    Toronto Casa | 147.52m | 46s | Cresford | a—A

    The lobby is stunning and quite amazing aesthetically speaking. What are those murals made of? Are they different types/shades of wood?

    If you could change one thing about Toronto, what would it be?

    Please bury the hydro lines....or if not feasible, at least make them out of something that doesn't rust so badly...

    Toronto M5V Condominiums | 118.87m | 35s | Lifetime | Core Architects

    Yeah that pink hoarding should say "watch how slow" instead of "watch us grow" :p

    Toronto One Bloor East | 257.24m | 76s | Great Gulf | Hariri Pontarini

    I'm just trying to get a sense of what "type" of building (design wise) would fit in best here? Any thoughts?

    How many stories was this tower supposed to be?

    http://www.thechicagospire.com/building/imagegallery/ Maybe this would fit in well...

    Toronto One Bloor East | 257.24m | 76s | Great Gulf | Hariri Pontarini

    Yeah, you're right Traynor, doesn't seem to fit in here. We need something a little more slender with straight lines in my opinion. Maybe a podium that opens up to the street, kind of like Hullmark building in NYCC. Personally, I love the design of the "L" tower even with the foot chopped off...

    Toronto Festival Tower and tiff Lightbox | 156.96m | 42s | Daniels | KPMB

    I don't think it's about like or dislike....the colour black and it's formality demands respect and represents a position of power. I think it adds to the robustness of the podium and emphasizes a certain style and class that the "Hollywood Elite" have become accustomed to. I can just picture...

    Toronto Residences at The Ritz-Carlton, Toronto | 207.86m | 53s | Graywood | Kohn Pedersen Fox

    Incredible picture....one of the nicest I've ever seen. Thank you Redroom! Looks almost like an artists render...

    Who purchased a new condo and paid the extra HST cost?

    I found this out from my lawyer....anything purchased before June 2009 including pre-construction is NOT subject to HST. So no need to worry...

    Buying Boxing Day Furniture, worth it?

    Perfect timing...most furniture not manufactured in Canada takes about 8 weeks to arrive from China. I would...

    smooth ceilings ! Are they worth it ?

    Wow....I've never heard of anyone cleaning their ceilings before :confused: Maybe lighting fixtures with a duster but not the actual ceilings...

    Buying parking spots

    Well if Person A paid 600k for his unit and Person B paid 200k for his suite, then I think Person A should get first dibs...

    Toronto Waterlink at Pier 27 | 43.89m | 14s | Cityzen | a—A

    The province should buy the rust bucket, refurbish it, renovate it and make it into a snazzy casino on Toronto's Waterfront.....what an attraction that would be with thousands of people coming to visit. Come to think of it, they should moor a bunch of ships and make them all casinos and...

    Baby, we got a bubble!?

    I think this could be a disaster if the government ends up doing this and enacting it at this time. Not because I don't think that it is a good idea, on the contrary I think it is but this is the wrong time to do it. Imagine what will happen to all of the people sitting on the fence that have...

    Toronto Aura at College Park | 271.87m | 78s | Canderel | Graziani + Corazza

    Love the podium on this one....I'm still undecided about the 80's rounded throw back pool though :confused: Hopefully the glass will be clear as someone earlier stated....very elegant imo.

    Casa Condos (Cresford Developments) - Real Estate -

    That kitchen brings back memories....I had the exact same tiles in my bathroom not too long ago :p

    Baby, we got a bubble!?

    How do we know it's not all of Canada? It doesn't say anywhere in there the GTA...or maybe they are counting the occupancies that were supposed to happen in 2009 and are only happening in 2010 because of delays? sorry....just saw "Greater Toronto Area" in the header, my bad.
