Some do, most don't. I think you'll find a lot of the older condos have limited free parking for guests providing you sign them in. Downtown parking lots don't like losing business to condos. In the case of my old unit at the Waterclub, the building had a deal with the adjacent parking...

Let's be thankful T.O. is nothing like Los Angeles. Helicopters everywhere, all the time.

The KingWestLife presentation center is always total deadsville. I don't think sales are terribly brisk over there. In fact the only time I ever see cars in the parking lot is durring MLS games and the recent Honda Indy.

Granted you loose a few SF to the stairwell but you gain a more "homely" feeling by having a second level. It's a decent trade-off. Hell, unless you can find a condo where your front door opens directly into living space you can say the same thing for square footage lost to a hallway. My...

I worked at the corner of Queen and River St. a couple of years ago. The Beer Store on that corner was (and likely still is) a popular pick up point for crack/meth addicted prostitutes. From my corner window I would see everything from Tow Truck drivers to business men in expensive BMW's...

Both have a very high ratio of renters. Build quality is roughly the same with Cityplace being a tad better imo. Cityplace gets you the fancy facilities, which in time will drastically raise your condo fees.....uh that's about it. The higher prices in Cityplace are entirely based on...

That's a pretty big generalization. I work at a Toronto Animation Studio that was granted the same, albeit smaller provincial incentive. There's a lot of conditions tied to that money, I assure you. Ubi-Soft is kicking in half a billion dollars of it's own money over the 10 year term and must...

Good deal. $10 will buy you a lot of plastic bags ;)

No matter how you look at it the new advertising campaign seems to have paid off. I dropped by the re-opening last weekend and sales seemed brisk, specifically on some of the reasonably priced sub 800sf units.

Glasshouse is located adjacent to the Fred Victor Centre. This shelter is home to some of the more colorful transients in Toronto. Spend some time on the corner of Jarvis and Queen after 9pm to get a decent "feel" for living in the area. Also, as was mentioned above this project has had...

LOL, spoken like a true Parkdallian.

I'd consider LV to be very safe. Being sandwiched between two sets of railway tracks acts as a natural "riff-raff" buffer. The undesirables from Parkdale and King West tend to stay away.

Here's a wonderful site for tracking mortgage and bond trends. Better yet it's conveyed in layman's terms. http://www.canadianmortgagetrends.com/

As a former Waterclub resident (York/Queens Quay) I can tell you that neither Wakestock, V-Fest or any other Island related event was a cause for excessive noise. The real offenders in that area are the clam-shell amphitheatre at the harbourfront Centre and the party boats with their...
