I feel like we should stand at attention right now, and give a salute to Mizrahi, Toronto, and Canada.

BTW, I want to say thanks, once again, to all who contribute to our enjoyment here by posting photos, videos, schematics, etc. This place would be boring without your participation. Also, thanks to all who provide "colour" commentary. It's much appreciated.

an icon is rising indeed! excited to see this project finally get off the ground. crazy to think how tall this thing will be when it's done

My glasses must not have been working when I sketched that quick massing (some of these renders are a little misleading too..). As an apology let's get this show back on the road.

Almost time for an update lol

Nice, that's the 8th one.

All super columns installed now.

Everything has been quite predictable/logical to this point. I'm very interested to see what they do next though.

I'm not a building scientist but my guess is it's going to go up for another ~290m.

I think he meant their approach at the next few levels?! (Building scientist?)

That was a multi-level joke and it went right over your head

^ not bad kotsy... another layer (level) added.

Speaking of layers, I prefer this term much more than the often misspelled "storeys" and the contentious "floors" (1. is there a 13th floor?, 2. why is the first floor the ground floor when it's not dirty? 3. When travelling in Europe why do I have to go up to the first floor to get to my second floor hotel room? etc.).

"Hey Sam, you are building a lot of layers" here. Sounds neat.

I assume one could define "building scientist" as an engineer, structural or otherwise.

...and there's lots of things that go over my head. Still trying to figure out fettuccine/pasta business a few pages back. Everyone on the planet seemed to get that but me.

They have started to extend the super columns, it was pouring rain did not take any photos.

We need to start a gofundme for a 24 hour camera trained on the site.
