Is that the "canopy" similar to the one Aura had so that the base of the building could open before the tower was complete? To catch any debris if it fell from above?

My understanding is that this climbing platform is for installing the glass/cladding. There will be a protective canopy installed in the first mechanical section (floors 17-18) .

Stupid me.

I thought the workers were going to be standing on those blue ‘platforms’ where in fact it appears the black ‘scaffolding’ hanging down from those blue platforms will be where the workers are. Cool.

Thanks! Those are great shots with the city as background. I much prefer a shot of our skyline from the north as opposed to the Lake as I feel that gives an incomplete picture of the true scope of the built up area. Just me.

going back to why the height increase was rejected, here is a picture of the park and the one in the same shot

I wasn’t satisfied with the drab grey skies from lunch time. So here’s some evening glow to remedy that.

The panels covering the columns are supposed to be lit up at night, right? I don't see any lighting built in, so I assume it will be added later?

There is conversation about that a page back...

...the tl,dr: We don't really know at this point until more cladding goes up.
