Toronto The One | 328.4m | 91s | Mizrahi Developments | Foster + Partners

Didn’t know raccoons lived right in the city. Huh learned something new. Though I suppose in a city there’s many places they could hide out.
I don’t know if I can still find the photo, but the tower crane operator at L Tower, who posted regularly here on UT, once put up a photo of a raccoon looking at him in his cab ... more than 200 m above ground level!

Can really get a sense of scale of the ground floor space now that some of the supports are gone.

That's typical of this city another black, white, blue, green, gray looking building facade! And the owner seems to be proud and smiling in front of the camera over this! Seen in the photo on the previous page.
He is proud and smiling, which he should be, because he is going to build the tallest building in Canada and the country's first supertall despite having humble beginnings.

It's not like we build a new tallest every 2 years. The last tallest building was built in 1975 and he is going to break that long held 46 year old record.

I'm proud to see this building become a supertall too. I've also wanted it to climb a little taller. And have a revolving dining area on top in the Yorkville area etc. But standing next to the 1 Bloor East tower's creamy white balconies seen in the photos up above . It would have been nice to see a much darker shade of white on this building's cladding to create a colour difference between the two towers .
