Looking very nice.

Wow look at the different between the 2 sides.. one white and one minty.

caltrane74 · #**344** Posted **Dec 1, 2010, 4:39 PM**

I didn't even notice that. Good eye.

IT must be catching the light different on that side.

Traynor would love this. LOL!

I imagine a situation like that would result in Canadian Mind sort of throwing up a little into his mouth and then swallowing it, on account of how limited the sea foam green colour is from that angle.

It is a pretty ugly colour though.

Your right Cal, from some angles the tiles do look a little green, mainly when it's overcast. In direct sunlight, the tiles look white.

Nice Shots Still.

Thats a neat shot. I like how he managed to get Trump in the picture to.

Excellent prediction... Asshole.

Sea foam green just doesn't look right when you can't see through it. Looks like Gumby after he's been left out in the sun for 2 weeks.

See-through Sea foam green isn't much better, either.

Looking good. I've been staring at it the last few times I've been in TO, it's really eye catching.

With Trump going up and the reclad going down, it will be interesting to see when both projects reach a midpoint.

Good to see some progress on this tower. Haven't taken a look at this thread in a long time.

Going down!

Wow, the elevator hoists, appear to be coming down as fast as the movable scaffolding.
