It also looks like they have moved the hoarding for the corners up past the second mechanical level

Photos taken today, Friday (Feb. 16) (Save for one). A lot of progress since my post last Friday. The first Rail Climbing System (RCS) to start rising from the first mechanical level has done so, revealing (barely) the first mechanical level cladding. That's the east RCS, now up to level 17, while the north and west RCSs stay at 16. The blue forms at top have moved up, and they are up to floor 53, I believe. And the corner blue forms have been raised above the second mechanical level. If I count correctly, the next raising of the top blue forms will reveal the hanger attachment points on the super columns for the next set of those. And... a new set of black exterior scaffolding has been added to the south side on one side of the crane, smaller than the Rail Climbing Systems, but there presumably to install the glass and cladding. Perhaps we'll soon see a similar scaffold on the other side of the crane.
A dull day, so the colours and exposure a bit muted. Photos, starting with my latest "time-lapse" Flickr album addition, then to views from the south where we can see the new small black scaffold next to the crane, and the east RCS up one level. A view of the SE corner where we can see cladding on the super column just emerging from behind the east RCS and the daylight behind - the first hint of what the notched tower will look like. The view from by Holt Renfrew, and a closer view of the now-exposed second mechanical level corners, the scaffolds having been raised. The more diagonal view from Cumberland east of Bay, with close-ups, and then the view from the west, Bloor at Bedford. And a final bonus shot I took on Saturday (Feb 10) at the Don Lands, looking up Cherry with the new (north) bridge, and 1 Bloor W in the distance. (This photo was posted on that thread over the weekend.)

One Bloor West (The One) "time-lapse"
From October, 2020, as above-ground construction started in earnest at The One (1 Bloor W.) in Toronto. More or less a weekly photo usually taken on a Friday, with some gaps during early-on construction hiatuses. The initial photographs are from 2015, during demolition at the site, 2018, during...

The One & 1 Bloor East make quite the pair - when completed, it's going to look like a freakishly tall supermodel standing next to an already tall (but much shorter) muscle man.

Level 53 was poured today. Looks like the crane will need to grow soon.

Your poor Humber Bay Shores view
Also can't believe that this is only 53 and it is right near you already. Have you made friends with the penthouse units yet?

At least it'll be of a handsome building and not just some spandral palace.Your poor Humber Bay Shores view
