Amazing shot! Every time I see your user name under most recent post I scramble to click "newest post"

And it looks like even more glass is up on the north side in your shot.

when are they gonna paint the diagonal lines at the intersection? If they were painted maybe more people would use the diagonal crossings. Plus it would look a lot more pretty.

I don't think anyone is unaware of scramble crossings, the combination of the current paint scheme and the extra pedestrian signal make it fairly obvious. they need to make more of them though, such as Yonge / Eglinton.

I'm pretty sure they're leaving them the way they are.

Not sure if the question has already been addressed, but does anyone know where the curved glass panels are manufactured?

 

[NBGtect]

We are pretty sure they are made by Standard Bent Glass Corp

 

[DarkSideDenizen]

Not Acme Curved Windows Inc?

Great pic....LNahid2000. You have the best view to keep us up-to-date. Looks like 7th floor is now completed.
Hopefully by the end of May they'll be able to add 2-3 more floors.

Lots of new glass on the north side.
