Bay Adelaide Centre West Tower (Brookfield, 50s, WZMH)

[299 bloor call control.]

The view from Yonge and Bloor -- the crane's finally popped up into view

Other than the cranes that occupy the whole near field of the photo, you mean.

Oh, Toronto.

Uh... 299...

Where did you take that pic from?

If that camera were tilted down would you not have a great angle of the BSN and CASA sites?

 

[299 bloor call control.]

casa - from my apartment window. I don't get the best view of the CASA/BSN sites though because the Chartered Accountants building addition blocks out the angle a bit... once both start growing though, I'll probaly have a much better view of them (and sadly a much crappier view of the skyline)

April 6 visit to the big city....

Nice pics, Redroom, hope you enjoyed your visit!

 

[Redroom Studios]

thanks, I am very tired and sore from all the walking. lots more pics to sort through in the next few days...

Are those Leger-esque figures eventually gonna sit at the very top of the building?

The transparent glass on the 3rd floor of Bay Adelaide is really amazing. - It's transparent like the glass over at the RBC Centre, but it is also quite reflective at the same time. - When more of the glass goes up on the higher floors we can start creating our assesments and making comparisions. But like 3D said, this glass will surely hold it's own with other developments happening in the city right now.

Great shots, Redroom... as always!

Thanks!

Yeah, I'm looking forward to seeing more of that glass!

The core forms were raised again today, working on the 30th floor now.

Looking good. I know it's been said a hundred times, but it's a shame that it won't be taller than 50 storeys considering how 'fat' it is. It seems like they're replacing the infamous first stump with another. Grateful nevertheless that we're at least getting 50s.

 

[caltrane74]

It's going to be as tall as TD Centre, with a slightly slimmer profile than TD Centre.

...

So overall, not too bad.

Though it appears that the underground sections of BOTH towers are there, are there any definite plans/dates for starting the EAST BA Tower? Also, will the north-south PATH route going through the BA be opened when only the west tower is up?

Cal: glimpsed the curtain wall (finally) wrapping around one floor. Every angle is different and everything nearby is reflected. @ 50+ storeys.... this box will be spectacular.
