I got it off Vanlentino at SSC.

Sounds right, when I saw the city report for an all office tower at 45 stories, I guessed 200 meters.

RBC Centre at 42 storeys is 183 meters so it does makes sense.

In any case: I'm sure confirming info will follow.

Looking west at the newly installed podium glass with Metro Hall in the background.

A render of the building and in comparison with the newly installed glass visible behind the render on the top right. I thought that they were going to use concrete or metal panels so I was surprised to see the glass being installed. Eventually near the top will be a large RBC logo.

Northeast corner of the building at Simcoe and Wellington.

From Union Station looking west, Royal York Hotel to the right and Simcoe Place to the left of the RBC Centre with Metro Hall behind it.

From the corner of Bay and Adelaide looking southeast, looks like they are building a small ramp.

Fresh concrete has been poured next to the north wall of the National Club.

Looking west.
