The logo and word mark are way too small for me. I can barely read it even from a couple of blocks away. Same for Two Bloor West. I don't have this issue with any other corporate logo on the skyline.

I doubt it's viewable from St. Catharine's either!

Two new steel supports installed! How exciting.
New CIBC sign being installed on the east side of phase 1 this morning.
Pictures from last night and this morning.

Almost ready for a jump up a floor.

Possible new crane base prep at the east edge under the stop light? One more crane going somewhere here.

I love that the logos on this are fairly understated. Much better than the renderings with the old CIBC logo, which looked absolutely obnoxious.

The new logo is an improvement, but as others have mentioned, it's disproportionally small on this tower.

To me it reads more like CIBCO or CIB Co.

Also noticed on Amex Shop Small locator that there’s a Zaza Espresso bar listed at 81 Bay. I wonder if that’s going in the food court on the 4th floor or part of the GO Bus terminal.

I think I read that a Second Cup was going into the USBT proper.

Some shots from CIBC Square Park this past Saturday.

One thing of note, which I know has been discussed previously, is that I hope the trees do ok. Birch trees don't always fare well in urban environments and a couple of them looked like they're just hanging on. Otherwise it's a nice little spot and offers an amazing vantage point of the core, east waterfront development and beyond.
