I haven't seen this type of crane in Toronto before (though I'm certainly not looking at all the cranes). They've used these in Vancouver for a few years
Far more popular in Europe where tight street grids and more-limited load permissions force builders to adopt smaller solutions like this.

This is mass timber, too -- I wonder if that was the thing that tipped them into this scale of a crane.
 
Update: Big temporary crane thing camped out there now.
