Brookfield Place, 247 meters, and it's incredible glass. Really can't wait to see the crown lighting feature!

I think they surprised a lot of people with how well they are turning out. What looked like a bit of a mess in renders has turned out to be an interesting pattern on 2 very tall towers.

When One Bloor is complete, how will we Skyscraper nerds occupy ourselves?

At that point our most favorite projects will be just holes in the ground for the most part.

What about Edmonton's Stantec? Almost as high as One Bloor and just starting to rise.

I agree with the posters above - telus sky and stantec, as well as Massey. Personally I think there are about 10x too many One Bloor posts. Its been covered in every stage and angle more than any other building I can think of. Can we take it easy till the balcony glass is zipped up?
