Will there be some kind of semi outdoor patio on the upper part of the old structure there? Is that why that inner part is clad with curtain wall?

That's where the pool will be. It remains to be seen what the final look of that section will be.

Sorry, I meant it remains to be seen how much of a mishmash that area will be: there is clumsy spandrel panelling on the north half of the top of that tower, and who knows if they'll do a better job on the south side.

True. I don't think it will be very clean - even on the renders it was a bit of a mess.
 
I walked from Front/Scott to Bloor/Spadina yesterday and enjoyed seeing this pop out from a number of surprising angles. Looking up University from King st is especially nice. Big, broad streetwall forming on the west side.
