Great pics. How does the white (round?) beam (see section below) fit into things here - is the skeleton of the 'crown' exposed?

I'm presuming due to the lack of a floor being contructed here, this is some sort of 2 story conference room or something. White tubular parts will likely be exposed when all is said and finished, while maintaining the continuity of the wind...er, curtain wall that will be attached to them...

...I mean I am no expert here, as I can't even name things properly in the industry standard. But it does seem whenever painted steel works are involved, they usually serve as a decorative aspect as well as function. And CIBC Square and St Lawrence Market North both have examples of this.

Glad the original street level windows are being reinstated. I remember they were rather crudely opened up.

The window installation seems to have stalled since October 23.
The supply of stock appears to be continuing.

Pictures from today.

We’ve lost one postcard view, but we’ll soon get many more

There are literally hundreds of places to get a good shot of the CN tower

It's always been a popular angle with street photographers, but my comment was in jest.

That was a very unique "one of a kind" vantage point though so I see what others are saying.

Another hack job but an update, nonetheless. Not 100% on what's going on up top there right now but suffice to say it's going to be a lot of complex bracing for the crown.

I always love your updates and this one captures almost everything we need to know... but the garbage bags look way too nice. I know... picky.

I think this building is going to look stunning when done, when I am downtown at street level it sticks out and really catches the eye. Loving it.
