I think that the setback and curvature of the upper portion of the building is a lot more noticeable now than it was before. This building is getting really tall now...standing alone amongst the rest of the neighbourhood around it already.

This is yet another piece of greatness for TdotO.
But once concern has me worried. I can't help noticing some visual discontinuity in the balcony sections and the spacing between window glass in the last pic. Is this intended or something to be fixed?

lol, never heard that one

I have a friend that always ask me if you going out or doing some bidydy-bang-bang?, meaning if I'll be seeing my girlfriend instead... I can't wait to use the phrase: man, I sure would bidydy-bang-bang that ba-doink-a-doink!

It does look off. It might be the way the sun is hitting the glass, but I can't tell.

I've noticed that as well. It looks like a few of the floors have higher ceiling heights than others. Time will tell if that look persists. Hopefully not...

Some of the floors are different sizes. It will definitely persist. Hopefully it just won't be continued higher up the tower.

The spacing difference is also very noticeable looking at the Western side of the building.

Should start seeing the Eastern curve soon - exciting! I can't wait for that eyesore (Hoops, RBC, etc) at 460 Yonge to be redeveloped.
