Taken today from Galleria On The Park during sunset, the moody sky, the sun kiss, just all lined up.

Photos taken today, Friday (Dec. 19). A chilly and very windy day... At the top, the mass dampener is somewhat visible from one of my shots from the west, the last one here. (That's what the dark shape is, isn't it?) Further down, the Rail Climbing Systems (RCSs) installing the building's skin have moved up since I posted a week ago on the east and north sides, now resting near the top of the last mechanical level, floor 78. The west one remains at 76, the south at 73.

Absolutely.
The 'net is already drowning in this crap. We don't need it here.

Is this Toronto's first Mass Tuned Damper, or are there other such installations?

Someone correct me if I’m wrong but, aside from the CN tower, I’m pretty sure M3 at M city beat this as the first skyscraper with a Tuned Mass Damper in the GTA

So there’s only one completed TMD right now, and this one will be the next. And also I’m also pretty sure pinnacle one Yonge will be the third skyscraper to have one installed.

Actually I'm pretty sure M1 and M2 both have TMD'S

There are a number of them now. Can't remember them all. One Bloor East has one. Pretty sure it's the slosh tank type. IIRC the Massey Tower has one. There are others.

it's crazy how modern skyscrapers can stay so solid even at 70–80 floors up with strong winds. the engineering and construction tech these days just keeps getting better and better, makes you appreciate all the work that goes into keeping them standing.
