No they are erecting the steel crown to reach the final TO height of the structure. It'll stick out a couple stories about the current roof height.

That's awesome news! It's already looking really tall with the steel they've erected since the core topped out. It definitely looks like the tallest in the city now.

Hold on folks..... I was merely guessing about this 256 meters (the crown I mean)! It would seem that the report of the height of the crown is just starting, would make it a little taller than 247 meters! I hope it's considerably taller, but who knows! Maybe someone can explain further.

And how difficult will it really be for the Stantec builders/designers to respond in kind if they wish? Hell, that thing might just barely be at ground level, plenty of time, eh.

Haha, that just made my morning. I have my doubts the building will be much taller, will be watching to see them lifting the steel though!
