Pumphouse update. Looks like they (smartly) decided against adding that monstrosity of an entrance awning at the ThinkShift entrance. It also def looks like it's just an elevator in the separate column thing.
Website has nothing yet but signs say 1 BR starting at $1400 and 2BR Penthouse at $2650 :| ...all utilities and internet included though.

It looks kinda cool and unique - but that's some serious rent for an OSB and 2x6 box on stilts with suicide stairs, fully exterior access and the entrance into your suite via the bedroom.

I agree but remember they are selling the amazing river view and the waterfront drive location, AND the history of the pumphouse as a cool factor. [Can't believe it's not called the "cool dunes cool rooms"]. Most people won't know they are living in a box made of popsicle sticks and cardboard. And most people won't care. I believe there is a market for these trendy (but awkward) units.

Agreed, but at least they're rentals and not condos.
Maybe they could've switched sides where the elevator tower and stairs are located. I just don't find the stairs appealing. My opinion I guess. Looks like they just tacked it onto the side as cheaply as possible. if they intent to ply homage to fire escapes on old buildings, well done.
Overall though, the building is decent. 2 level suites with rooftop patio is definitely cool.
Is the suite entrance actually through the bedroom? Like those houses with the patio doors in the master? Or is there some kind of hallway? Would be super awkward bringing everyone in through the master..
Wow those look horrible. $1400 for a 500 sqft Ikea box with an open-air entrance through your murphy bed bedroom? That's a hard pass.
The cabinetry looks to be the same crap that was used in 62M which was of the lowest possible quality, could see all the screws and fasteners from the outside, and all started falling apart within a year.
Is this development going to have any modern building amenities like a gym, rooftop/private terrace for entertaining, anything? Yikes.
Levels 2, 3, and 4 are single storey suites. Level 5/6 suites are 2 storey. Entry to level 3 suites, is via a doorway and staircase on level 2. So the suites on level 3 don't enter through the bedroom.
Apparently phase 2 (the 1st residential building) was 90% leased within 10 hours. All penthouse units have a rooftop hot tub. All units include all utilities, including internet.

The floorplans in this building are horrendous. Why are the toilets pretty much in the kitchen, only will be separated by a sliding glass door. Not ideal for taking a dump while entertaining.
