Wow! Seems a little early to be putting in super expensive glass.

colemonkee · #**442** Posted **Jul 8, 2021, 2:04 AM**

Yes, but the retail spaces at the base should be ready to open approximately 7 years before the topping out of the tower itself...

In all seriousness, I hope the pouring of the transfer floor is a harbinger of quicker floor increases.

Looks like the transfer slab big pour may have finally started.

They also appear to be covering up a ‘few’ million dollars of glass installed at grade for the future tenant.

Cladding on the rear of the south podium underway (an exact match for the cladding ‘mock-up’ seen in the press 2 years ago).

Unitized curtainwall will adorn most of the tower.

One of my fav rioted rising in Toronto right now. I remember awhile back that this one applied for a height increase. Was the increase approved and was their any controversies about it?

No word yet on whether the height increase is approved... but presumably the engineering has been factored in to accommodate 9 more floors

After the huge transfer slab concrete pour, lots of new steel work.

Question on the programming/design of the tower: it appears that the core is off to the side, but that it stops ~5 floors up. Is that core for the office portion only, or is there a transfer floor for the residential portion, where residents ride up the side core, then walk to a central core that starts on the 5th or 6th floor? It's not easy to tell how this will work, but it doesn't look like that core on the side goes all the way up.

Pretty sure you are correct ... elevators up to level 6 and then walk to the hotel and residential lobbies (see drawing below).

The 'central core' of the tower as you called it, begins on level 5 (the transfer slab just poured) with an elevator pit, and then the hotel and residential elevators begin on level 6 (see second drawing).

Given the hybrid exoskeleton structural engineering I suspect the tower's elevator core won't need to be anything like a traditional office tower core.

Not sure I've helped lol. Maybe someone better-versed can chime in ;-)

Note: this elevation is looking west just to show where the tower elevators begin (the 5 levels seen on the left of the drawing are part of the Yonge Street podium, not the hotel/residential elevator core discussed above).

Progress today.

No doubt, but does that imply that the developer is just waiting on a formality of approval or is there serious risk that there is a chance the increase isn't approved and that developer would have spent additional costs than it had too.

Maldive, that explanation is perfect! Strange design. Seems like a not very efficient setup, especially for the residential units.

I sometimes wonder if the entire design premise (the giant open retail space at grade) was driven by Apple $$$. Hopefully residents and guests will be checking their iPads and not mind the extra exercise.

P.S. an angle looking south: elevators on the right, Yonge podium (avec crane) at the top of the photo.

There was some discussion on Urban Toronto with some estimates that the Apple Retail space would be worth about 30% of the project's value as they are likely to be paying extremely premium rental rates. So it sort of makes sense. It's also likely why the glazing installation is starting so early for the space, Mizrahi probably wants the tenant in ASAP to get that rent money rolling and help with cash-flow.

And yes - residents have to transfer in the Sky-Lobby on the 6th floor. This condition is unusual but not unheard of in other buildings.
