Koops65,
if your models were any better I might mistake them for the real thing... It would be a shame for the city not to allow the height increase and you would have to adjust your model. Thanks for all your efforts in depicting the future!

You're quite welcome!

So it appears at some point they've removed those 4 banana yellow support thingies that where holding up where the diagonal columns connected under the main ceiling.

This may have been noted a few pages back...and as per usual, I completely missed that. But I am noting it now, for good or bad... >.<

Hey @UtakataNoAnnex (and anyone else who is wondering), those yellow thingies are called shoring posts. Just like shoring walls are temporary supports for holding back the earth around an excavation, shoring posts are temporary supports for holding such things as a concrete slab until it has sufficiently cured.

Banana yellow support thingies is more descriptive though... >.>

Any hints on when the next pour is going to be? Looks about ready

Someone mentioned it a couple of pages back. But it looks like the hanger pieces from the corners to the super-column are required before they can pour the next level.

They've kept the forms away from the corners of the lower level, which we suspect is to allow for the installation of the hangers.

Went out for groceries and grabbed a few shots from the ground.

 

[MoObserves]

That ground level space though!

@Benito, you're gonna have such a great view of things when they eventually reach your level. Can't wait!

One Bloor East dominates the view east from Bloor West Village, particularly around dawn, and I cannot wait for this One to rise in front of it.

Here it was this morning. Unfortunately, it can be hard to capture the effect well since I use my phone instead of a camera with a zoom:

Incidentally, this is also my thousandth post. It is nice to finally earn my promotion to a senior member. It only took me seven years...

The impact this will have on the east/west view of the skyline will be astounding.

 

[Lovestallthings]

I still am in awe of the main retail space.

I’ve followed this thread for awhile but just made an account to post. I’m very excited about this project and hope the city approves the height increase. Can’t wait to see this thing when it’s done.
