The biggest loss wouldn’t be the building(s) or the plaza. It would be the Roasterie closing.

I missed this one. Any updates for it?

Presales are ongoing at the Theodore. It is a center-ice location, so a great test if condos can make a go in Kensington in general right now.
I doubt anything is happening right now at the Midtown site. The price of the land is astronomical. Can't say more. I don't believe the current owner is the guy to take this forward. No reason to think it can't be redeveloped however, Great site for a tower in my opinion, especially with Bow to Bluff right behind and density at all other corners and no real reason to dispute the 'shadows'.

The 4 houses directly south of Pixel that were for sale just went under contract so another potential development spot in the area.

The Midtown Kitchen down the street. Rumor is the owner wants to develop it.

The floor plans are a bit wonky, and for selling it makes it harder. Renting less so. I think they will be able to rent the units because of the location.

Saw on their Instagram account that some plans are sold out while others are selling fast...they should be breaking ground next year!

That's really impressive. Must be a similar story to Era, probably multiple investors buying into it, likely as AirBNB properties.

Hopefully it's regular citizens buying into these condos, because investors are the ones buying all those condos in Toronto and Vancouver! But oh well, whatever helps our economy is welcomed

Yeah I'd imagine it's a mix of both, but more heavily weighted towards the investor side of things. It's just really cool to see some of the first true high rises (35+ meters) going ahead in both Kensington and Bridgeland.
