It’s not that bad. People are being dramatic. This building will help improve this area even more, and what the area needs is something light and bright.

Exactly. I think it’s hilarious that anyone believed they would build a quality project. Buyer beware.

Considering the mess that Alterra made with 159SW, I’m not sure how anyone could have confidence in this project? I think we can expect the project to look nothing like the renderings, rental-like build quality, cheaping out finishes and an unfinished looking podium are to be expected. Just walk...

It looks extremely low end, you can tell they cheaped out on this.

What’s up with those poles. Are they just temporary?

Will it be a condo or a high end rental?

Your pics kind of show the worst of Selby with the No Frills entrance and you didn’t show the character of Linden Street at all. I don’t think your pictures represent the charm of the area at all. I stand by my point that there are many streets with a lot less heritage that they could build...

I’m thrilled they came out against this project so strongly. There are hundreds of other streets they could build a couple condo-like towers on. Linden St is very charming, and, although maybe a poor man’s version of a street in Cabbagetown, it has a lot of charm still, which would be ruined by...

This area is coming along quite nicely. It has a charm to it.

It’s beautiful, those photos show how that area is evolving. It may not be Yorkville or technically Rosedale but it’s a world away from St James Town.

Those fake brick panels are so cheap they look like they could blow off in the next wind storm. The black renderings actually made the building look cool and interesting. Smh

They think they are saving money, but many of us will make a mental note that Alterra builds junk and I would not consider them for my next Pre-construction purchase.

I don’t mind the tower and I like the shape of the balconies. For me the issue is the cheap looking brown podium. It looks very low quality and that brown color isn’t doing it any favours.

What is that lot between red rocket and glen going to be used for? Are they eventually going to put a small park there?

I’m bored out of my mind with this project. I guess it blends in.
