The balcony guards better be good.

Just one empty block left before the whole stretch of the south side of Eglinton between Winston Churchill and EMP is lined with condos.

Looking forward to seeing it get filled up. Hopefully we start seeing some activity in the other vacant strips of land along the mall side, as well as movement on the proposal on the other side of the Eglinton - Erin Mills intersection.

It's all looking incredible so far. Hopefully Daniels can start doing work across the street soon once this block of buildings wraps up.
I hope that whatever is planned for the adjacent parcel of land ends up happening soon too, it'll be really neat to see a complete wall of condos along Eglinton.

I'm surprised all these condo projects got built. Most projects in suburban non-nodal locations today don't sell well. EMTC is across the street but that mall isn't very popular (which is also surprising).

I'm honestly quite surprised at it too now that you put it that way. I'm pretty sure it's both the mall and the hospital that are significant selling points for condos in this area. I'm sure Erin Mills will eventually become more nodal as these empty plots fill up, though.
The mall is not unpopular in the way that it would be an actual problem for anyone living across from it, it's only unpopular in the sense that it doesn't draw many people from far away like something with more regional significance like Square One does. The whole thing needs to become a more urban centre of course: the parking lots and the non-park green spaces around the mall are still vast, but that will all come in time. This development is part of the process, as will the next Daniels phases be, kitty-corner across the intersection. In the meantime, the housing crisis affects the whole of the GTA and there still people who are happy enough to picture themselves driving everywhere, and there's no reason they'd rule out this spot as a place to park themselves.
