i know

!.. thats what happens when a tower isn't seen (either its at or below ground) for the longest time!

you stop paying attention to it!... the podium levels will take extra long so i don't see a street wall forming till mid to the end of summer

Davis137 · #**124** Posted **May 27, 2010, 3:15 AM**

Yeah true. The same could be said for Trump for the longest time too...seemed stuck on the first 5-7 levels, but now it's going up like crazy, and I'm sure Shangri-La will do the same thing...

Looks as though it's already upto the 4th or 5th floor in some parts of your pictures...this building is going to go up really fast I think...

mmm... i think its only up about 1.5/2 stories now... Its rising steadily though... the ground floors are a pain.. they take the longest.

Shangri-la by Davin at UT:

The University Ave. Streetwall looks amazing in this shot! especially since it slants inwards where shangri-la is! and its cool how MLS looks like its apart of the streetwall! ahh... that strip of university is one of my favourite streetwalls in toronto

It's getting taller, they're pouring a slab on the south west corner today.

wow 4 pages back, 214 meter skyscraper any city would gladly take... and its old news, and no updates for almost 2 full weeks.

I just love URBAN TORONTO, build it and they'll come.

Shangri la the backend.
