Not me. I think they could give a "F-you" to banks right now. Bonuses, bailouts, and Of course, we paint the Citibank, Bank of America, and Goldman Sachs as the banking industry as a whole. Lot of good, well-managed banks that aren't all "Evil" that sort get thrown into the mix with the tag...

Forgot to ask, what was in this space before they took over?

Came across this: http://www.newswire.ca/en/releases/archive/January2010/20/c2498.html "RIMOWA, Germany's luxury luggage maker, opens its first flagship store in Canada. To celebrate the opening intergalactic space travellers will be showcasing RIMOWA...

Looks like the RC site has been given a little more information and pics. (check out the photo tour) http://www.ritzcarlton.com/en/Properties/Toronto/Default.htm?om_a=map

Between you're link and the article posted (http://www.yourhome.ca/homes/decor/article/750478--model-of-design-trump-s-tricks) The rooms look stunning. Very glam, chic, and sophisticated, yet inviting. Between all of the new luxury hotels coming in the next few years, Toronto will get a huge...

Any idea when the exterior will be finished? With a summer 2010 opening, seems like they a lot of work to do. Seems like they are starting to add a little more to the site: http://www.ritzcarlton.com/en/Properties/Toronto/Information/Default.htm 23,000-sq.-foot spa? Pretty massive.

I wonder how long unitl we see action.

Sounds like a lot of space is open. Hopefully some of the luxury brands will jump on board.

Lot of wealth (not as much as there used to be) around.

What's wrong with Buffalo? ;) (I'm from Buffalo. Trust me, it's New York State more than Buffalo itself).

No arguments here. I was just thinking about the type of consumer they are going after.

Interesting. Dior? Dolce & Gabbana?

I love how the RC makes the nearby InterContinental, another luxury hotel company, look like a run-down Holiday Inn.

Very cool. Does it look like Toronto needs two or three supertalls to help the skyline pop?

Is the Yorkdale consumer more local, with Bloor Street attracting wealthy tourists and traveling business people? What kind of brands do you think will join Yorkdale in the future?

Interesting article on a recent party that talks a little about dining options and shows some pics of the model rooms/suites: http://www.torontolife.com/daily/daily-dish/opening-daily-dish/2009/09/30/million-dollar-thrill-a-peek-inside-the-new-ritz-carlton-hotel/

Very interesting. I wonder how the other luxury outlets at Yorkdale are doing? If they're doing well, I wonder if we will see other luxury brands open who can't find space on Bloor.

Any articles/pics on the Burberry opening?

This hotel, along with RC, FS, and Trump, will also add some top-notch (and expensive) dining establishments to the city.

Has Burberry open yet?
