They aren't wasting any time on this. The great thing about the podium being done already, is the tower will go up quickly.

So great to see this one progressing. Even if we only get one tower for now

Great photo! What's with the scaffolding on the west end of the site? Wasn't there two weeks ago.

I'd bet form work for the tower portion.

Not necessarily doubting you, but it seems weird to do it that way if they’re building the second tower. At 121m, you’d need a raft slab or some significant piles, and it’d certainly need to be lower than the height of those forms. Why pour the at grade slab without excavating underneath? It’s common for top-down construction, but that's never been done here. Also look at the location of the site office along 5th, it would be basically under the second tower. Whatever is going on, it’s interesting.
