The "church' owned (owns?) the derelict building on Yonge. See: https://urbantoronto.ca/forum/threads/toronto-church-of-scientology-m-8s.19330/page-21 They moved to King East 'temporarily' when they had plans to renovate Yonge St.Oh wow lol I never knew we had a Church of Scientology in Toronto. I wonder if it'll be retained in the podium
I'm sorry but the prices are absolutely laughable. A lot of people are going to be hurting when the market tumbles and I'm far from a bear. At some point there's only so much juice you can squeeze from a lemon. How many couples making a combined $300K+ exist? Salaries are still fairly low here. I don't understand it.
I think they'd be looking at a 1000 sqft unit but even with that, your point is still valid. It's lunacy. And to watch builders and Agents twists themselves into pretzels to make sense of these prices make my eyes hurt.And how many couples making a combined $300K+ want to live in a 622 square foot cookie cutter condo. These prices are asinine.
We're at a point where for many parts of the city, precon prices have now gotten more expensive than already built re-sale units on the market.
But resale prices are escalating quickly too, especially from what I've seen this month in January 2022. For units that you may find a few months back in Oct-Dec 2021 in the $500-700k range, they're all pushing up into the next $100k bracket. I've seen a 1-bed resale listed at $650k sell for at $785k within the Daniels Lighthouse West Tower last week.
1+dens that are listed to start in the mid-$600s to mid-$700s will inevitably sell in the low to mid-$800s based on ongoing trends I've seen as well.
2-beds are now hovering around the $1 million-mark, but appear to be generally slower movers on the market.
