I find it very cool, judging by recent photos of the crown, that they've poured what looks like solid concrete walls that actual emulate and finish the curved pattern at the top... Once the scaffolding comes down, we should see the final result. I guess that is how they will achieve the opaque look that will blend with the roof fins by painting those walls white? then covering them with glass? - just speculation.

Do you know how many cities would love to have a downtown skyline like this? And yet this is just one of many clusters Toronto has, and it's not even the largest cluster. Toronto's terrific(!)

Wow--that shot not only shows this building's height, but how much density could be added to this area. It's interesting, because depending on your viewpoint Yonge/Bloor looks either very dense or rather sparse.
