Viewed from the southwest corner of University and Dundas, above, construction is now visible above the roofline of the Maclean-Hunter Building. A white concrete boom pump between the cranes facilitates pours at upper levels. At grade, work continues on the widened sidewalk and sheltered arcade along Dundas, which will double pedestrian space while also including a new entrance to St Patrick subway station.<\/p>\n
Looking southeast to the northwest corner of the site along University Avenue, above, with a closer look below, work to reinstall a roof over retail frontages is underway. Red shoring posts support the heritage walls above before new final supporting walls are added, In front, heritage stone cladding and green marble trim will be restored to frame the structure, while a wrapped pallet of construction material sits in the foreground.<\/p>\n
Looking west from a nearby structure, construction progress now stands at 11 storeys. On the left, the preserved Beaux-Arts facade of the Maclean Publishing Company Building is visible, with white tarps in place where decorative spandrel panels will be reinstalled after restoration. A step-back above the eight-storey heritage base marks the start of new height. Decking is in place for the 12th floor slabs on the right, with concrete slab placement finished on the left. Two cranes operate at the north and south ends.<\/p>\n Looking southwest toward the northeast corner where earlier buildings were demolished, glazing is being installed along the second and third floors on the new podium levels. Blue protective wrap is still affixed to some windows, while white tarp covers others. Steel anchor rods below mark a future canopy location. Above, the 10th-floor parapet defines where new construction steps back. The south crane is installing a new mast segment for the hoist, which continues to rise.<\/p>\n This close-up of the north elevation shows newly installed curtainwall spanning the second and third floors, with vision glazing panels framed by bronze-coloured mullions. Blue weatherproofing is visible along the slab edge.<\/p>\n On the east wall, curved concrete slab edges define the podium’s contemporary massing. Dark bronze-toned and textured aluminum panels have been installed on the second floor and partially on the third, abutting the restored heritage wall. Adjacent to the hoist, curved curtainwall glazing follows the curved slab profile.<\/p>\n Once complete, The United BLDG will reach a height of 184.85m and contain 743 condominium units.\u00a0<\/p>\n UrbanToronto’s previous update<\/a> was in April, 2025.\u00a0<\/p>\n UrbanToronto will continue to follow progress on this development, but in the meantime, you can learn more about it from our Database file, linked below.
