A proposal to renovate the property at 8 Britain Street (between George and Sherbourne, south of Queen East), and convert it from residential into a retail commercial usage.

The building will become a retail showroom space for Montauk, who produce custom made sofas in Montreal. Their current Toronto store location is at King West & Sherbourne.

Anything that reverses EIFS cladding on a structure has my blessing, it's got to be the worst cladding material since Insulbrick.

 

[Lenser]

Amen to that.

Unfortunately, Corso Italia has been getting even more EIFS after Osmow's opened and renovated the NW corner of St. Clair & Dufferin.

 

[Lenser]

Ugh. A pox on our city. The stuff ages horribly fast and is far too prone to damage.

Taken 15 March. I love this street!
