Thanks for all the great shots. I love the way these buildings tower over the corner of Yonge and Park Home/Empress. And even though I also love the bold look of Hullmark, this location would be my preferred choice...maybe a unit in the South building facing south or west (would never buy at current asking, though). Looking forward to seeing the finished product.

 

[Conrad Black]

Wonderful shots. Glad to see them higher than the surrounding buildings.

I remember this one being a hole in the ground for a long time. Anyone know why it took so long to get above ground on this one?

I don't think it took a long time. In fact, considering this project started after Emerald and Hullmark, it's been super fast in construction

Menkes just tweeted today that they are close to topping them off.

Just finished the top floor. Ready to build the "ramp/hat,peak" on the top

Just saw a new sign at Gibson Square mentioning that "Aroma espresso bar" and the "3 brewers" will be some of its tenants. Great news for the neighborhood which desperately needs more of a night life.

Yes. Finally some decent tenants.

Yes. Finally some decent tenants.

It's hard to imagine where all the residents will get their dry cleaning done and sandwiches made.

Shame about that shady Thai place I saw coming in the future

 

[CityPlaceN1]

Plenty of those in the area already.

Agreed. I love "3 Brewers", even though they are a tad pricey (but what isn't around here)?

Please take the Middle East debate elsewhere - Mod.

not a mod, but I'm guessing because its politically sensitive and they don't want a huge flaming war over isreal popping up in a thread about a north york highrise.
