Especially given the relative short height here which means the elevators will be able to run a full cycle fairly quickly.

It seems the more time passes the fewer the elevators they are putting into these buildings. My condo building is about 25 years old, is 6 floors, 108 units and has 4 elevators,. Almost too many, but we are paying for the convenience.

Average at best...an improvement of the warehouse that used to be there but can do so much better with red bricks etc. would have been nice for a King Portland Center extension

I agree that the colour is unfortunate. I've never been a fan of that cream/beige tone, as it always comes off institutional, or worse, SmartCentres-ish.

This is news to me. Now more clinics for pets than humans! Lol Taken 8 March.

That clinic will go gangbusters with the amount of existing and incoming condo dwellers who have pets.

March 18 - General update, plus a closer look at the Juliette balcony frames - the detailing does not appear to be great:

Front Entrance - still appears to be underwhelming.

Maybe the year's first and last snow fall.

Street level lights are in play.

As is occupancy!

Don't know why they use these faux Juliette balconies. They don't look that great and look even worse when they are dirty. We have them in my condo building and they do get dirty and are almost impossible to properly clean, even by professional window cleaners.

Simply not going to get the details right using glass railings and sliders. Juliets demand rod iron and French doors that, when open, will take up 3/4s of the living area in a new Toronto apartment.

^^^ All the street trees here are healthy, and all, interestingly appear to be non-cultivar American Elms.

Now to look at the park space and south and east elevations:
