Burano Condos photo facing North on Bay Street from College Park Condos!
Have seen a few units inside and the night view facing South from a higher floor (lots of floor to ceiling windows) must be spectacular the way it "leans" out over Bay Street.
Very true, the pool/fountain need some more design. I put College Park in quotes for that very reason. It is a public park, perhaps the many new Condo residents surrounding it can be involved in the future to make it even better.
First, thanks Geekaroo for your photos.
Have driven by several times lately and it seems all too big! Rather like a "Monster" at street level. I was expecting a set back podium and more street level access. More light..(less building?) A Fortress comes to mind..
What are the lines running down?
There is also an underground river running down Bay Street that complicated the new Toronto Police building at Bay and College several years ago.
"As part of Toronto's approval process, the 75-storey Aura Condo was required to put a knock out wall along Gerrard St. for future access to the Path."

The first picture shows where the Aura entrance should be (the shadow of the crane on College Park) The exact address?? Yonge?Gerrard?
Nice pictures with the morning sun warming up this new project!
Milan is one of our most popular Blog posts...the location is not the best, the gas station stays, maybe that gas station could be turned into a future plug-in for new electric cars.Great pictures, I can even see the Gas station!
Staging Pile Drivers
Drove by today, looks like the three "pile drivers" are set up to go but no ground broken that I could see.
That "fence" looks like coloured sheets and not really high at all. Must be temporary..
Now we have a fenced in pile driving site..ready to go!!
Great Location Picture urbandreamer
I was at Pears and Ave. Road today and drove West on Davenport and turned back to get on to Pears,towards Ave Road.
First, that large Toronto Housing Building on Davenport (see Google Map Link) is rather large and..boring in style.

Pears On The Avenue

I used to go into the Pedlar Bicycle shop on the corner of Ave. Rd. and Davenport. Gone now..
