I admit its not an easy topic to narrow. My question is not about evaluating the architectural design of any particular project, but rather about evaluating the final built product as a user/ visitor/ UD critic...-
Quality of the Interior Finishes (Common Areas and units)
Quality of the Workmansip
Feedback on the M and E systems - Heating, Cooling, Other
So far my impression of the Builders based on a few of many projects visted:
Cresford - Above Average based on Thornwood.
Context - Average based on Radio City, Above Average based on Loretto.
Tridel - Above Average based on Polo 1
Monarch _ Below Average based on a couple Merton St Projects.
I don't think its necessarily about the developer, but rather a function of the contractor, developer, design team etc etc. Tridel, for example, appears to lead in reputation, but is this justified?
So I guess its sort of an unsystematic ranking of "reputation" that I am seeking, based on user experiences. No definitive conclusions are expected.
Please qualify your responses accordingly.
