How about more crane!

Double cranes (Cobalt in the background)

I also noticed the parking lot behind was completely empty and only in use by "Permit" which tells me either Core Urban rented the entire lot, or they bought it up?

So is it the Pheasant Plucker, the vacant lot kitty corner or is UC going to buy a church

Maybe the parking lot referenced above is connected to this tidbit previously from UC

I really like the way that one turned out. It has a great street presence but its not overwhelming. I think the larger building on James will compliment it nicely.

Chronamut · #**189** Posted **Jun 19, 2022, 9:16 PM**

I think it turned out nicely - I like that they chose skin toned vents to not take away from the brick, although I feel the seams between the stone were done a bit messily in parts. I feel previous generations would have been more careful in that dept.

I'm excited for the white one going up, not so much for the one on the corner, personal taste I guess, just feels kinda meh compared to their other designs. At least it's tucked away.

Great part of the streetscape - taken June 17

Very nice indeed, looking forward to seeing it in person although I am not sure about the plain glass Juliette balconies.

They look good in person ...

Chronamut · #**193** Posted **Jun 26, 2022, 8:51 AM**

it's funny how the building sorta just looks like it's always been there..

ScreamingViking · #**194** Posted **Jun 26, 2022, 9:01 PM**

It does. I hope the two that are going up now give the same impression.

Yah, it looks like a former industrial building that's been converted into lofts.
I like it.

Hamil60 · #**196** Posted **Jun 29, 2022, 9:35 PM**

Go by everyday and today was surprised to see curtains in the widows of a few units and balcony furniture as well. They are doing a great job!

Yup, they are definitely fulfilling a starving need. We need many more buildings like that!

RealtorMarc · #**198** Posted **Jul 4, 2022, 4:45 PM**

Anyone know if they've fully leased up this building?

TheRitsman · #**199** Posted **Jul 4, 2022, 5:24 PM**

It's odd. There is patio furniture on some of the back balconies, but the furniture seems to all be identical in different colours on each balcony. Is this being done as an Airbnb for now? We didn't see them online available for rent.

craftbeerdad · #**200** Posted **Jul 4, 2022, 5:36 PM**

Could be staging photos for rental? That'd be my guess.
