TEK Tower (30 Francis) | 45 fl | U/C

Good points. The 45th floor does indeed look different in some renders (and it might imply 44 is the top floor you can live on?) on tek's "views" page:

Generally municipalities will only include floors where there space fit for human occupancy. Hence mechanical penthouses aren't ever included in floor count but floors which are half amenity half mechanical are, obviously there are some exceptions but this is too standard of a building to have any. So given the permit says 45 it's in all likelihood going to be 45 floors, the only potential thing that might make it appear as 44 and not 45 from the exterior is if there is a mezzanine. That's why Vive's CTV development got a bump of one floor because the parking mezzanine was included after the city looked at it. By the end of this week it should be fairly obvious if it's 45 or not given there were forms there on Thursday.

So everyone can count along from home:
