What is your feeling about this project Victory Condos?, I know the developer is the same of Four Seasons in Yorkville, what do you think about Victory Condos compared with Charlies on the east side of Spadina.
Walt brings up a good point about the turning streetcars. Can anyone living near the area attest to how tolerable/annoying this is? Aside from this point and speaking strictly about location, i still do prefer Charlie though.
Obviously there is a lot more to consider, i have to do some research on the particulars.
Yeah, I think it would be a problem for you if you lived on a lower floor with the windows open. I can imagine that if you had some kind of sensitive hearing condition, it could sound like nails on a blackboard whenever a streetcar turned, but it's not that bad for me. I actually kind of enjoy rail noises, and I even missed them during the TTC strike.Well I can only speak for standing outside waiting for the bus at King & Spadina, and it does annoy me. I'd imagine the sound from inside is not as bad, but personally as i usually keep my window open etc. it would be aggravating.
I don't think a sound of this nature that happens pretty constantly throughout the day really qualifies simply as background noise. It's a noise unique to this particular area. I'm sure it would affect more than a few people who decide to buy there if they were fully aware of it prior to buying.
