I actually don't think that many. Really just Kiwi Condos. 2024 should be different though. This development (Cobalt) and 1 Jarvis are set for occupancy.

I just did a quick tally of what was on the UT database;

Augusta 2&3 128
Platinum 292
Kiwi 266
Gore Park Lofts 40
McMaster 300 so far

Total 1026

it looks nice, but I still don't get why they didn't design the king william side more for patios to flank the existing restaurant strip.. Maybe itll be more indoor eats..

For the past couple summers restaurants have been setting up right on the street. I imagine that will continue

yeah I did notice that.. not sure how legal that is though since that's technically still a "street" that hasn't been closed off to transportation..

The city gives out permits for this sort of thing all the time. But for King William specifically, the city is supposed to be installing a permanent art installation/gate at James. I don’t know what happened to that… https://www.hamilton.ca/things-do/a...ng-william-beacon-and-gate-public-art-project

I reached out to her Ward 2 office about this and they said they'd get back to me.

They turned on the aviation obstruction lights on one of the towers... it's starting to look more and more like a 21st-century downtown now.

I really we get some illuminated towers soon. Although the reds are still cool.

Looks like they've confirmed occupancy as Spring 2024:

Nice touch with those balcony railings in the red brick section.

It's rough seeing LiUNA spend some extra cash here on finishes only for those finishes to have been designed by a cheap architect. I almost would have rather them spend a bit more on architecture and taken it out of their finishes budget, in a way. This could be so much more than it is with a more skilled architect behind it.

 

[Chronamut]

hmm not a big fan of the bars for the black brick balconies, makes it feel like a prison.. although the ones for the red part are nice..

also are they gonna be covering up those grates with awnings for the top of the glass areas? They just look so.. bare...
