^yeah maybe. Nice pic. I have not gone up the CN tower for a couple of years (been there, done that at least 12 times...I only went up again to introduce the view to my (then 4-year old) daughter).

I hate the Rogers Building. I hate the Rogers Logo. I hate Rogers.

You are not the only one. Rogers and Bell are Canada's twin plagues.

Absolutely agree. Can't wait for more telecommunications companies come to Canada to give more competition.
As for the Rogers building, I don't hate it as much as I hate the company. In fact if it were 45-50 floors high and didn't have the large Rogers sign I would quite like it.

As for Aura, it is looking quite a beast from the CN Tower.

Apparently the Penthouse floors have been completed. So now the only part left of the development is the Mechanical levels, which are about the equivalent of about 6 floors.

Has the penthouse been sold yet? Or is it likely to be subdivided into multiple apartments in order to sell?

aura looks like a beast on the skyline. it reminds me of Gulliver because many buildings around it are shorter.

You can see the core still extending up quite substantially. Still more height to come!

Construction seems to be slowing down as they reach the top. Wonder what takes so long when they get so close to topping out?

Change in floorplates, design and construction materials perhaps.
