^I like your enthusiasm. I wonder if, assuming One Yonge gets the green light, all 6 or 7 massive towers will be constructed at the same time. That would be simultaneously awesome and a logistical nightmare.
I think a tower or two will be cancelled from one yonge.
The two towers will contain reinforced concrete cores with structural steel floor framing and exterior columns. The below-grade structure consists of reinforced concrete columns, slab and wall construction. Crews will demolish sections of underground parking nearby to accommodate the East Tower’s footprint and five-storey basement, a hole that will take five months to excavate. Developing back up to grade will take six to seven months.
Will Brookfield Place be steel construction? If so, could it finish before One Bloor does?
Yes Brookfield will be steel frame, concrete core.

Ah, gotcha. And, my mistake, it's 6 buildings. An overview at UT lists a completion date of 2017, which is extremely ambitious, if not impossible.
2017 is impossible. Even if they started construction right now a 90 floor building would need at least 4 years to complete. It will likely break ground in 2016/ or 2017. And be completed in 2020/2021.
Looks like its actually 4th, Aura's probably taller than Trumps roof (827ft) now.
True. To be fair I was only looking at completed buildings. And hopefully it won't be many more years until a few more towers knock Trump further down the orde of height in Toronto.
2022 will be an awesome year. to see all those towers go up will be cool. Toronto will have so much density and some supertall might be undercon....... or proposed that will be cool. time will change it all.
