I have to agree here, CP has been good to me since I moved in almost 2 yrs ago.

Wow, thanks for that walli, the centre is incredible! I wonder if Dushabe residents are saying "hmm, this is nice, but I wish we had a Bata shoe office instead!" ;)

wanted to bump this up ... also interested in hearing peoples opinion on the current state of Leslieville along with its future potential.

btw, we're owners not renters

I've been living in HVE for almost 2 years now, and have not experienced any of the issues that people (mostly friends of residents or people who have heard things) mention. I have a cousin living in the Matrix buildings, and I see serious issues with them, but HVE has been pleasant for the...

This is a definite 1. Historically, does The AKF have a reputation for not completing their projects? Does anyone have any evidence of any project left incomplete? Further to the discussion of the Bata building and it's impact to the area, I would much rather have a structure that not only...

Clearly interchange42's earlier comment regarding the price of oil was a low blow based strictly on ignorance. Reading over the history of this thread, Walli has provided a significant amount of information on this project, and his tone only changed after repeated attacks. WRT the Bata...

nice shots. How cold did it drop to overnight?

This article's a few days old, but I don't think it's been posted here yet. Anyway, an interesting take on the market. http://www.yourhome.ca/homes/article/514328

I believe The Aga Khan's visit to Toronto has been delayed, in part due to the federal election. My understanding is that the groundbreaking will be done in early spring.

I've heard you can actually delay your occupancy date by simply refusing to sign the form at your PDI, as by law, the PDI must be completed prior to taking occupancy. So by refusing to sign, you officially can't take possession.

I had a similar experience with a newly built townhouse condo. After contacting Tarion about it, they informed me that occupancy can begin as long as minimum standards are met, which include 1 flushing toilet, running water (not necessarily hot) and standing drywall. Beyond that, nothing else...

Garzelus, You may have already mentioned this somewhere in this thread, but is this your first home purchase? Reason I ask is because you seem very easy going about some of the surprises. I'd be all over them about the bedroom frosted glass. I just had my first experience with a new...

I was hoping for retail in one of these spots.

Not sure if this has been posted before or not, but does anyone know what the plans are for the parking lot just east of the Harbour View Estates buildings, south side of Rogers Centre? Also, the Cityplace sales centre at the corner of Blue Jays Way and Bremner. Any idea what is planned for...

What about on the flip side ... do landlords here tell insurance companies the property is a rental property, or just tell them its their primary residence? I believe it's a lot more expensive if you tell them it's a tennanted property.

Wow ... I wonder what specifically went wrong. I'd like to hear what the contractor has to say. I mean, if he's dug out basements successfully in the past, you'd think he'd know what he's doing. Wonder if the home insurance would cover it.

Wow, awesome pics ... I had no idea this area even existed ... though, I'm not sure how comfortable I'd feel swimming in that water.

Is there a way to find out recent sales figures for your area if you're not an agent? Often just looking on MLS to see what others are selling for isn't enough, and you want to know what recent comparables sold for.

If you're going to be at the ROM, why not check out C5 restaurant that's right upstairs. If you're looking to impress, I hear that's the place to do it. http://www.c5restaurant.ca/
