They've now poured the 22nd floor. They have really picked up the pace since they started using that pumpcrete.

^ One Bloor is going up faster than all other U/C towers. it might get slow in winter.

Interesting that it's 22 floors, whereas the building behind it (33 Bloor) which is the same height is just 17 floors total.

Yeah but isnt that an office bldg.?

Yes the building behind it is commercial space and has greater height between floors.

Yup. Exactly, but I still didn't think they're be'd such a discrepancy between floors. I didn't think two buildings almost the same heigh could already have a 5 floor discrepancy at such a relatively low height.

If they've just poured the 22nd floor, from a visual point of view, that slab looks more like the ceiling of the 21st floor, so only a four floor discrepancy.
Also - perspective is everything. To me, these pictures show One Bloor as already being taller than the office tower - or at least matching the upper mech penthouse, which looks to be two stories above the 17th storey top floor. Therefore only a discrepancy of two floors (19 to 21).
And then there's this shot of sMT's from when One Bloor was only in the 20th floor slab, and from that angle it looks pretty close to 33 Bloor's 17th, maybe taller already.
One Bloor's first floor is as tall as 33 Bloor's, and the second and seventh are taller. Three through 6 are comparable. Only eight and higher would be shorter floors. We will need some shots that are from the same height as the top of 33 Bloor.

I know we mean well by saying sorry but we don't have to say it for something that is out of our control.
