Looking like they are sticking to 86 storeys:

We have asked for up-to-date architectural drawings. I want to see where this magical 86th floor is supposed to be. Failing new plans that shows where it is, we have dropped the DB file stats back to the 85-storey version.

And Tridel seems more of a foster parent taking in an unwanted child than that of a confident owner here. /sigh

The unwanted child of a receiver? Receivers are not equivalent to foster parents themselves, more like halfway houses. Mizrahi certainly did want this child, they just couldn't afford to raise them anymore. Tridel is taking on a sprouting teen that needs some experienced parenting to get it to adulthood!

Thread title needs a change now...

Done automatically with the update to the DB file!

So despite what it looks like, it seems The One is not heading towards the moon 😔

It’s not too bad but it is definitely a bummer
I think the top section of the newer version is disappointing, looking a little like an add-on, not too elegant. Oh well, it may balance better with 1BE as seen from the DVP.
 
Slim possibility 10 foot ceiling could be dropped for 9 foot ceilings.
No possibility of that: all of the external cladding materials — suspender frames, windows, etc — are already fabricated, so the floors will go up as designed.

Anywho, we have a new front page story on the latest happenings here!

100% agree on both points lol
As I said earlier I think the 85 story looks better overall on the skyline, but now pinnacle one younge is gonna stick out even more 😭
