After yesterday’s look at neighbouring 8 Elm, we return today to Yonge and Gerrard to check in on Concord Sky, where both the tower’s height and facade installation have advanced since UrbanToronto’s last update in February, 2026. Designed by Kohn Pedersen Fox Associates with architects—Alliance as Architect of Record, and with heritage preservation overseen by ERA Architects, the 85-storey mixed-use condominium tower from Concord Adex continues to rise above in Downtown Toronto.
A drone view in May, 2026 captured Concord Sky on the left alongside 8 Elm on the right. The reinforced concrete superstructure has climbed to approximately 30 storeys, with projecting rebar indicating preparations for the next pour. A concrete boom pump sits between the cranes. Below, curtain wall installation extends to roughly the 20th floor along the west elevation, where reflective vision glass gives the lower floors a sleek appearance. Several openings remain unfinished, marked by temporary wood infill panels.
From Yonge Street, the south elevation reveals curtain wall installation reaching approximately the 21st floor. Below the first major step-back, fins are in place, while exposed insulation remains visible beside the construction hoist. The step-back forms an open amenity level framed by exposed concrete columns and beams. Above, a cantilevered glazed volume projects from the south face and wraps around the east elevation.
A close-up of the current upper floors captures the emerging taper. Slab-edge formwork and perimeter safety screens mark active work on the next floor cycle. Along the south end, successive floors step inward as the floor-plate narrows, a transition reflected in the shifting column layout, including a newly introduced support column positioned farther south than those below. Several storeys lower, a cantilevered loading platform projects from the south elevation, providing material staging space for crews.
This month, from Yonge and Gerrard streets, a projecting volume on the north elevation begins at the 10th floor before wrapping around the east side. At street level, the retained heritage buildings remain supported by the steel retention structure stabilizing the Gerrard Building and Richard S. Williams Block during construction.
A view of the west elevation highlights the facade composition. Much of the envelope is enclosed with vision glass framed by fins extending across multiple storeys. The taller 10th-floor amenity level is distinguished by an expanded glazed section and elongated cladding panels. Projecting volumes and step-backs add depth to the massing. At the base, substantial portions of the podium remain in exposed concrete, with unfinished soffits and visible structural columns.
Once complete, Concord Sky will rise 300.2m, just clearing the threshold for ‘supertall’ status, and deliver 1,407 condominium units.
