Re: PCL: Metropolis Update June 1/06
Oddly enough, while this thread has been filling up with Olympic Spirit talk, the Olympic Spirit thread in the Out and About section is full of Metropolis talk. Just to switch back to Metropolis here...
Between the current Metropolis leasing pdf (available at penequity's website) and the previous one dating from March, there are lots of little changes besides it losing the Canadian Music Hall of Fame.
Levels 5 and 6: were to house the Cdn Music Hall of Fame, but aren't shown on this plan, and weren't on last either. Isn't it going to be rather tough to lease out these levels? Or is the building being curtailed a bit?
Level 4: Boston Pizza is gone now, and the Wolfgang Puck Cafe loses space in favour of Jam Rocks. (Googling "Jam Rocks" turns up nothing restauranty. It doesn't show up at WolfgangPuck.com either.)
Level 3: The food court has been reconfigured: it will now have some seating facing Yonge Street, so I am assuming that there will be windows added that weren't there before. That's good. Two more of the spots have been leased since March.
Level 2: No change
Level 1: One of two escalator banks to take people down to the concourse has been removed.
Concourse 1: Major reconfiguration to accommodate Shoppers Drug Mart, floor nearly fully leased.
Concourse 2: not on plan, but another escalator bank exists on Concourse 1 to take people down a level.
So, mysteries remain...
