Yet another tower with very short ceiling heights. Other proposed 68 floor towers are between 217 and 242 metres.

And how many elevators will this 'luxury' condo have? 4 for 700+ units? Perhaps because of the low ceiling heights, some residents are expected to take the stairs (and probably will be forced to, given the waiting time for the elevators). No need to have a fitness facility then ... everyone wins!

68 floors at 188m? I get that some levels are hotel which tend to have shorter floor heights but still seems short relative to the amount of floors.

That number may refer to the top of the top inhabited floor without including the mechanical penthouse... as we sometimes get that number from developers before we actually see the documents. I'm hoping they'll be accessible soon!

The current regular floor-to-floor height difference in the 49-storey version is 2.850m. We shall see if that changes once we have the new docs!

The 49-storey version has four elevators for the hotel portion and six for the condo portion. We shall see if that changes too!

And @Northern Light, the building has a wedge shape above the 20th floor to respond to the helicopter flight path restrictions, so I don't believe that it has been exempted from anything. We still have to wait and see if the latest changes are approved of course...

Interesting story; I'm bit underwhelmed by the Missoni influence here.

I'm going to have to go back and look at the helicopter flight paths again to see how this one apparently escaped restriction.

I'll bring this render into the thread:

And this one of the podium:

The potential height increase would lie right outside the flight path, as seen here:

Works kind of like a Massey Tower scenario where the boundary essentially forms the southern limit of the tower.

...I was going to say that wedge shape look seems to be flight path inspired.
