For those not able to access the article due to the paywall, I think this paragraph is of particular note with respect to this project: My understanding of this is that, according to Kingsett & Dorr, a large chunk of the construction loan that should have been used to construct Uptowns was...

Around the start of the snowfall on the evening of January 6:

Oh, I was not meaning to critique your prediction, just to put one in of my own for a little competition. I think any prediction between 70 stories and top-out is probably reasonable, while a prediction of a complete stoppage (as some here seem wont to do) or of much more than topping out (say...

My prediction - I'll be optimistic and predict that we will see the pour for the final floor by end of year. But this tower won't really be topped out for height until the architectural element that caps off the supercolumns is installed. I do not believe that will be completed until 2025.

Yeah, in my Annex years I was in both styles - 35 Walmer first, which was a great building, then the ground floor of one of the houses at the NE corner of Lowther / Spadina (all owned by the same landlord, so I keep waiting for that assembly to come to market with some sort of proposal), then an...

Sometimes there is an extra "common elements" meter. Back when in-unit laundry was less common, this extra meter was often for a shared laundry room. Could also be for outdoor water, whether an irrigation system or hose. Long and short of it is that the number of water meters typically either...

I don't mind the design. If this parcel is going to be built out, the height seems fine and metal cladding, when done well, can be nice as well. However, 100% on board that the shoreline should have a much larger public space buffer, in public ownership.
