If only they'd gone with a warmer brick there… Something like what was used on Daniels' Paintbox in Regent Park, which is a red-purplish-charcoal melange of iron spot bricks really would have made that terrace feel more inviting.

This motion coming to the FARM Committee this week:Yes, I've seen the plans. They also say construction was to start Q2 2020... Delayed as mentioned.
Unfortunately, the motion is to approve phase 1 of the project which only includes the in water pipe. The boardwalk will be part of a future phase 2, which doesn't have funding.This motion coming to the FARM Committee this week:
ON MOTION duly made, seconded, and carried, be it RESOLVED that the Finance, Audit and Risk Management Committee recommends that the Board of Directors approves the capital investment expenditure of $23.75M to complete the East Bayfront In-Water Pipes and Boardwalk and authorizes Management to finalize and award the Stipulated Sum tender for the construction of the East Bayfront In-Water Pipes.
True but WT usually seem to approve phase by phase and getting Phase 1 done is clearly a necessary first step.Unfortunately, the motion is to approve phase 1 of the project which only includes the in water pipe. The boardwalk will be part of a future phase 2, which doesn't have funding.
Looks like there is movement on the retail here. Walked by recently and Gong Cha Canada has indeed moved into one of the retail units (under construction still), and the leasing brochure now lists the large retail unit under Aquavista as "Under Negotiation" (whereas it simply said "Unavailable" before).Noticed in the retail leasing document for Bayside that the large retail space designed for a grocery store in this building is listed as "Unavailable". Wonder if they've leased it out to a grocer, presumably with the lease commencing once there's more density in the area?
The leasing brochure also lists "Gong Cha Canada" (a bubble tea place) as a tenant in Bayside, though there's no indication as to what unit they've taken (presumably one of the smaller ones in Aqualina).
