Great pic NiceTommy! are they working 24 hours a day??

I wonder how the structure would look from inside!

The video attached to the Globe and Mail article that peepers posted on the previous page shows the inside of the scaffold. It is daytime in the video however.

If we could turn that platform into a permament ride, oh the fun that could be had....

When the sun is setting, the reflected light off the scaffolding makes it glimmer like a crown on FCP. I think it looks great.

I wasn't really sure where to put this photo, but I figured this thread would probably be good. I took this from Grange Park on June 24th.

Nice picture Kristopher, and it shows just what an amazing asset Grange Park is. If ever there was a park for revitalization it is this one. Oh for some formal gardens filled with fountains and statuary etc!
 
I forgot I took this shot (photo is now about a month old) but I thought the angle was weird enough that others would like it. Three buildings combined into one!

Taken from near Sherbourne & Gerrard.

It seems to fit in this thread:

I vote that they leave the cladding on the top floors, put some boarding around it and give it a paint job etc, it looks kind of cool, it gives a whole new look to BMO
