Toronto Charlie Condos | 122.83m | 36s | Great Gulf | Diamond Schmitt

I know! I think they are just removing the ramp and they should be done. The drilling has destroyed my Saturday morning sleeping in for months.
 
The City and TTC have issued permits for Tucker Hi-Rise to stage a mobile crane on Charlotte St. this Sunday (May 9th) to remove the excavators from the hole.

given the popularity of car sharing services like autoshare and zip cars, and the proximity of TTC in downtown, why do most new condo buildings continue to build so many levels of parking. Are property taxes assessed on parking spaces?
 
Zoning by-laws require them to build x number of spaces per unit for residents and visitors. The required parking rates for downtown buildings has gotten a lot smaller over the years, where generally it's less than 1 space per unit for residents and visitors. Further reductions are encouraged with the provision of spaces dedicated for car sharing programs like autoshare and zip, and by providing additional bicycle parking. The RCMI development got approved with practically zero parking for cars.

...aaaand the TTC has pulled the plug on the scheduled removal of the excavators on May 9.

Had to go pack to Page 7 to find this thread.

Picture from yesterday. It looks like they've made a little bit of progress since bigwikibird's images above but not as much as I would have expected.

Thanks for the updated picture.

Based on the progress, does anyone have an idea when this proejct may be complete (ready for occupancy). Not sure if anyone has been to the sales centre recently and obtained information from them.
