That photo just oozes excitement!

If that was an Italian Tire gas station, you'd swear you were in Milan!

Indeed. Condo-photographing is at the top of most people's list while travelling. The first thing I do when I land in a new city is grab a condo guide and snap away. Always makes for a tremendously exciting trip. Huge, untapped market - condo snappers.

The Soul-Crushing District.

So much wonderful architecture in one photo! Kinda Pyongyangish without all the annoying red banners. Not to mention the top-notch street level. Real neighbourhood-y. That reminds me, I should drop off some dry cleaning and maybe get my nails done..

This is looking to be as cheesy as the Ripley name suggests. To be expected from a franchise aquarium whose 2 other locations are Gatlinburg TN and Myrtle Beach SC. Not exactly entering the realm of world acclaimed institutions with this.

Resemblance as in identical? To make matters worse, they hired an American firm. Surely there are locals who could have copied the Eaton logo. Or are there?

Awesome sidewalk! World Class public realm.

Could be used as a marketing slogan?

Charming corner! Needs more wires.

It will be difficult to top the extraordinary facade glue-job on the Winners building. That took vision.

Oops! I think I've accidentally stumbled upon historic photos from a 1973 issue of Urban Stalingrad.

Yes, but if you buy a house, you should be aware of the condition when you buy it. If an expenditure such as window replacement comes up, you can decide whether or not you want to replace it immediately or budget for it later - and live with the increased hydro bills in the meantime. Whatever...

Difficult to take anyone with $$ signs in their name seriously. I realize that this may represent the ultimate of chic amongst RE industry d-bags but even at that, why would I take a mere 2-$$ shill seriously? Yo blood! I needs me at least a 5-$$$$$ shill to gets me to ignore da REALITY of da...

*sigh* Let me rephrase: The owners of bank buildings can afford to re-clad their properties. And FCP was more a failing marble replacement than a window job. Plummeting chunks of marble = not good for business. While the patching or replacement of a single pane of condo glass would not require...

I don't think there's a need for yet another strip mall in Liberty Village. The current one is bad enough.

Those are examples of high quality bank and public buildings that were built to last and not hastily-constructed boom units built for quick flipping and specking. Banks can afford to reclad buldings, what happens when an entire condo has to vacate because their built-to-minimum-code investorbox...

Most of this junk won't last 100 years never mind 300. They'll probably have to begin replacing the envelopes within the next 20.

Another generic condo with the added bonus of a MacDonald's. Yay.

Yet another oversized 'blob on a corner'. They all look the same after a while.
