Just an FYI: Renting out your parking spot is in the Condo Docs. Only thing is that the renter has to be a resident. I know this cause I've already had a misunderstanding with Lifetime/ Brookfield about renting my spot out to a non-resident two weeks ago. So cancelling the purchase...

Natural Gas Valve The valve can be found behind the footplate underneath the stove. Not sure how they took off the footplate though.

There's a notice on the elevators, advising that a FaceBook group called M5V Life Condos has been created. I think Mark from the 8th floor started the group and I think the intention was to create a forum where residents can get to know each other. Kind of what this is, but on Facebook.

No frosted glass in my shower as well.

Can anyone confirm whether the natural gas at their place is turned on? We tried cooking on the stove for the first time this weekend and I can hear and see the pilot light working, but no flame or gas smell. I'm wondering if there is a valve I need to have on or something?

AC's working at my unit (7th floor), although it's on auto and I haven't exactly taken the time to figured out how to operate the thermostat. Regarding the SE views: I'm rather disappointed with how close Bisha is - especially since my view of the CN Tower will be completely obstructed. I'm...

On another note - has anyone else noticed that the parking spots feel a few inches to narrow? I had to shuffle in between my car and my neighbour's car sideways yesterday - and both of us were pretty close to the middle of the spot. I'm also getting a lot of grief from Brookfield about...

Last I spoke with Brandon (Lifetime Supervisor), the timeline to complete registration was Dec/Jan. The issue that people were experiencing with Rogers (not being able to find M5V as an internet-ready condo) has apparently been resolved. The good news is that people can get the vanilla...

Depending on when Starbucks opens, maybe all the residents can just hang out downstairs and use their free wifi. As for cable, I'm going to try out an HD antennae. My brother-in-law had it and he was able to pick up the main channels (NBC, CBC, etc) no problem. Since the CN tower is right...

@TheKingEast: The condo docs are full of clauses that allow the builder to do whatever, within reason. It's just the within reason part is a moving target - we tried to limit changes to within 2% and it still resulted in some unforeseen changes. @Romanpug2: They told us that the M23A floor...

Here are pics we took from our PDI on June 15th: http://www.dropbox.com/gallery/31462482/1/M5V%20%28Jun%202011%29?h=b76a6e The lobby and hallways weren't completely finished, but the unit was 95% done. A few things needed to be fixed, but there were some head scratchers that could've been...

If you're on the 7th floor, it's probably not a bad idea to fire off an email to them at customercare@lifetimedevelopments.com to confirm.

Yup... Move in date of July 14th (7th floor). PDI was for June 10th, but I need to push it back by a week.

Unit 703 at the SE corner of the building. We're facing the CN Tower, but I'm not certain if we're high enough to see past SOHO. Has anyone else received a confirmed occupancy date letter? I was reviewing the Dec 2009 condo docs and it talked about amenities. I'm not certain whether that...

Just received registered mail today and have a confirmed occupancy date of July 14th. We're on the 7th floor.

We're on the 7th floor as well and last I heard was August. I would welcome any move-in date that's sooner as I have a kid due in June and it looks like he'll be sleeping in a box until we get that second bedroom. I haven't heard much about potential stores or ammenities, but from the...

Probably for the same reason I make my bed every morning. I for one liked the thought and detail that went into preparing this building. I'm just a little disappointed at the end result, when the potential was there.

Zeeden, any chance you're on the 7th floor? I'm wondering if this is just isolated to the floor or if it's a wide spread issue.

Just got a call from M5V and wanted to post a quick update. The tentative occupancy date for the lower floors is still June 24th - I'm in the 7th floor and still scheduled for an August occupancy. Also, they have informed me of issues they're having with the concrete not turning out even in...
