Problem is, nobody enforces it unless a neighbour complains. When I was renovating my unit, my contractors piled quite a bit of debris for at least a week on the balcony. No complaints or follow ups were had.

Thanks!! Now imagine if I had a cellphone that wasn't 5 years old. Lol.

I have to say I am not digging Harbour Plaza. I guess I don't have to like everything tall.....something about the balconies.

KnoxfordGuy · #**2646** Posted **May 30, 2016, 3:51 PM**

funny because the balconies draw me to it lol

caltrane74 · #**2647** Posted **May 30, 2016, 4:01 PM**

It has a Miami vibe thing going on... I don't mind it.

One office tower looks great and the other one not so much.

It looks spectacular in certain light. Otherwise, I don't care for it either. It doesn't photograph well.

Which is which?

caltrane74 · #**2654** Posted **May 31, 2016, 3:31 PM**

The nice looking one is Menkes, the disgusting tower with the RBC logo is Oxford.

I was afraid you were going to say that. I won't tell you which I prefer, based only on that photo.

One Bloor looks like a supertall. Is it even 1000' though?

Looks messy to me. A poor example of the random balcony trend.

caltrane74 · #**2659** Posted **Jun 2, 2016, 4:12 PM**

Gotta be 300 meters for supertall status.

The balconies are the best bit, imho.
