So with the tempo that they raise the crane on this project the next time that they go up the crane should be about the same height as prestige as they usually add about four sections each time

Already making a great presence at a fraction of its final height.

That would be approx. 1/3rd...

I really wish they would have kept the cladding dark like they did with the podium.

As noted a while back in the thread, the cladding is the same. You're just seeing different angled reflections.

...I mean, it's all shiny and sleek as the renders have suggested. And far more welcomed glazing than Toronto grey aluminum backed spandrel that was on sale at Home Depot. Just saying.

Interesting. I was wondering that but since I saw so many pics of it from different angels and times of day, it always looked liked a different shade so I thought it was.. I was going to hold off on that post until the cladding went a bit higher but since I saw so many pics that make it look different, I thought it had to be a different colour.

Thanks for clarifying.

I felt like the fence was the best place to attach my watermark:

Excellent sense of channeling your inner Russell Wilson here.

Thanks a lot. Interestingly, before my interest in Wilson surged over the past couple of months, the team I was most interested in (and continue to be) was the Rams, who could be seen as having been his "nemesis" (particularly when he was a Seahawk).

Sky Tower appears to be at just over 130 metres right now, with the crane being nearly 170 metres based on @kotsy's post on the previous page.

Here are two pairs of photos documenting Sky Tower on September 3, 2023 and today:

My preferred angle for documenting Sky Tower's construction, complete with the Bronco where the lamp post meets Pinnacle Centre 1:

Yeah, that transfer slab held things up for a bit. And will hopefully continue to do so.

I honestly don't know how to interpret the bolded part, but the transfer slab here is quite thick, hence why it would take longer to pour.

...it's a phat transfer slab though.
