    Nice. Did you also take pictures of downtown? Would like to see! Edit: Why is Monde just a block?

    I think P1 might still have to remain partly public, as the residential elevators skip P1, and only go to P2/P3. The only elevator to go to P1 is the office elevator, which is not private residential. Since the current use for P1 is public, the private elevators skip it. Another elevator to P1...

    Did they take down the water tower? Edit: I think I see the shadow of it?

    Whoops, misunderstanding. Photos can look better, if edited. I attempted to edit your photo. And added your watermark… Credit: UtakataNoAnnex

    Our condo board does not own the parking, and whenever I ask questions about it, most of the time they do not know, as they have nothing to do with it. I’ll just wait for the resident newsletter and see what the lawyers have to say about it.

    Some buildings do look good, like CIBC Square. It looks really nice. You know, you could also contribute to older buildings, like 25 The Esplanade ;) On its thread of course.

    If I had to choose between the designs for this site, I would rather choose the original one, with the gold fins. That at least looked better than what is currently proposed. Preferably, I would not choose any, and rather keep the current building. Another parking question… Would we just keep...

    Today. 33rd floor almost done. They finally installed a window on the 5th floor. And got rid of two glass panels on the 8th floor… Photos from yesterday: 33rd floor starting to peak. Photos from today. Glass panel being lifted. From the 7th floor. Down to the 5th floor. It’s...

    Going back to the history of the parking lot, were the units for 25 really sold with the parking lot and then bought back by Avro? In their welcome book from when the building finished, they mention this: “The parking garage located beneath the building is not part of the Condominium...

    This is how the site currently looks like and how it will look like. And how views from sorrounding buildings will be affected. Thanks to steveve’s 3D model on Precondo’s website. First, current site. How it will look like. @mburrrrr this will be your future view if it starts...

    Ever since the hotel opened in 1987, it was always a Novotel. I don’t think the lease will end with Novotel any time soon, judging how they have always been running the hotel since it opened.

    Yes, Silver is the owner and it’s in their hands if they want the development to continue. Republic is the developer, which will actually develop the building.

    The city renovated the hotel after they leased it from Silver Hotel Group to use it as a homeless shelter. Not sure what Silver Hotel Group is thinking about this proposal. Currently, they own the whole hotel and parking. Would Silver Hotel Group continue to own the hotel portion of the new...

    @mburrrrr BINGO! Found something very important. I’m reading the book from Avro Group welcoming new residents from the 80s when the building opened. AUTOMOBILE CONTROL The parking garage located beneath the building is not part of the Condominium Corporation. The Board of Directors and the...

    I’m reading through the Avro Group book from the 80s. Hopefully there’s more info I haven’t learned about. Already learned something, the Cafe Nicole was originally a Cafe Le Arcades. Some pages: DEAR RESIDENT: THIS MANUAL HAS BEEN PREPARED TO FACILITATE THE TRANSITION TO YOUR NEW HOME AND...
