I'm tired of waiting for this project.
RE: the food tangent... I prefer a good Licks Homeburger. Unfortunately there are not that many spots anymore and the locations that are left are horrid.

Yep..makes me think that there will be one more design change and this will be Toronto's first supertall.

I doubt it - not GG - they are not risk takers.
Makes me think GG has cold feet - maybe site will be on the market soon? Maybe they are looking for a patner to share the risk?
The market is softening but supposedly this project was the best selling project last year.
It would be nice if GG would let everyone know what the heck is going on. If I had purchased one of these units, I think i'd be pretty nervous......again.

Wait a minute, they are not risk takers... then what are they doing planning condo towers at Dundas and Jarvis and Sherbourne and the Queens Quay.

And speaking of decimated gourmet-burger-type chains--we mustn't forget Toby's legacy upon the 1 Bloor site...

The only risky one there is Dundas & Jarvis. The other 2 are great locations.

Oh, im not talking about Pier27... but the Mondial or Parkside whatever you want to call it..not much of a great location yet, maybe one day.

Really, so you think one more tweak on the design and a measly 66 meters is unrealistic... Anyways lets get this so called best seller started.

Everytime I look at this updated thread all I see is wasted entries. GG is not hiding anything. Why all the drama? What exactly are they hiding?
1. The building is confirmed at 70 stories.
2. It's 80% sold.
3. It's stated to be ready Nov. 2014.
4. Construction is starting this Spring/Summer.
5. The picture above is the lobby, the render has been released for at least a month now. Pick up the free booklet at the sales centre.
6. Why would they have cold feet? The building is 80% sold. The only way this project would have issues would be if the investors backed out and we all know this is not going to happen with a company like GG.
