Photo Updates of River City Phase 1

Mark Savel — Tue, 03 Apr 2012 12:00:35 +0000

During last weeks “peak and enter” at the newly completed Don River Park… I stopped by the River City development to take a few photos of phase one under construction!

The 7 storey River St. building is well underway and already taking shape.

The two storey townhomes line the base of the building along River St.

Here’s a close up of the King St. building… eventually the two will be connected by a bridge!

Interlocking stone was used in the construction of sidewalks and roads for the area!

Looking for more updates from River City? Waterfront Toronto recently relocated one of its web cameras to capture the construction progress of the development! The web camera, which was previously used to capture the construction of Sherbourne Common north, is now on the rooftop of Edge Loft condominiums at 625 Queen Street East. Still images of the site are taken every 15 minutes and can be viewed on Waterfront Toronto’s construction webcam page and on the River City page.

Images are archived and once the project is complete, a two minute time lapse video is created that showcases the transformation of the project from start to finish.

Photos of Underpass Park at River City

Mark Savel — Tue, 08 Nov 2011 14:00:49 +0000

This past weekend, my curiosity got the better of me as wandered around the River City neighbourhood …and in particular, Underpass Park!

I was killing some time in between appointments and trying to find away to snap some pictures of the Don River Park from atop the Adelaide E Bridge. Sadly, I didn’t have much luck as Cole Haans aren’t the most practical shoes for fence jumping or bridge scaling. Although… I was successful in finding a nice little place to park for free (something that’s getting harder and harder in Toronto). With my car tucked away, I had juuust enough time to snap a few photos of the changes under the bridge!

Construction started about 6 months ago on the dreary and dark space under the bridge. Once complete, Underpass Park will be the most extensive park to ever be built under an overpass in Canada. Already concrete has been poured, plants have been planted and jungle sets for the kids installed!

I was happy to see that some of the street art that was on the support coloumns of the bridge are still on site… in fact, I think it would be really cool if all of the columns were wrapped in colourful imagery. Anything is better than boring concrete in my opinion!

In the few months that they’ve been working on it, it’s looking pretty close to the initial renderings (from WaterfrontToronto)! I’ll definitely be going back and taking more pics as progress continues on the park.

This is defintily one of the most exciting parts of town right now and located right next to the park is River City which just recently launched it’s second phase! I have access to prices and floorplans…if you’d like more information, please fill out the form below, I’d be happy to help:

PHOTO FRIDAY – Treviso Condos Breaks Ground

Mark Savel — Fri, 10 Jun 2011 20:51:26 +0000

Receive a special cash discount for a limited time on all purchases in phase 1 and 2! As part of Treviso’s VIP Realtor group I can exclusively offer my clients this promotion PLUS a N’Espresso coffee machine at closing!

On Sunday June 4th, Lanterra Developments held a community party for purchasers and residents in the Dufferin and Lawrence community! The celebration was to mark a milestone for the development…ground breaking!!

I attended the event along with several friends and past purchasers! We were treated to free ice-cream, pizza and drinks (all of which somehow ended up on my shirt). Guests at the party were welcomed by an Italian band playing all the “tarantella” one could ask for!

Mid way through the party Lanterra partners, Barry Fenton and Mark Mandelbaum along with Anne Lambrou (VP of sales for Milborne Real Estate) participated in soil turning ceremony that continued inside with a speech on the success of Treviso Phase 1… did you know, the corner was once owned by Conrad Black?

Construction walls have now been errected around the site to make way for demolition, excavation and shoring! The event also marked the public launch of Phase 2. There were lots of purchasers at the sales centre that day…it looks like phase 2 shouldn’t be too far behind Phase ones success!

Until June 30th, 2011 I’m am able to offer some exclusive promotions. If you purchase with me, you’ll get:

1% discount off the suite price
$4000 towards upgrades
Half priced locker (Regular $5,000 now $2,500)
$0 assignment fee
A N’espresso Espresso machine at closing, offered originally and exclusively when I represent you in the purchase of a unit at Treviso!

Official ground breaking ceremonies will take place at 3pm!

The event will also double as a launch to the general public for Treviso Phase 2. VIP Realtors have had access (and still do) to units since April. If you’d like to purchase before the general public fill out the form below, and don’t forget to check out some of the incentives over here!
