Photos taken today, Friday (April 28). The second truss now installed on the east side, more of the platforms added to the north side, and the blue forms at the top moved to allow the installation of the third truss on the west side. (A different system to be installed on the south side because of the crane.) Most of the cladding now also installed on the east side.

Also included, the latest "time-lapse" photo for my Flickr album Oct 2020-Apr 2023:

Now that we're seeing more of the finished look, it's looking very '80s

Yeah, 80s are very trendy the last few years. I'm seeing the same thing in car design.

This morning. Yonge closed to motorists between Charles & Bloor as another platform is lifted

Even the protection panels used here are sleek looking and are definitely a huge upgrade from the typical “garbage” bags used in other sites

I thought those have a more advanced purpose than the bags though...

I know these will be used as a platform and not just for protection from the elements but just bought that this project’s methods and materials are not what you see in a typical condo construction.

Photos taken Sunday (April 30). Came down to the site during the heavy rain on Sunday afternoon as they were raising the fifth platform section to hang from the truss on the east side. I was told there will be nine sections to a side, with additional corner sections so the exterior will be completely covered, save for the south side with the crane. I think there are some issues now with raising the truss on the west side, and there may be delays there.
The sequence shows the section being hoisted up, hung by a yellow frame, called the "banana," with the banana slid into the truss. Those specks are rain droplets. Then, the section is rolled into position along the banana, secured and the attachments to the banana are released and it is pulled away. The final shot shows the five new sections on the east side now in place, all added this weekend, with two more sections to be added on each side, and a corner section to connect to the north face.

They look better than PERMANENT cladding on some downtown condos.

I do not unfortunately.
