Toronto Artists' Alley | 121.91m | 39s | Lanterra | Hariri Pontarini

Lanterra has always been like this. They squeeze the max units into their floorplate and their quality is cheap.
Sad for those who bought these at 1200-1300 psf

What do you mean by this? What qualifiers do you have for that statement which warrant singling Lanterra out above others in this industry in this City?

As a previous owner of Lanterra pre con. Lanterra and Concord are the worse developers in this city for quality of units
Tridel, Menkes and Daniels are known for quality units
 
...the qualifiers here seem anecdotal, for right or wrong.

Yep. I own a Lanterra unit. Would never buy from this dev ever again. Crap quality throughout.

My neighbor at that time was in the restaurant industry and comes home at 3am on shift nights. I could hear the door slam and know exactly when he's home because he blasts music. The walls are paper thin, 1 elevator always break (pick a month and it's a different one), the baseboards peel off and the shower glass sliding door was leaking. Trade came in a fixed it twice within the first year after logging a ticket for 6 months

Given two units of similar price/size, location and view, one is Tridel built and one is Lanterra built, which one would you pick?

Ask 10 other people and see what 10 people pick.

To conduct a survey about this would certainly be a better way to go here. This would eliminate the one off resident who lucked out buying a bad unit. However, the sample pool would have to be considerably larger and better defined than 10 randos off the street would more likely lived in neither...

...I don't deny or doubt that some developers treat their buyers' units with more love and care than others. However, there has to be a more extensive poll to determine that than a couple of individual testimonies. And with all due respect.

Typical Lanterra. They are notorious for poor soundproofing.
