The floor plans only go to the 65th floor however the website states "temporarily sold out" for some units, so perhaps there's always been the plan to add a few more floors if sales warrant.
As far as i know this was the last application to city planning..

Application: New Building Status: Under Review
Location: 1 BLOOR ST E

Ward 27: Toronto Centre-Rosedale
Application#: 10 299436 BLD 00 NB Accepted Date: Nov 19, 2010
Project: Mixed Use/Res w Non Res New Building
Description: Permit to construct new mixed use building - containing commercial residential - 2 floors commercial (with p1 level commercial concourse) 67 Residential storeies - 732 residential units - 6 levels below grade parking. - 531 parking spaces - 52 Visitor and 479 residential
So that's 2 retail, 67 residential and presumably 1 mechanical; i.e. 70 floors.
Hah, I knew GG wouldnt have the kahonies to go to 70 floors - what a shame. This site deserves a more spectacular building. Ice II, will be taller and there are number of projects almost as tall or taller in the immediate area. Disappointing.
Does anyone else see the humour in the fact that the Penthouse is going to be on Floor 69?
What is taller in the immediate area?
They will probably skip 13, so I am pretty sure the penthouse will be level 70.
