From the IKEA Vaughan parking lot this past Saturday.
I'm optimistic, but I hope the balcony wave pattern in Phase 2 either compliments Phase 1s or is very different, I think a carbon copy might look a little too cookie cutter and it would lose its whimsical-ness.
From today. Got a tour of some of the rental units. Very nicely furnished, and none of those wonky layouts you see downtown. Prices are slightly better than downtown prices, though there are no studios, which ultimately brings up the price. The gym, shared between the 3 buildings is incredible...
Another new one from PLANit. This time for the south-eastern edge of the VMC.
I can't wait for people to come from all over the globe to see Vaughan's famous building feature- THE SMUDGE!
New entry on PLANit. North of the supposed VMC boundary, but rules are made to be broken. Mods, please feel free to fix the title if needed.
Not sure I love the haphazard placement of the buildings, but hey, at least they aren't blue and grey!
From this past Friday, June 9th.
West tower is working on the floor of level 26/35, and the East tower is working on walls of level 23/30.
Notice in the last 2 photos, the podium is split. I'm assuming this to allow for expansion/contraction. Still, it seems relatively noticeable, and based on...
My (as always) very uneducated guess, is that those supports are made for 1-floor increments. But for the Mech. sections, they just stack a couple floors worth of supports in the spacing. No floor being poured, just how the supports are made.
Again, I am just a guy with absolutely no formal...
My biggest gripe with the roof is usually the early part of the season. Obviously the technical requirements don't allow this, but in my perfect world, it would only be closed for rain.
As for reorienting the field, my gut tells me the biggest problem with that is they would've needed to do...
Yup, or damn close to it! Then there would be a very sharp decline before it ramped up during the summer months.
I used to love going to the games right after the home opener with like 7,000-9,000 people!
And lastly, from today, still brought to you by my new S23 Ultra (still wish I was sponsored, pretty please Samsung?).
Starting from the east side and moving to the south/south-west side. The last picture tries to show the ramp that will eventually be the entry-level road for the towers and...
