^ It needs some LED screens up on those big blank surfaces to liven things up.

That's what I was hoping for. Anyways, the frontage at Yonge and Dundas will be LED OVERLOAD!!

WhipperSnapper · #**4323** Posted **Feb 22, 2016, 9:51 PM**

It looks like a Nordstrom.

They are not all created equal. This is the future Columbus Circle Nordstrom in Manhattan... Glass that let you see the inside of the store is the way to go, specially at night, obviously. Much more exciting that a beige wall.

WhipperSnapper · #**4325** Posted **Feb 22, 2016, 10:21 PM**

Jeebus. Forums sometimes. Nice but, it doesn't look like a Nordstrom.

caltrane74 · #**4326** Posted **Feb 22, 2016, 10:32 PM**

This is Yonge and Dundas, not Yorkville.

lol!

WhipperSnapper · #**4327** Posted **Feb 22, 2016, 10:54 PM**

Lol, you and your desire for Yorkville to be some urban oasis for the uber rich. Well, they can shop at Nordstrom Rack for idems they can't find at Winners.

Funny you say that, because the Nordstorm Rack will look like this..

urbantoronto

I'll be scooping up my 20 dollar "Winnersque"-"Marshallsque" dress pants and Rockports 10 at a time here..

Also, a step up from Yonge-Dundas.

OMG.. Surprise to you and me. They were testing LED lighting at Nordstorms last night.. lol!

Apparently, there will be a lot more strips of LED than those pictured...

Quote:

I think there will be quite a few more LED strips running horizontally at varied lengths. I think they are just testing them.

H&M unveils revamped Eaton Centre store

Quote:

Toronto's flagship H&M revealed its new look at a swanky party last night, featuring Alessia Cara and DJ Taryn Manning (a.k.a. Pennsatucky from Orange is the New Black) before opening for the public this morning.

Along with clothing for all ages, this recently renovated H&M outpost, which is among the top ten largest H&Ms in the world, features affordable (and adorable) homeware, making it a sort of fast-fashion department store.

You quoted me. Nordstrom Rack is not a Nordstrom. Unlikely leases would allow alterations to the exterior as well.

Then you interrupted with some nonsense...

Then I posted the comparison... which had nothing to do with your off tangent remark.

1.

2.

3.

Yorkville gets the fancy glass, not Yonge and Dundas. NOTHING TO DO WITH YORKVILLE BEING SHOPPING SPOT FOR THE SUPER RICH>

WhipperSnapper · #**4335** Posted **Feb 26, 2016, 10:31 PM**

Yeah, I responded by reminded you Yorkville is getting a Nordstrom Rack liquidator compared to Yonge & Dundas which is getting a Nordstrom designed to Nordstrom specs. You then quoted me with a picture of the Nordstrom Rack. Don't suddenly say your post was directed to something else.

You don't need to sell as some uber rich enclave. Everyone knows it isn't.

caltrane74 · #**4336** Posted **Feb 26, 2016, 10:43 PM**

Listen if you want to take about riches, come and join me in my stock trading thread. I need your help... lol!

btw the most expensive condo in Yorkville is $30 million dollars. If that's not super rich, I don't know what is, that's more than anything in Calabasas, The Oaks or Hidden Hills and those are real enclaves of the super rich.

WhipperSnapper · #**4337** Posted **Feb 26, 2016, 10:50 PM**

And there are thousands of mid range units.

I bought some dress pants for 10 bux at H & M, can only use them to the club, cause I can't use them in full light situations, but they are good for grinding up on chicks at the club.. so.. - Better dress pants at Winners/Marshall's for cheap..as well. maybe 30 to 40 bux....

Anyways, I was down at the Eaton Centre last night and they are testing out the LED wall at the Nordstorms, they actually have activated 3 of the strips but I assume more are coming..
