I can see it! When I moved into my apartment in 2008, none of the tallest towers were there, but look now, and in between two of the new condos, I am just now able to see a small corner of One Bloor (see picture). I live at 77 Howard street aka The Toronto, at Bloor and Parliment, on the 20th floor facing north. These pics are my view to the far left, never thought I'd get to see One Bloor, once topped out, I'll be able to see the top floor too, awesome! It will be like Aura, no matter where you are in the city, you'll be able to see it, like a gigantic monolith reaching for the sky, dwarfing every other tower near by, for now at least. It will be interesting to see what the proposed "The One" will do to the Yonge and Bloor area, which is now become a separate skyline in of itself. But with all the proposed towers in Yorkville and along Yonge down to Queen, damn, it's going to beocome one giant skyline from Sheppard and Yonge all the way down to the lake. Sounds ridiculous, but if only I had a time machine, just imagine how our city will look by 2050? I'm sorry for being off topic, but, just for fun, I posted a few pics, on my Facebook page, from various vantage points, of our skyline, but I photoshopped out the CN Tower, and asked my friends and followers, most of whom live here, to identify the city in the pics. I was astounded that only about 30% guessed correctly, most common answers? NYC, Chicago, LA, and even Hong Kong (most of these friends are PhD's, and/or highly educated professionals). Hard to believe that so few could recognize their own city! But it's just my point, projects like One Bloor and hundreds others have totally altered the face of our city, awesome, isn't it?
