I love the fluid curved step up of these towers. Wish we saw more of this rather than straight forward set backs all the time.

Might be the wrong thread to ask, but do you know the status of the parkette east of Jade?

I don't, but I imagine that it might not go in until the road between Eau du Soleil and Jade is built.

Would anyone know the status of what type of store would go into the back of Eau Du Soleil...?

Because no-one knows?

Yea, there's still unoccupied retail in buildings that have been completed for a year or so (restaurant in Ocean Club, etc) so I would imagine it will be quite a while until we hear anything about that.
Stores don't typically sign leases so long before the space is ready. There's about a dozen stores in this complex, so it's not going to be all nail salons.

Anybody live in this area? Is it turning into a self-sustained neighbourhood?

Yes, several of us live in the area. Is there actually such a thing as a "self-sustained neighbourhood" in the GTA? We all live in an interconnected metropolis, one vast civic organism, as it were. For one thing, employment is mostly elsewhere. But most regular goods and services are available within the immediate area by walking and most remaining goods and services are accessible by a short drive. As the build out continues, this will increasingly be the case.
Now, there are improvements to be made. A school or schools should be constructed. Transit needs to be improved. The 501 street car line is being rebuilt but a GO station and/or other rapid transit should go in. Yet more retail and restaurants etc will help. An intelligent development of the Mr Christie lands can make a huge positive difference
Still the setting and the park system make this a special place to live, IMO.

Poor choice of words, what I was really asking is if you live in a biodome.
