I believe you've stated that opinion in this thread several times already.

Enough that it just seems like (I'm gonna feign shock here), trolling.

It's not actually skinny! It has quite a large floorplate. It just looks svelte because of its height.

I believe the poster here is in world where voicing such would encourage the developers (or The City) to tear it all down and put up something better. I get that, as I feel the same way about "Design" Haus...

...but in reality, it doesn't work that way. At all. And currently the tower is under receivership, so they couldn't really do that even if that was a reality. So yeah, the repeating opinion is rather pointless at this juncture.

Even if you believe in infinite realities, none of them would contain a scenario where the developers willingly tear this building down to put up something "better".

EDIT: I'll also add, with a name like "Cryptopreneur", who would ever think they were trolling?!

The One must be getting close to surpassing First Canadian Place as the tallest building in Toronto/Canada as well as becoming the first "Supertall" for Toronto/Canada. Are there any estimates of its current height? We must be fast approaching a red-letter day for this forum!

Looks like they are setting up the forms to pour level 77 (mechanical) and poured the elevator core for level 77, which means there is still another 30 metres or so for the elevator core to go before it reaches FCP.
