My neighbours in my building are organizing a unit list for kids to go around and get candy tonight (as we do every year).
Condos are communities, just as much as any neighbourhood.

Visited the showroom of Atella, who make “pre-engineered modular garden suites”. Really nice product. Impressed at how fast it can be assembled on-site, and their everything but the furniture pricing.

Had a great time tonight chatting with the Harvard Village Residents Association about my dog Maddie and all the various changes that have come to Toronto planning policy over the last year or so.

Very happy to have gotten my client’s new 4plex approved today at Committee of Adjustment. Garden suite was already under construction (almost done). Massive property that will be put to much better use. Ready to be 6plex, when council allows.
