Photos taken today, Friday (July 14). Scaffolding was completely removed from the NE corner of the mechanical level, mostly removed on the NW corner, when I was by this afternoon, so some shots showing the first "notch" in the building completely visible! And a shot of the crane side.

Correct me if I am wrong, but now they seem to be at level 35, which corresponds to 124.17m if I have the right plans. Which means 1 Bloor W has perhaps now surpassed the height of the Royal York Hotel, which held the title of Toronto's tallest building until 1931 when surpassed by Commerce Court North. (CCN, at145m, held "tallest" title until 1967.)

My latest "time-lapse" photo added to the album on Flickr showing building progress Oct 2020-July 2023:

I believe the walls and columns they poured on 7/14 are for the 34th floor, so yes, they are now forming the slab for 35.
 
My apologies if I already asked this in an earlier post. Does anyone know if the concrete pump is able to lift the mix all the way up or if there are several intermediate pumps every few floors that boost the pressure?
