Blatchford

[TAS]

Versus when Blatchford started with its first townhomes - does the architecture style/quality/visual appeal overall seem to be on a downward trend?

I liked Encore a lot - but not sure if the current builds hold up to previous builds.

Is it about desire to keep it more affordable?

For sure. Upward pressure on construction costs and less buoyant real estate market/low rental rates definitely a trend downward.

Yes, I think the desire to somehow try satisfy everyone and not really please anyone is part of the reason this has filled so slowly. This could never really be affordable given the location, but with better architecture style and quality it might have appealed more to those who were not so price sensitive.

I like it. I would live there.

Windows are too small. Increase those and it’ll help a ton.

I'm most curious about how they're planning to interface with the park.

They better have commercial units facing the park. Coffee shop facing the Tomato playground? Amazing.

To the folks complaining about window sizes, large windows can be problematic when it comes to net zero building design.

I wish the net zero component for Blatchford wasn't such a huge priority.
