According to Councillor Troisi's office, the fountain will be turned on this weekend. Great news for the entire neighborhood !

Why does it take so long? It should have been turned on a month ago!

Why does it take so long? It should have been turned on a month ago!

A month ago was that major April ice storm followed by a week of rain. I would have set May 1st as a date for all fountains to go on as weather is less likely to be as drastic as it was in April this year

While I'm inclined to want turned it on earlier vs. later, I also appreciate jumping the gun could risk a freak freeze and then it would be ruined. Now, if they said end of June I'd be grabbing my pitchfork and heading the City Hall. All in all I'm modestly pleased.

Seems some doofus put soap into the fountain yesterday. Dumb. But at least all the doggies are clean and ready for summer.

I had a sit in the atrium this afternoon as well, plenty of seating and I enjoyed looking up at the ceiling.

I would say that it is still 'construction signage' and assume it will go once the building is occupied.

The room that Concert sign is in is the sky lounge / dining area, which hasn't been opened to residents yet. I'm guessing they'll remove it once it's open, which should be in a few weeks.
