That little parkette is going to look great.

From MattToronto at SkyscraperCity:

Not sure why the quality of this is so bad (I blame using the HDR option on my iPhone), but here is a first glimpse at some cladding. Looks good to me.

this (alongside couture) is a refreshing cladding colour look... that whitish mixed with the dark/navy blue stands out

I took that picture at night (obviously) but I'm most excited to see how it looks during the day.

This is the username I wanted to change to in SSC but Jen doesn't allow name changes anymore for obvious reasons. Just look at my signature

Here's a shot from our construction camera at 9:00 am this morning showing the newly installed glass. The tower is rising quickly and I'm looking forward to going down there and shooting some pictures from the top slab. Apparently you can see the lake and islands now.

Cladding looks very good so far.

Does anyone have any details on the Minor Variance notice?

Maybe its just the contrast(between the panels and the glass), but that cladding looks very dynamic.

 

[AlbertC]

I agree. It's still early but those first pieces of cladding look promising. A well executed black and white clad tower would be quite striking.

Does anyone have any details on the Minor Variance notice?

That's an old notice for the June 22, 2011, meeting. It sought a small list of changes (altered setbacks, changes to the mechanical room, etc...). All changes sought were approved. Old height 156M. New height 157.9M.
