Toronto Sun Life Financial Tower & Harbour Plaza Residences | 236.51m | 67s | Menkes | Sweeny &Co

It's not only the materials, it's the size and the actual concept.

Failure.

From the rendering, the pool area looks like a place where you could go and spend the afternoon, maybe meet some of your new neighbours. From the actual, looks like a place that would be too warm and likely smell of chlorine. Buyers at the LCBO site hopefully are aware of the Menkes bait and switch.

The community centre comparisons are funny, because some the recently built community centre pools in this city are stunning. Menkes should aspire to community centre pools, at this rate.

That's not a pool as much as it is a urine and skin-cell puddle.

^the accuracy of that statement is nightmarish

 

[Mo-tage]

That's actually the pool at the public gym, and it is a joke, I'm not sure why they bothered. There is no pool for residents.

Yes it was a bait and switch on the pool. But I will say the amenities on the 5th floor for residents are extremely nice, despite the lack of a pool.

Resident amenities are on 6th. Mercanto and Pure Fitness are on 5th (public)

But, yeah, the pool really irks me. That render or whatever was so amazing.

Honestly, this is unacceptable. This "before & after" would be a great article for a newspaper

That's quite pathetic for such a high profile project. It is possible to match an original rendering... this is ours

I noticed the exterior signage for the Winners store along Harbour Street for the first time today. Very subtle and subdued. I like it. Very classy. I don't believe that it will be illuminated at night, which is great. Elegant is how I would describe it...

North sidewalk alongside Harbour Street looking eastward from York Street. I presume words "Coppas", "Pure Fitness" and "Mercantile" will eventually appear on this vertical sign below the "Winners" moniker.

Boy does that stretch ever need greenery. It can't come soon enough!
