Very scary. But Toronto's labour practises are amazing compared to Waterloo's or Vancouver's.

khristopher, I gather 'whatever' was referring to the fact that the construction workers were not secured to the building whatsoever when they were on the overhang platform AND did not have a hard hat on, which is required on any construction site ~

Yah that swamper standing on the OPEN platform without and kind of fall protection...
Lazy and stupid...
I see crap like that everyday...

Did you even have a clue as to what he was referring to??

I suspected that's what he meant. Is it enforced by anyone at construction sites? Maybe the supervisor?

Yes the super is ultimately responsible but windows are usually done after hours so when the cat's away...
So, here we go up to the top, behind the safety of the RCS, the Rail Climbing System” by Peri.
We come out under the forms for the floor above.
The forms are held up by Multiprop Shores by Peri, which can be set to the desired height..
We've now got a look at the cranes rising out of the floor below.
Shores holding up the Peri Skydeck forms:
Assembling forms:
Another look at the cranes:
A lot goes in to the floors:
"Chairs" will support the rebar within the floorplate:
Here's the top of the concrete pumping system, with an extendible arm:
It all looks like this up top:
A little closer to the elevator core:
Work goes on to extend the elevator core:

So awesome to get these inside views that we don't normally see. Is this the last update of this visit? Also, did you get any answers to the questions asked on here?

Very cool pics, thanks for that! What was it like on that top floor (windy, calm, etc.).
Not the last update, some answers (we'll try to cover them all), calm behind the RCS. It was rather windy at ground level that day. Not so much higher up, but maybe we went up as winds were dropping anyway?
Glad people are enjoying the pics!

Thank you thank you thank you for all these pics! It's great to see that future home of mine from these angles (although I'm in Absolute E). It is truly appreciated! Question: will any of you (the frequent contributors) be living there too?

Wow if they paint the undersides that dark, it's going to be very interesting!
