There has been a rumour that Ellis Don is going to handle the construction of 155, but I'm not sure if that is the case.

Exciting to see the streetscape change.

Old-timey-fication isn't really something to be excited about imo...

What's old timey about a tower raising in the background?

Ah haha, well I thought you were looking at the lamppost in the foreground, but the topic of this channel should have cleared up that improper assumption, my bad Smile

I do agree that the streetlights are awful, but I guess that is what we've decided to go with. Kind of a shame that we can't have a more modern look.

I like it, think it looks classy, we should have more of that imo, everybody has their preferences though, I respect that.

I do like the ones in DTK.

Did I miss the memo about the private residences being taller than 144? It certainly looks like that is happening.

155 is 22 stories and 144 is 19. I think the original proposal for the double tower proposal had towers of equal height.

The new developer added three more stories to make it viable. All three of the top floors are quite large, penthouse style units.

Which usually are much harder to sell, in most buildings. But maybe in this case they have a lot of demand for those, driving the decision.

It's my understanding that they are past 85% and I think most of the big ones have been taken.
