Based on the webcam it looks like the crane is at its maximum height.
It would be interesting to see what it looks like from the waterfront or the Citadel. The library itself should be fairly visible once complete since there aren't many tall buildings around it.
Library foundation to be poured soon

Work on the $55-million central library in Halifax has reached a milestone, says the municipality’s project manager.
While excavation of the site at Spring Garden Road and Queen Street began in September, a crane was mounted there recently, signalling that work is progressing well, said Terry Gallagher, Halifax Regional Municipality’s manager of facility development.

"There’s no such thing as bad weather, just bad clothing.”
Yeah I know its 5 floors but those floor heights could vary widely. Im just commenting because that looks like a crane that would be used for atleast a 10 story building.
The cantilever where the "living room" is going, is actually going to be the equivalent height of 2 floors, with high ceilings. I imagine the other floors will have high-ish ceilings, as well.
