One has to ask why the metal panels (the siding) should need to be repaired - the Building is not yet even complete. The standard of installation seems to have left much to be desired and this need for repair so soon after installation is not an encouraging sign. Are there other (less visible) defects elsewhere? I foresee many ongoing and expensive problems for the eventual Condo Board(s) and the Owners.Has anyone recently looked at the south elevations (facing The Esplanade)? I believe they're repairing all of the metal panels.
I believe the window and metal panel systems are in good working order and will not cause any problems for the condo or its owners in the future. The contractor is working on the building elevations to fix oil canning, gaps between panels, and other details, as far as I can tell.One has to ask why the metal panels (the siding) should need to be repaired - the Building is not yet even complete.

Does that mean that they are replacing oil-canned panels with heavier gauge aluminum so that they don't oil-can? If so, good!I believe the window and metal panel systems are in good working order and will not cause any problems for the condo or its owners in the future.

I'm not sure but I think they are doing re and re.Does that mean that they are replacing oil-canned panels with heavier gauge aluminum so that they don't oil-can? If so, good!

There's only one more floor, the 17th.I think they're almost to the top of the podium. Maybe 2-3 more levels to go?
