I don't think the people giving "their honest opinion" actually bought units here... Judging from their posts. They were just coming to pooh pooh the project, which yeah, no one is going to claim it looks like it will win architectural awards but saying it looks like that red bricked rectangle...

This project looks like... this? http://www.emporis.com/building/bebloorphase1-toronto-canada Other than the lack of glass windows everywhere (granted, that looks good), I don't see how it looks like that building. Yes, this building does look quite white and not fancy-schmancy like the...

Ditto. I don't care about DSL so I don't care about that but I don't want to use Rogers cable exclusively. And about this no paint until closing... Is that legitimately something all new buildings require? (I can ask a friend about her situation but in case any of you know) And is it really...

We actually should make a Facebook group, not page, since groups are private and pages, anyone can see the contents. Make it similar to Davenport Village Residents' group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/davenportvillage/ And perhaps we should limit the group to just phase 1 people instead of...

What?! Really? Is this now your 5th push back? My occupancy date was March 12 and it was my 4th delay, and I never signed the document they sent me for that. So far, I haven't seen an email come through about another delay but I don't know whether they've called my home.

Eish, how often do freight trains run a day? And we USED to have a group on Facebook, when it was called my electric city. I think then Facebook changed formats for groups so it went defunct. But yes, we should totally create one!

Does the building actually look that white during the day time as it does in the photo above? It's shockingly white! And I guess maybe I should look into replacing the faucets. The faucets are the main thing that are of "s*** quality" right? That is easily replaceable I guess. I will have to...

Not to mention, aren't most of the architecturally beautiful buildings mostly glass? (which, as I've read, while aesthetically beautiful, long-term is not exactly the best solution for a building) This isn't one of those glass foot to ceiling condos, like the Canary District Condos that look...

I'm one above you, the 11th floor. I'm guessing then it was SUPPOSED to be a week per floor? Assuming Feb 25 week is floor 9. Though I'd think that the higher you are, the less units there are (due to the design of the building) so you'd THINK it wouldn't be as big of an issue. It's not like the...

What kind of electrical issues? Like just electric outlets not working or switches not working? They better (*shakes fist*) stick to my March 12th date! I can't deal with my horrible commute anymore!

Ya, I've been in friends' newly built condos and the hallways are always completely undone for the most part. And bluearrow66 - I'm a newb with construction and whatnot, but what do you mean by individual "furnaces" in the bedroom and living room? Are they actually furnaces? I have seen those...

Wow, someone on this thread is actually moving in/getting keys soon. This is a big deal! Speaking of which, a stupid question. Does anyone know how deliveries for say stuff like UPS/FedEx packages works for buildings without security or concierge? I assume there is a buzz in system which would...

Awesome, thanks for the report and the pics hkidd19! Your unit looks quite spacious from the pics. I wish I had made the request on my amendment to not out carpet down in the bedroom. Oh well.

Ohhh exciting!!!! Actually starting to feel real. Can't wait to see interior pics and let us know how the workmanship is like or anything to watch out for when we do our PDIs.

Boo! So I just got my email for my delay of occupancy (originally March 1). And like everyone else, it asks for me to sign the document. What exactly is the procedure for getting compensation that everyone is following? I am following along on this thread but so far, I am hearing 1) don't...
