Saw this the other day from Yonge St looking South. It looks so dated already and yet still not even fully built. Shoulda taken a pic.

Agreed, it also doesn't look right at from street level, like something is missing.

Not done, @mburrrrr. There are still bits and pieces missing on the north and east sides, as seen in your pix.

and the clouds set in.... lightning will strike next for my wishful thinking.
They have temporary (?) brackets to hold the cables away from the glass and maybe an 8’ reach to the lower windows. I couldn’t wait until they were near the base.

As part of the skyline it doesn't look that bad. But the full view from street level is a whole other story lol.

What a gorgeous day in the city!
The balconies are done.
The street lights are complete. (Not powered yet)
The upper Sony Centre roof is being replaced.
The windows are being washed on a perfect mostly sunny day.
I might have to hang out here all day to see how they reach the lower level windows. Oh darn.
Can we call this project complete now?
Record this day in history. August 23, 2019.

Not all the glass panels have been replaced yet but maybe they'll complete them all in the next few days?

Pretty amazing to think about working suspended from that arm!

They are finally starting to replace the missing windows on the north side.

Not sure if this is the right thread or not. New name. New sign.

That BMU (and working being suspended by it) still amazes me, and I'm gonna post that every time we get good new pics, as I know I'll always be amazed.
