I heard from a good source that construction started today ;) Will they be done by March 2013 as promised?

Welcome Moxy. When we picked out our finishes, the design lady said they are starting next month and still on schedule to be done on time (March 2013). Seems aggressive to me, but I don't really have an idea for how long townhomes take. They mentioned getting the permits from the city of...

Hi - I'm happy to answer this. 1. The development was nearly 2 years delayed. We bought early 2007 and was told August 2008 occupancy. Our actual occupancy date was in April 2010. I expected delays, but i didn't appreciate being kept in the dark when it was obvious August 2008 was a pipe...

Nice! Coincides with nice review in the globe and mail today:

Not to much action on this project in here. Interesting piece in the star about this project: http://www.thestar.com/living/realestate/condos/article/1117092--new-townhomes-on-the-block According to Paul Johnston's website, only two of the larger units remain...

www.liveatblock.com I believe the official launch is this weekend. Any thoughts out there on this one? The builder is sort of an unknown entity downtown. Looks like they saw the success of trinity towns down the street and just brought the whole team (Wengle/CicconiSimone/Paul Johnston) over...

Thompson Residences is the new development on the old Travelodge site. 550 Wellington is the name of the project containing the Thompson Hotel and the nearly completed condo project (55 Stewart). From my understanding this is how things will go down: 55 Stewart residences will have full use...

PSR is owned by Freed....so I'm sure they can alter whatever clauses are in the contract to get the sale done.

If you contact the guys at Private Service Reality they probably have a mountain of units waiting to be assigned. http://www.privateservicerealty.com/

They delayed all the PDIs a couple weeks ago. My PDI was scheduled for today, and it got pushed back until Tuesday. My occupancy got pushed from Feb 28 to March 4. I think the rule is that they have 5 days grace period with 3 weeks to the original occupancy, so they opted to take advantage of...

www.freeddevelopments.com got a makeover. Lookin' good! There are some renders of this project I had not seen before.

"March 2010 will see the group expanding beyond the US with Thompson Toronto opening its doors to the vibrant Canadian city. The 100-room hotel on Wellington Street will survey Toronto’s dynamic fashion and design district offering stunning interiors with a quintessential Thompson vibe by Studio...

Very Nice! I guess because they will be entitled to use all the services the hotel across the street offers? If you register your confirmation email gives you a better idea of what the building will look like facing King.

Is it me, or is the ceiling on the top floor more stained than would be ideal? It sort of looks sloppy IMO.

Thats as per plan though isn't it? I dont see how that could be a surprise?
