Southern units are too hot with the sun beating on them all day and though some may like the view of the lake I'd much rather have a northern view of the city skyline and stay cooler while you're at it. I would never pay more money for a South view but that is just my personal opinion. I'd pay a premium for a North view.Potentially because the southern units are more expensive? More difficult to sell...
South views can be better due to health benefits. If you do not have a view of the sun, bacteria, fungi, and mold can grow. Reducing indoor air quality. Heat won’t be a problem if you have good air conditioning.Southern units are too hot with the sun beating on them all day and though some may like the view of the lake I'd much rather have a northern view of the city skyline and stay cooler while you're at it.

EDIT: Currently live on the 27th floor of a building in Hamilton with a South view and I hate it only because of the sun lol
Not a problem in new builds, AC is very cheap in new higher efficiency units and a one time purchase of curtains is cheap. Seeing more sun year round is a definite health benefit.Southern units are too hot with the sun beating on them all day and though some may like the view of the lake I'd much rather have a northern view of the city skyline and stay cooler while you're at it.
Yeah, we can just leave the AC running all the time without being charged extra. The cooling tower(s) on the mechanical penthouse are always running anyways to accommodate every unit.Not a problem in new builds, AC is very cheap in new higher efficiency units and a one time purchase of curtains is cheap.

For Pinnacle towers specifically, north balconies/windows are right in front of Gardiner.
For towers near the waterfront, generally, by facing the water you have a lower chance of future view obstructions and less noise.
I hope you can understand why it is generally considered a luxury, even though your opinion varies (lucky for you financially).
