I called Alleen's for a quick quote on blinds and it turned out to be more expensive than I had originally anticipated (been looking at IKEA too much over the years) My unit has almost identical dimensions to yours and I was quoted $2300 for both rooms, tax, delivery, and installation included...

First half of the tenants got occupancy mid-Jan. The rest of us are getting occupancy on Feb 1. I also heard 3-5 months though it will probably be on the longer end

Any advice on sanding, polishing, and/or sealing the concrete walls and ceiling? I'd like to make it look a little less raw than it is now while still maintaining the look. Would like to get some rough cost estimates if possible. Thanks!

Thanks! Yeah I changed the location of the door at the cost of some front closet space (it now opens towards the front door). I figured this would open up the foyer a bit more and avoid having the bathroom go directly into the living/dining area. It also gave me a lot more wall space in the...

PDI photos Here are some of the photos from my PDI. A couple things were missing (fridge, mirror in washroom) but otherwise it was pretty much completed. I have a 600sqft unit with the layout as attached NOTE: I was using a 10mm super wide-angle lens to take the shots so some of the...

Forgot to update you guys, the height of the door going into individual units is 84" (7 feet), at least mine is on the 9th floor....so larger sofas won't fit unless they are sectionals with a chaise.

Tarion Package and size of couch My PDI is tomorrow (Saturday) and I have still yet to receive any sort of Tarion package. Should I have received it in advance or will the developer bring it with him to the PDI? Also, I am looking at some couches now and want to make sure that whatever size...

RedSky, thanks for your clarification, that definitely makes sense. Hopefully they don't decide to put in a concierge though since that would definitely increase the maintenance fees. One of the main reasons I purchased at EAST was the minimal amenitites which would keep fees low. On...

Small 600sqft unit at EAST Lofts I am probably biased when it comes to my own unit, but I have yet to find a similar sized unit (or even larger ones up to 800 sqft) with such a large living room/dining room (especially the 11'8" width). Of course it comes at the expense of the bedroom real...

Is there going to be a concierge/reception in the lobby? My understanding was that there would not be anyone in the front letting people in, instead it would be a purely computerized buzz in system. However, when looking into the lobby of EAST I see that they are putting a desk there. Just...

Another developer update November 2, 2009 To All Purchasers of Units at 275 King Street East, Toronto, Ontario RE: East Lofts – Construction Update 275 King Street East Dear Purchaser; We wish to provide you with another update on the construction progress at East. All concrete is...

I saw this yesterday and was confused as well. I believe it has to do with a new proposed building at the southeast corner of King and Sherbourne. Since EAST owners are within close proximity, the developers thought we should be aware of the hearing and voice any concerns. I believe the...

July 31 update from Developer Just saw that there is a new update from the developer: "July 31, 2009 East Lofts – Construction Update Dear Purchaser; We wish to provide you with another update on the construction progress at East. This past week, we have topped-off (poured the...

anyone have time to post photo updates to see how the building looks as a whole against King East? Curiousity is killing me as I'm currently in London for the summer and all I rely on for glimpses of my future home is the UT msg board. I promise to put up photos of my unit if I ever get to...

Awesome, thanks for sharing. Did they provide any additional information or details on construction issues (beyond what was mentioned in their letter) or potential retail tenants? Any anecdotes or interesting facts?

*sigh*...I had no idea these types of delays were possible when I bought pre-construction. Signed the contact in Dec 2005 with the expectation that the Dec 2007 move-in date would probably get pushed to mid-late 2008. Never would have guessed it would be early 2010 lol.... I purchased in...

updates? Any new photos or stats on how tall the building is now? Based on the rate of construction in the past couple months when would you anticipate move in to start? It seems to have been picking up speed recently

webcam is useless yeah, unfortunately from where the webcam is placed you can't really see anything. Hopefully they will realize it and find another angle to position it in

Actually, I believe the first floor IS double height like MOZO. Those supports in place are for the fouth floor if you consider the retail level two floors. From what I remember, the platform you see in the photo is the ceiling of the retail space. I am a little dismayed by how slowly...

move in date pushed back again Just got a letter from Harhay saying they have pushed back the move in dates again, Oct 1 for floors 3-7 and Nov 1 for floors 8-penthouse This is now more than 18 months beyond the original move in date when we signed (supposed to be Dec 1, 2007). Should...
