While I agree that's true when it comes to financing here...but quite the opposite when it comes to his buildings. IMO. Very few developers are as passionate as he is with his dreams and love for quality...and demonstratively so. However, that didn't translate well into a sound funding narrative. And he played recklessly with shallow pockets even in that....

...I still believe you can both worlds here. That is, amazing building with sound financing. It was obvious that Mizrahi was found wanting with the latter. And to put that mildly. >.<

Edit/Erratum: I still believe you can have* both...proper.
You can have passion about quality and sound financing. But you forgot a very important trait that Sam was lacking -- COMPETENCE.
 
My thinking and hope too - Toronto is a major NA city, Apple does not really have a proper flagship for the city of this size (like it has in NY, SF, CH), and they value this level of drama/theater in their retail presence probably more than any other retailer.
 
Let’s please not discuss Apple here. There are retail forums for that. (For those who are new, there were hundreds of posts about Apple going here as this space was designed for them before they pulled the plug due to delays. Will Apple reassess their withdrawal. Most likely. But let’s stop with the speculation in this forum. Thanks.)
