It was a risk just trying to get that close to take that shot.

What's the official height of this building? I heard it was much higher than 257 meters on the one bloor west blog.

One Bloor West is a good deal taller. This is One Bloor East.

What's the official height of this building? I heard it was much higher than 257 meters on the one bloor west blog.

I explained the situation in this post…

and here's what I said:

One Bloor East was definitely not approved as high as 295 metres. Everyone would have been screaming about it being "almost a supertall" if it had been, and they never did. 279 metres was the approved height for the top of the fins that were in the Bazis plan. The 257 metres/844 feet that we have in the One Bloor East dataBase file (and therefore thread title) comes from HPA's working drawings for what actually got built.​

From my friend's balcony the other day. Man oh man am I jealous of his view.

Nice. Your friend will bear witness to a lot of great new projects in the future. Hope he has a camera.

The Friends of the Banner neighbourhood group complained and got a height reduction.

Banner shadowing is the scourge of our time.

The top of this building is kind of boring.

Hopefully it lights up or something.
