I've gotta hand it to them: those Hakim Optical people are pretty funny.

I think it is safe to say that this project will be off the books in 2011.

LooooKie, loookie, MAAAA!! Hakim Optical has moved into their new building after 4 years of construction. This means they can now sell their old building accross the street to Ryerson or someone else now.

Jack sure took his time building this place. Now, lets see how long it will take them to lease the extra office space in this building.
So lets see... if I'm seeing this right they kept the old facades of the two side walls facing the alley? No seriously, did they actually do that? hahaha! and they've added a floor of new brick above it?! Priceless! This is the most hilarious case of facadism in the city. wow.
I thought I read somewhere (in this thread?) that the old Hakim building actually belongs to the City who have (or had) plans for that corner in the Kyle Rae era.
