Yeah it looks about 850 - 900 feet.
Notice the Bank of Montreal Tower (FCP) doesn't have it's antennae yet.

Yes, but the buildings spire would be several feet higher than Scotia's roof.
On paper, BA was taller than Scotia. I'll get the exact numbers over the weekend.

The photo makes me realize how many ugly short office buildings could be demolished for new monster skyscrapers going forward....
I suppose Trump is gonna kill your Western view too?

Wow Richard E. Waugh is a UT member
Bay Adelaide will be shorter so your view won't be affected. Trump is another matter.

Nice Pics PSnake, thanks!
Are you sure they were taken on the 10th though? based on construction progress they seem to be from about a week ago.

Minus fifty points for suggesting that historic Art Deco towers should bite the dust.
Minus a billion points for using the words "going forward" in a post. Aargh! Those words should not be used outside of a middle management power point presentation.

I wasn't referring to art deco towers; I mean in the general area there are many boring generic towers that could potentially bite the dust. "Going forward" I shall attempt to use hipper words .... like ??? (I probably have read too many "forward-looking statements" from pos press releases for my investing DD stuff.)

Good answer, because I love that handful of art-deco towers on Bay between King and Queen. 390 Bay St needs to go, if anything around there.
And on the shadowing issues on NPS, that's fair enough on City Hall's part; but it's too bad the square is so close to our tallest buildings. It seems a primary reason for very tall buildings (which I love) not being built, so I wish they'd either suck it up or allow more height in other areas. I'd really like a true 1000 footer some day.
