For those that upgraded to the additional home theatre wiring.... What is it exactly? Aside from being able to mount the tv on the wall, does the upgrade include holes in the wall to drop the different cables through? I will be moving into Charlie condos and this is one of the upgrade options...

Hi dn2521, I replied to your post privately.

We visited the upgrades/finishes selections office and were pleasantly surprised to see that the standard finishes were quite nice. A lot of the upgraded finishes in the condominium we live in now (which was completed last year) are standard options at Charlie. A few things that surprised us...

I just passed by the building a half hour ago and noticed that they're adding the black bricks! They've started at the North/East corner. I didn't have my phone with me so I wasn't able to snap any pics

Hello, I'm on the podium level and I received an email from Alison, a decor consultant regarding the selections. Here's the email we received: Congratulations on the purchase of your new condo! My name is Alison and I am your Décor consultant. I am presently booking appointments for...

We have scheduled our finishes/color-selection for mid-July. I found that the standard options were quite good so I'm curious to see what else will be offered as upgrades.

I quite like it as well. A unit facing the courtyard would dampen the noise from the street car turning onto King from Charlotte. I just wonder how much natural light would hit this inner courtyard? Anyway, below is a comparison between riley's photo vs. scale model.

If you take a look to the left of the photo you'll also notice that they've been putting up new cladding above the main entrance. I was under the impression that it was going to be wood panelling? Maybe it still is and it's just what's underneath it?

Snapped two pics of Bishop's Block on my way to work this morning. It's looking quite nice!

Congratulations! It's going to be a very interesting time ahead.. but it's well worth it. :)

I live near the elevator and have had no real issues with noise or disruptions. The benefit of living near an elevator is bringing in groceries or other heavy items! I also have a parking spot right next to the elevator vestibule which also makes things more convenient. From the car to my...

In my building's process we had the Property Management company conduct an evening information session for those that were interested in running for a position. At the info session we received a package outlining what was needed to run. This package was also provided at the concierge desk for...

I currently sit on the board of my condo, which was just registered last year. So, myself and the others on the board make up the first-year BoD. Anyway, we do not have any representation of the developer on our board.. We're all owners. It's great that you are passionate about your condo...

What's the latest news on this project? It's now Winter 2011 and the sales office/model suite still remains intact.

It really depends on what floorplan and what standard or upgraded features the units have. Obviously investors don't care for such matters and thus these are the units you see on MLS. Anyway, not all appliances are tiny.. it all depends on the size of the unit. Bachelor units have smaller...

Kristopher is right. I also live in boutique and have visited various units in the building. Podium units have 8' ceilings EXCEPT for the 7th floor. They're the only podium floor to have 9' ceilings. As for the french balconies on floors 2, 4, 6.. the balconies are raised pretty high that...

Everyone here speaks about resale value and yes, that should be a consideration but not the ONLY consideration. I spent a lot on upgrades because I see myself living in my unit for a long time and it just adds to my level of enjoyment. So I haven't really thought about resale since I'll be the...

I still find it a weird location for that type of retail! If anything, that space should have been turned into a grocery store to accommodate the thousands of residents moving into the area within the next 4-5 years. (I'm one of them and I hate that the nearest mid/full-sized grocery store is...
