Im not sure about that. It wasn't mentioned during the presentation and I didn't even think of asking about it.

The "1" in the logo sort of looks like the sillhouette of the Ritz.

so what is the feeling out there? is this project going to sell-out? The crystal blu project and uptown which are close by are still selling?

It depends on ppsf, quality of the suite's materials offered & floor plan designs. It certainly has a lot of excitement going for it with all the buzz in the media, it's location and profile. I'll speculate that if this opens as a mid-priced building it will sell like wildfire. If they price it towards 4 Seasons/Shangi-La type folk I'm not so sure. I don't think well-heeled pretties want to live at Bloor & Yonge.

/\ Definitely, I hope they price this one right as there is sure to be many units to sell. HA, Imagine if this became the new Bay/Adelade stump!
Just think, we could have the next Ryugyong Hotel! It'll really contribute to that 'world class city' thing that they've tried to get going...

So they will not be "building" a sales centre?
Anyways, I think that building is 'posh' enough for their needs. This isn't the Four Seasons.

I was reading "Dream Homes and Condos" on the subway today and the ad for 1BE said "from $300,000". So it sounds like it's being priced a little above mid-market which is fair for that location and providing the suite features are decent.

Yeah, three-hundred doesn't sound that bad when you consider what the average price of a unit is in that area...

It's dollar store cheap compared to the Hazelton and the Regency which are marketing to the $2.5 Million plus crowd.

If the smallest unit is 500 square feet, that's $600 per. Even if the smallest is 600 square feet, that is $500 per. Does that sound reasonable?

I was reading in another thread how Cityplace was selling at $500 per sqft. So $500 per sqft is definetely more than reasonable, even cheap, at Yonge and Bloor.

^^ Yes, but do you know the height of the ceilings? Maybe the building was initially designed for Woodland Kazakhi folks at 7.5 feet in height

Haha. Very funny. No one builds for Woodland Kazahks anymore - they build for Oil Rig Kazahks. At CruptalBlown, Bazis' first Toronto project, those roughnecks are buying 10 foot high smooth finish ceilings in all principal rooms, 9 foot smooth finish in bathrooms, kitchens, and laundry. I don't imagine that 1 Bloor East would be a step backward to much lower floor heights for Bazis...
