That's actually a good question. Any indication the bus terminal is to open before construction finishes on tower 1? It would make sense and condense the timelines a bit.

Edit: I believe tower 1 is set to open in 2020 and tower 2 in 2022. Two years isn't enough so maybe that's the intention?
 
Yes I imagine they will do something similar to Aura and open the base level first. I could see the GO bus terminal opening in Q4 2019.
 
The way I see it, the Go Bus Terminal is benefiting from CIBC wanting a phased relocation as not all their leases will obviously be expiring at the same time. I don't see it as enough to delay construction of a 50 storey office tower. Not in Toronto.
 
Also, the current architectural plans have the north tower at 243m, not 265m.

Correct.

Database file updated, thanks!

Very disappointing. The profile isn't as nice as tower 1 and the twin aspect is gone. The twins were grander than just two sibling towers
