I have to disagree with some of the posters here. In the past year I've been to about 15 different housewarmings. Every time the place has nice dark floors people go "wow" and comment on how nice the floor looks. Nobody comments on the floor in the places that have light flooring. I also...

Just to comment on posts from some of the previous pages. CASA IS "upscale" mostly based on the location and the fact that the standard finishes in the units and of the condo itself are a little better than most new condos. Don't get me wrong, it's upscale in the "typical" condo category...

There is a lot of seating up in the blue section of the lobby which also looks pretty cool from the outside, you can't see that there's furniture there until you actually go up since it's hidden by the railing. I doubt that anybody will ever sit up there though. There are lots more couches on...

That's really too bad for those in CASA with East views but buyers should have known this...it does suck though for someone in the high 30s who may have been expecting to clear...although you never know exactly what floor of one building will match up with the floor of another. Since CASA...

What happned to all the planters?!?!!? I just saw them all bare on the NE side of Y&B...did everything die?

I purchased at CASA, it's my first condo purchase so I have nothing to compare it to however from what I've learned talking to others and through this forum they've been excellent on this project. Personally I have had a very good experience as well considering that I was also one of the first...

Today is supposed to be the day.

I'm going to comment on both topics here. As for the garage...I think it sits on top of the subway so I don't think they can build a condo here...unless they can build something without below ground parking. I'm not an engineer but I'm pretty sure that wouldn't allow for the proper...

I think they will like do a proper cleaning of everyone's glass by the spring...no?

A random thought hit me walking home last night looking at the hat. The roof may now be unlikely to get lit up at night in light (pun intended) of the fact that the roof is now being used as a terrace for upper penthouse owners. I just don't know how happy I'd be if I paid the big bucks for...

LOL, I was referring to units bought pre-construction. When you would have paid half per sq ft of an Arezzo vs. one of those Penthouse units.

An Arezzo? OUCH! You must really be kicking yourself, best unit in the building and probably worth a fortune now. If there were any Arezzo units left when I bought in spring 2007 I would have got one.

The lobby is nearly complete now with the conceirge desk installed. I'm not too sure how I feel about it, although it has yet to be completed. It is currently white and apparently they will be installing glass panels to it. It is an extremely long desk and yet still looks tiny in this massive...

Thanks waterscapes. That sounds more like it, somebody told me that they only paid like a thousand dollars for the appliance upgrade which is why I was upset. This person was clearly mistaken because I now remember that at the time doing the math and figuring that you could pretty much...

Ya, so I assume you got the kitchen-aid upgrade package...see the person failed to tell me that it also included a washer and dryer upgrade LOL. Do you have any idea at all of what the cost was to upgrade all of the appliances? Are the washer and dryer that you got High Efficiency front load...

I am a little bit pissed off that they never informed me about the option to upgrade the washer and drier. I think I had one of the first appointments to choose finishes and the person helping me knew nothing and didn't say anything about washer and drier upgrades. Can I ask what type of...

Want to post some pics of your "nicer" view on the CASA thread? :D

I feel ignorant asking, but what are "mullions"?

I also feel like it could have made sense to put the gym and washroom facilities on the same side as the swimming pool and hot tub just for better access. I assume they went with the residents lounge on the pool side because it's the "prettier" side of the amenities floor with partial view of...

Correct, all of the equipment is in place. 2 treadmills 2 elipticals 1 stationary bike 1 recumbrant bike 1 weight rack and bench 2 different upper body weight machines They have not yet installed TVs but there are cable and power outlets installed all along the ceiling. Looks like...
