It's about time don't you think!

Rumours are that the man himself is in town next week. That should bring the life back to this thread. 8 days without a post - wow!

Completely biased here living on Wellington, but most of the construction will be originating from the Front Street side, starting with the office tower. It will probably be 3 years before anything else gets touched, and of course, the market will determine how fast it goes. Unless they decide...

They are just moving from Front Street, which is a benefit to everyone. There will also be a small concept Tim Horton's beside it on Church. These retail spaces are not luxurious as I think the dark glazing is scaring potential retailers.

W Hotel/Freed Condo (Mercer Street, ???) Anyone believe this? http://toronto.curbed.com/archives/2014/04/29/rumour-alert-is-there-a-w-hotel-coming-to-toronto.php

Very nice, well run building. Elevators have been a pain though as they have some hiccups.

I am sure UT is going to do a feature on this imminently and provide a bunch of slick renderings. I know UT was at the Design Review Panel recently as well.

The Well is such a big project, that waiting will be a long exercise. The prime residential will be on Wellington with the lower end product on Front. BTW, We believe whole foods is signed up but nothing is official.

We heard at the community meeting for the Allied project for 489/499 King.

This project is a dumping ground. Freed leaves the project, Whole Foods leaves the project, and now we hear Minto is totally abandoning the design and starting over. Wallman will probably get dumped too.

So far, I am not impressed with the "art" in the parking area/walkway. Unless there is going to be light behind these panels, the effect is quite muted and almost invisible and a waste of time. Does anyone know if there is intent to have these panels backlit somehow?

I doubt it, they seem to be on an expansion phase with corner and highly visible retail their intent.

Its a composite wood system, not stained wood.

I predicted this earlier in the thread. There is no way that owners or tenants (which make up 50%) of these new condos will maintain these lights and drapes over time. It's a really bad idea and headache for the Board until the whole idea is dropped. Sooner the better.

There was a cap and I think for most folks, they were happily surprised how simple it was in the end. Concert didn't seem to be going after a whole bunch of miscellaneous costs that were surprises.

Just a neighbour down the street. Like to see the parking stack machines too, if they let you in there.
