (RCSs) continue their ascent: last...

Photos taken today, Friday (June 7). The top of the tower has now moved past the 3rd mechanical levels, with work now on floor 59 and, it seems, the core of 60. The blue scaffolds on top have moved up since my post last week, revealing the attachment points for the next set of hangers, which now...

Photos taken yesterday, Friday (May 31). Good to meet fellow UT contributor kotsy also taking snaps of 1 Bloor! With all the photos posted here, surprising I don't bump into more UT photographers! Friday, at the top of the tower, the forms are where they were a week ago, with the third...

Photos taken today, Friday (May 24). Still working on the third mechanical levels, floors 57 and 58, so the blue scaffolds on top are about where they were when I last posted a week ago, same goes for the corner blue scaffolds, looks like they are at level 51 which holds the base of the next set...

Photos taken yesterday, Friday (May 17). My timing was bad as it was raining heavily as I visited the Bloor and Yonge vicinity around 2:30 in the afternoon. But a lot of movement since my post last Friday in particular with the skin emerging from behind the steadily rising Rail Climbing Systems...

Photos taken today, Friday (May 10). Since my last post a week ago, work at the top continues on the 3rd mechanical levels, floors 58 and 59, while the blue corner forms have moved up to around the top of the most recent set of hangers, around floor 51. Presumably the corner forms will stay...

Photos taken today, Friday (May 3rd), save for the last one. A dreary, drizzly day, in contrast to last Friday's beautiful weather. And thanks for the compliments on my set of photos from a week ago - always nice to hear things like that! Since those photos from last Friday, much at the top...

Photos taken today, Friday (Apr. 26). Work still continues at the top, though the blue forms all seem to be at the same level they were at when I last posted a week ago - the top at level 58, the 3rd mechanical level, the corner blue forms at around level 49. Presumably slower progress due to...

Photos taken today, Friday (Apr. 19). Not much movement at the top of the tower since my last post a week ago, but all of the black Rail Climbing Systems (RCSs) moved up at least one level. They seem to still be on level 57 at the top, some of the blue scaffolding on the east side now up where...

Photos taken today, Friday (Apr. 12). Since I posted last Friday, it seems work on third mechanical level is well underway as floors 57 and 58 are reached at the top. Most of the blue forms at top have also moved up one level, save for some on the east side. The corner blue forms are where they...

Photos taken today, Friday (Apr. 5). Since the post I had last Friday, the blue forms at the top remain at the same level, with the tower up to floor 56 or 57. The corner blue forms have moved up, as the corners have been poured for level 47 or so. And the west Rail Climbing System (RCS) has...

Photos taken today, Good Friday (Mar. 29). Since my set of photos last Friday, the blue forms on the east side have moved up one level, as they work on level 56 or 57 at the top, level 57 would be the first floor of the 3rd mechanical level. The corner blue forms have moved up as the corners...

Photos taken today, Friday (Mar. 22), as the snow came down! So the shots here are kinda... hazy! A fair bit of progress since I posted last Friday. The blue forms on top have moved up a level and are on 56 / 57 for the core, I believe. Level 57 is a milestone floor, the first level of the third...
