Class A and new inventory will get leased. It's just a matter of what price. It's the old shit buildings that will be long-term unoccupied and ripe for redevelopment.

There is a lot of knowledge on this forum about architecture but zero about development. This is not a case of a developer running into "bad luck" or "COVID". It's a combination of fraud and incompetence. It's all been documented and is readily available online. It's been posted in this...

Hilarious that people ignored the warnings for years. We’ve been saying this would happen forever. It was obvious to anybody with a pulse. I get that you guys like tall buildings but come on…

Bridging Finance CEO had stake in Sam Mizrahi condo project that was secretly backstopped by investors, lawsuit alleges https://archive.ph/AcU1z

Thou shall not doubt this project unless you waste countless hours on this forum. Great gatekeeping bud.

Yet with all of that combined brilliance the dominant narrative in this thread is what...that Sam is a great guy trying to build an iconic building for Toronto? It's rose coloured glasses because of love of architecture or simply ignorance.

Check the thread history. Every time I or somebody else posted the G&M articles outlining this fraud or discussed it any way...we were told to shut up. The mods said it wasn't allowed to be discussed here. So I get what you're saying and I agree. It's just not what happened in this thread...

What am I asserting that isn't true?

This is the type of comment that gets upvoted by you folks. ;) Stick to talking about how the curtain wall looks.

Herein lies the problem. This forum appears to be mostly architecture students and/or architecture nerds who are interested in pretty buildings. They aren't interested in the business of development, just the end result. They want this project to go forward and don't have the experience or...

I told you so.

What does the project's complexity or location have to do with project owners that committed fraud in obtaining their project financing? The project itself isn't the issue. The money building it is.
