In most cases I really like raw concrete in hard lofts but in entry level/mid market standard condos they seem to give an aura (no pun intended) of "too cool to care" sales representatives & investors.

Exposed cast in place walls and ceilings in my living spaces are not my thing. The concrete ceilings highlight all the drywalled bulkheads in standard condos in Toronto. We weren't talking about condo interiors though.

This project definatley has the opportunity to become one of the best spots in the GTA, with the mix of stores and the walkability of the project is very exciting. We need more of this, instead of the monster condos that offer very little at the base of the buildings.

The early mix of retail looks promising. I wonder if Kids and Co is just moving the one that is currently near Christie, which seems to be in a fairly small building and I believe has no outdoor space.

From April 5th.

Home tours are available to book, I wonder how much of the site will be open to tour?

I’d hate to see what they’d have to charge had they finished the ceilings!

Are they booking for 1 May?

...oof, that's ugly.

...oof, that's ugly.

Duly noted: The Queen of the Annex does not approve of exposed concrete ceilings; particularly if unfinished.

769 sq ft for under $3k/ month is not cheap, but not outrageous either. Maybe because of the unfinished ceiling …

So much I could say. I will simply say, I have a lot more space for a lot less $$, the virtue of being a long term tenant.

Of course I don't have some of the bells and whistles of newer spaces (central a/c, ensuite laundry). Still.........

I do realize I'm incredibly lucky in that regard.

But I also recognize how unlucky folks are who find themselves in the contemporary Toronto real estate market.

I'm not sure that was stated because it is perceived my ego is out of control here (I hope not), but yeah...I am not a fan of unfinished ceilings, to put it mildly.

...although, begging the question: Are residents supposed to provide their own drop ceilings or something with these units? I presume at those atrocious rates, tenants are within their means to remedy that.

Good God, that is booooooooooooooooooooooooooonkers. Last time I rented was 2020 (in a building completed in 2016) and we were paying $1990 for an 800sf 2 bed in Seaton Village. We had finished ceilings and a regular-sized appliances too. Oh, what luxury!

There was no such perception; we all have subjective preferences. This isn't to my taste either............though I think you reaction might be a bit more visceral than my own.

), but yeah...I am not a fan of unfinished ceilings, to put it mildly.

I might be ok w/it, w/the right ceiling height, and the right colour scheme. But this, is not that.

...although, begging the question: Are residents supposed to provide their own drop ceilings or something with these units?

I would imagine not. As in, drop ceilings are not likely permitted.

I presume at those atrocious rates, tenants are within their means to remedy that.

I might draw the opposite assumption.

Given what rent is sucking up, what money is left?

$3200 for less than 750 sq ft should be criminal. I know it's Toronto but it's ridiculous

Almost $39,000/yr in rent!
