I just read the letter as well. It said that "your condo's insurance" will need to approve the repairs etc. etc... What does that mean? Our corporation is claiming our own insurance? Does this mean our insurance rate (and maintenance fees) next year will increase because of all these claims we...

Hi Alvin, Does your fob open the doors at the George Henry Street entrance?

Thanks Enigma0t, That's good to know you found it. I tried many places and I had a bad experience at this place called Moneysworth in Downtown. They said they would guarantee it but didn't actually want to refund my money since they cut me two keys. They had a special blank key, but it just...

We now have two elevators working. Yay!

Thanks Techia for the update. During this experience, I met a lot of great people living in the condo. Surprisingly everyone I've talked to was able to laugh it off while we trekked up and down the stairs. Suddenly all the residents at 70 Forest Manor are very fit. :)

Do you know if P3 lockers were affected? Is your P2 locker the one closest to the elevators or somewhere else?

You're right Canchris7.... I'm just feeling a little bit bitter... I think these things happen to most condos... (Floods, elevator problems)....... I just realized they sent me an email regarding lockers that were affected by the flood. Has anyone swung by the P7 locker room? If I had known...

Hi Grasshopper, Sorry to hear you were the only one there. It was a last minute invite. Can you share with us anything important from that meeting? Seems like these issues should be shared with the media. I'm sure bad publicity will help speed up things around here... I've been getting a...

The water's running now, but the elevators arent.

Hi enigma0t, I wouldnt suggest getting your own keys elsewhere. I tried that and the keys didnt work. They use a special key that costs more at the key cutting places anyway. I went to three places and the keys didnt work. I ended up going back to the concierge to have them cut at $10 each...

You're right... I didn't think about that until I looked at my windows. My room's ceiling is about 8' tall, but my windows are the same height as yours. There is about 2" above and below the curtains, so a bit of light comes through. However since the ceiling is lower than the top of my...

Hey Ayau, I think I got this one that's 96" long..............[137cm(w) x 244cm(l) / 53.9"(w) x 96"(l)] http://www.bouclair.com/10937-Azuki-Collection-Blackout-Curtain-Length-96-.aspx Just make sure when you buy curtains from Bouclair, look at the SKU number to make sure they're the...

Since our windows are so tall, I ended up getting customized roller blinds through my friend's referral. I can PM you the company if you'd like. I checked Home Depot, Walmart etc. and there's nothing that you can buy off the shelf. For my room, I got black out curtains from Bouclair but it's not...

Thanks for offering to start the email group Ancea. I've sent you a private message. By the way.... has anyone tried getting both the 6 months free Bell as well as Rogers? My six months is almost up with Rogers, so I have to cancel or change the package before the last month.... I'm wondering...

Wow Ancea, That's so gross. I experienced that a while back too, but it wasn't THAT yellow. I wish I had checked this forum earlier. Who knows if we have been drinking that...... Don't you agree that property management should be emailing us regarding issues like this rather than posting...

Thanks, that's good to know. I hadn't seen any, so it was my wrong assumption that the entrance was shared.... Sorry guys. Regardless of how many entrances there are, I still think it's too steep and limits visibility near the top. There is enough traffic now from just Tower 1 that could cause...

Actually, I was assuming the ramp would be shared because I don't see any other entrances for the parking lot. The parking lot is so huge, don't you think it's shared? I'm not saying anything about the zoning law. Im just saying it may be too steep.

Hi Enigma0t2, I took occupancy around mid January, and the building closed on May 6th or 7th. There are ~18 floors above me. I think it really depends on many different factors, so it's hard to predict.

Thanks PinkLucy. That's good to know. I'll be waiting for that form! I did some research on that ramp. I'm just concerned because pretty soon three towers of residents will be coming in and out of that parking lot. As per the City of Toronto Zoning Laws: (3) Exterior Stairs, Access...

Now that the building is registered, does anyone know what happens if there are any common elements that aren't built up to standard? I think there are a few things that could/should be repaired before the costs get passed on to the tenants. I think someone mentioned that there is to be a third...
