Should fly up once it reaches the tower floors. Very anxious to see the cladding here!

There's a unit for rent with a good view of this project. DM me if you want the listing!

That is the most pale red brick I’ve ever seen.

It's just prefab concrete they add the colour after. Look at the pinnacle Toronto east thread for an example they are adding the colour to it now.

That’s so weird! Almost like a brick relief pattern where the grout lines are extruded and the brick sections are recessed. Very interested to see the final colour treatment here.

It looks exactly like that in real life. I wouldn't even call it brick, it looks more like a tile or breeze block. I like it.

It will be interesting to see what it looks like painted red. I don't mind it either. Precast bricks have always been a bit too skeuomorphic for my liking. If it's not actual individually cast bricks (as some are, and look great), I might actually prefer a differently textured and painted precast.

Are they planning on painting that? I mean, it would match the renders if they did...for good or bad.

Close up of the texture. I like it! But I hope they’re actually planning on painting it red.
