@Paclo this one needs to change status to 'complete'.

Sadly, this seems to be correct. I keep hoping they have more to do that could only improve this eyesore but, short of demolition, this seems unlikely.

Has tenant occupancy started?

 

[rdaner]

Yes.

Has tenant occupancy started?

If you mean residential occupancy, that began in early April.

Retail updates: Tahinis is open and Krispy Kreme is coming soon

Positive to see retail tenants here, but my goodness is that grade level frontage awful.

JFC - the signage behind the windows. This thing just gets worse the closer it gets to completion.

 

[bcmc]

Yes the details are pretty bad for the retail units. The signage in the window is not very visible, especially when you're on the sidewalk facing the building as they're blocked by the bizarre canopy.

The bike stands aren't good either. Multiple of them have already been damaged as they're easy to knock over to steal bikes. So they aren't used much and simply add clutter in front of the retail units.

This building isn't good in any way, but they made the ground level so much worse than it needed to be because of these details.

There's not one redeeming feature in this gutter trash development, that retail frontage looks dreadful.

Congrats to Permberton for truly creating a thoroughly awful building through and through.

Oh dear god... it get's worse and worse. Time to boycott Pemberton in Toronto.

 

[christiesplits]

Christ, at street level, the building already looks 20 years old. Cheap materials, air vents and waaaay too much spandrel.

The consensus here is anti-Social.

 

[rdaner]

On IG they are saying occupancy starts in the middle of October.

 

[isaidso]

That's one depressingly ugly corner.

There is more work left to be done on those front areas (another glass layer to be added on top of those metal bases, so far glass layer has been added at the entrance portion only) and the lights are still not functional. I don't know why they can't do everything in 1 step and have to arbitrarily divide up simple work into different stages, but it's super annoying to say the least (same thing with the interior, no wallpaper in some areas (added in certain areas only lol) and no carpet still)

Anyways it looks slightly better in person than what appears to be on these photos. Maybe it will look even better after all work has been completed, whenever they decide that would be.
