Curious to see what retail will take hold here. Extend the vibrant Junction strip!

A Boxcar Social type cafe, a taproom for craft brewery located off site, and a buzz worthy eatery or delicatessen would be nice.
Just my Tuesday afternoon day dreaming at work.

Inside Toronto's swankiest condo lobbies
Gone are the days of a lone concierge sitting behind a sad desk. Today’s best condo lobbies are lounges, bars, cafés and workspaces all rolled into one

Another retail unit is being fitted out. Permit states multi-user so no idea what it is. Taken 15 May.

This stretch of the Junction is crying out for a COZY CAFE...

Very nice but that soffit detail above the townhouses is a bit rough.

According to the city permit website there will be a dental office and a pilates studio so far.

An over-hyped project imo. Other than the neon sign I don't really see what makes it stand out to people.
The design is generic but generic only works when it's well-detailed.

I honestly just like that it's simple. Too many new condos/apartments try to do too much with too little. If your budget for cladding is low, simplify. Don't try to use 5 materials and have shaped and figures that require detailed design work to implement well.
It's simple, and will fade into the background in 10 years, not stick out like a sore thumb.
