Well I always thought Absolute should be two, I mean there are two seperate buildings... but that bumps another vancouver off the list so I'm ok with sky being two and Absolute being one!

The taller tower is the South Tower which is just a couple floors above ground with no glass cladding.

But the North Tower (further along-with some glass cladding) should give us an idea of how the project will look as it rises.

I know you're trying to keep Montreal on the list Caltrane, but why are there 24 buildings listed on the 11-30 list?
If Absolute is 2 separate buildings, why aren't they listed as #13 and #17?

BTW, despite my questions above, it's great to see Canada having so many skyscrapers U/C, GO CANADA! (Can't wait for more, and taller, buildings U/C soon!)

ok I'll update the list - Absolute World as 2 buildings.

The list will go to 40.

BTW: the reason there are 24 buildings on a list in which there should only be 20 is because I've made the adjustment to accomodate for ties. As you can see. - And yes I wanted to make the list as inclusive as possible of all cities and buildings across the country.

There's no need for affirmative action for the big M. She'll be back in the standings in a couple years with a rack of twins of unprecedented proportions!

You know you'll be waiting a long time. - And this is so much more fun than the proposal thread. (At least on those days Toronto isn't dropping 5 new proposed buildings over 200 Meters in one day)

Don't worry I'll make the list go to 40!!!

We have the buildings to support this. No worries!!

Re: Fairmont Pacific Rim, it has been scaled down by the city to 140m... that is the final height.
It will be a girthy bugger though at 800 000 sqft

Can you see the 15th and 16th floors poking out, with the columns of the 17th wraped in red?
