There is a LOT of water in this site to contend with...

Going to be a handsome project!

I saw this on Menkes' website. It doesn't mention Pears but seems to be attached to a condo. Does anyone know if this is part of the Pears project?

The answer to your question is in the front page story on Pears from this week, linked here, but in case you don't feel like reading it....yes the 5 townhomes are part of Pears and will front onto Pears Ave. Same project just being marketed separately
