its not the volunteers, they take nice photos and they don't look into the rest of the story.

If you look urban TO has two threads to every project, one is a building thread for those of us who are interested in the engineering and watching the building go up if you are interested more in the finance side. There is a real estate thread for this as well and I believe these discussions are better place for the majority of people that participate in these threads are people interested in engineering and architecture, not in finances that is for the real estate thread

Just had the fun of watching a video on the Shanghai Tower. China's empty megatall anyone who is streaming about this building should go and watch building costs. 2.8 billion dollars and isn't occupied past the 50th floor but this is the only project that's a failure to them because they literally won't go outside to Toronto when looking at the grand scheme of things

That seems like a first, slab yesterday and columns today?

They have been doing that since the last mechanical floor.

I thought I read that they intend to install more permanent safety netting around the 1st mechanical level. My guess is the cladding scaffolding would have to ascend past the mech. level before this is possible?
That scaffolding seems to move quite slowly, so difficult to say how long.

Makes sense. No hurry. Brass Rail probably won’t be taking the ground floor space until after the new year at this point . . .
