Yes, buildings cast shadows. They do this regardless of how tall they are. However, the earth continues to rotate about its axis.
Used to live in the tower at Laurier and Bay, low level north-facing unit, right across from another highrise. There was...not a lot of sun there, WFH would have been rough.
