How do they anchor the balcony missing in the photo on the left middle. I thought these were poured in place when you have a slab of concrete that heavy?

Looks like that floor has its balcony on the other side of the building. You can see it just to the left hand side of the picture there.

SW corner that opens to 102ave

Hmm. Balconies and ground floor are going to make or break this one. Hopefully it doesn’t end up looking like a black and white 121west.

Dah f*ck you just say...really..."You sure about that?"

I think this is going to look exactly as advertised. Can't wait as I think this building will be the start of something amazing in this part of the city.

I'm looking forward to seeing the east elevation uncovered, which is the main entrance - expecting that to be even more impressive.

What a difference to an area does one building make.

I am very happy with how this building is turning out.

The half arch opening is going to be stunning when done. Great height, and draws you into to the plaza. I included a tree canopy shot looking south down 123st.

This will lease up quickly. I trust they'll nail the Annex too.

May be an unpopular opinion, but to me this is looking like a pretty disappointing stucco box. In hindsight, it should have been fairly obvious from the renders.

I think that the final details, tenants and lighting will set it apart.

You're seeing it at its worst right now, they did stay true to the renders with this so called "stucco box" and I hope they continue to do so, because what made this such an attractive development was always the details; the splashes of colour, beautiful lightning, wood accents around the outside and most importantly the street interaction and life that comes with it.

I'm not totally sold on how this is turning out so far, hopefully these finishes that are coming really pull it together

I think everyone should hold off on deciding how things are going to look before they are finished. Look at Manchester Square and the Sync111 apartments; everyone was saying how ugly they were in construction and then "oh, doesn't look as bad as I thought" once actually finished. We will see.
