Ha. Yup was wondering about that too. UHaul has been pretty accommodating when IN8 has needed space for slip forms, skyjacks, etc. I guess IN8 just asks nicely? I'm surprised as it seems like it's UHaul's property?

Good question. Does it look like Windows/glass will be behind the gaps in renders on Google image search? https://torontocondoinvestments.ca/project/tek-tower/

I wonder if they’re going to paint or stain these precast concrete panels given in the renderings they look quite dark compared to the very light ones being installed?

I'm sure they have an agreement where they take some necessary space at particular intervals. It seems it's not needed just now so UHaul is parking close in.
