Huh? Where do you see cladding?

It seems to be going up a floor per week, maybe more. They're not wasting anytime here.

It has actually been one floor over the past 2 weeks, if you examine the last 2 updates

Awaiting the first piece of cladding any day now. Hopefully it looks better than Cinema Tower's.

Don't need to see the cladding to know it's curtainwall. Look at the concrete, they've left pockets along the slab edge to receive the anchors that will be holding the curtainwall. Those pockets wouldn't be there if this was going to be window wall.

Interesting, thanks!

who knows, this could very well be one of those stupidly rare buildings that not only turns out as well as it's render, but even better.

Glass is up on the north side fronting Adelaide. No pictures but figured I'd spread the word so we can get some.

Hard to tell but looks like large panes of glass and dark mullions. A promising combination.

And thanks Albert.

Working in the area this afternoon, walked by to snap some shots of my own. Here are some closeups to add to AlbertC's pics, including some spandrel sections on the laneway side I noticed.

The glass is very reflective, and reminds me of that being used on Yorkville Plaza right now.

 

[SP!RE]

The spandrel looks well-matched, like that at The MET.

Otherwise these pics. of the glazing remind me of the first shots we saw of the Murano's cladding.
