The Next Amexon development at Leslie/Sheppard will be a New York themed development. Be excited folks...sounds very nice. :-)

@MadMax - That's correct. There is no lake view from my suite BUT the balcony is on a N/W/S exposure which means there is a decent lake view from the longer end of my huge balcony. Good enough for me. :D Well, that's until the dreaded ONNI builds south of us....*shudders*

This is crappy news. Really frustrating... :s OMG the corner of Parklawn and Lakeshore is going to look like another Mississauga city centre. I am so frustrated about losing the South view!!! If you really love SoBe I'd still say buy in because of the quality of the finishes and the space...

Welcome to SoBe mdshadman! I too bought my first property at South beach as well, an 8th floor Collins unit. :-) I am pleased to see that phase 2 is over 70% sold but I am disturbed by Onni planning to develop at the current Kraft/SNC building sites blocking our south lake views. Have...

I was just at the sales centre on Sunday and Phase 2 is 71% sold and it is ahead of schedule. Us Phase 2 folks might be moving in a little sooner than expected. Surely by 2012. :-)

P.S. Phase 2 of South Beach is 71% sold. I was at the sales centre yesterday. :)

@Mad Max - Thank you! Are you in Phase 1 or 2? Umm as far as I know you are right, the only difference in the higher floored suites (10 and higher) is the marble flooring. I personally didn't want it b/c it's a pain in the you know what when it comes to yearly sealing...marble is soooo porous...

@Hitman001 - It really depends on your price point, etc. I personally think the Collins has a remarkable layout...so I bought it. The oversized wrap around balcony sold me! (W/S/N views) I will only have a slight lake (Marina) view (for god knows how long until something blocks it) but I...

South Beach Condos @Swaybars - Glad to hear you got the upgrades too. :-) I even got the decorated pillar thrown in. Apparently Phase 2 will be sold out in less than six months (already almost 70% sold). I'll be passing by the sales centre this weekend so if I come across any new info I'll be...

South Beach Condos Re: Construction process - I was there this week...The hole looks pretty much the same to me. :s I hope all us purchasers will be in by 2012. I recently purchased "The Collins" and I'm happy with my experience. Many members throughout this thread complain that what is...
