The player I refer to in my watermarks celebrates his birthday today. I have also drawn a connection between his star sign and the team he used to play for.
 
Photos taken today, Friday (Nov. 29). A lot of movement since my last update post last Friday. Though the centre core still looks like it is at the 4th mechanical level on floors 77 & 78, just about everything else has gone up, save for the crane and external elevators. The blue scaffolds on top are up a level, and we can see level 74 emerging from underneath. Though the blue forms below working on the corners have not moved up, the 8th set of hangers has now been installed so the corners for level 65 are complete. And the black Rail Climbing Systems (RCSs) installing the skin are all up. The top-most visible level of glass now installed is for level 49, and the east RCS is also now at that level, the north, west and mini-RCS on the south side have moved up to levels 49, 48 and 47 respectively. They were at 48, 47, 47 and 45 last week.

A full set of shots, starting with the view to the south on Yonge Street, by Dundonald. Some shots from Charles a little east of Yonge, then from Yonge a bit north of Charles. The view from in front of Holt Renfrew on Bloor west of Yonge, then a few including a high-contrast one from Cumberland east of Bay. The "classic" shot from the NE corner of Yonge and Bloor, and another a bit east of there on the back entrance stairs. Then, to the west from Bloor around Bellair; Queen's Park Cres. W, north of Hoskin; and finally from Bloor east of Dundas, the Bloor & Dufferin development visible to the right of the tower.

One Bloor West (The One) "time-lapse"

From October, 2020, as above-ground construction started in earnest at The One (1 Bloor W.) in Toronto. More or less a weekly photo usually taken on a Friday, with some gaps during early-on construction hiatuses. The initial photographs are from 2015, during demolition at the site, 2018, during...

I have a theory that because of how slow this building is being constructed, pinnacle is gonna top out like a month or two after this one, it's being built super fast compared to this, I expect this to top out by like January or February 2025 and pinnacle surely won't be too far behind, its pushing 200m and a new crane lift is coming soon so 🤷‍♂️

Closer to 175m, the halfway point. Prestige next door is 216m for quick reference.

Even at a productive pace of 1 floor (~3m height) added each week, it would not top out for another 13-14 months.
