March 2023...

Another wet winter has created challenges for our crews, particularly the roofers. While we finalize the completion of our roofing over the last quadrant of our massive building, plumbers, electricians, drywallers and many other trades are working on the initial phases in preparation of our display suites.

The kitchen and bathroom cabinet manufacturers along with the quartz countertop people are very busy offsite.

We’ve had many questions regarding our “Quartz” choice for countertops. What is Quartz and why did we choose it over Granite or for our homeowners?

Both high end countertops, Quartz is a natural material found in the earth. It is the second most abundant material in the earth’s crust. This mineral forms when silicon crystallizes over thousands of years. Our countertops are made from engineered quartz, an engineered stone that combines over ninety percent crushed quartz with resin to tailor the shape and style and bind the materials together.  Quartz is less porous than granite, so it works best in areas that will have more moisture and requires no maintenance. Granite, although equally beautiful does require some maintenance and is recommended by suppliers to reseal granite annually to prevent staining. Quartz offers consistency in color and grains throughout where granite has many different shades and inconsistent grains making it difficult to maintain similarities though out our development.

With a building this size, our experts have commenced the construction of 2 elevators in our lobby, yes 2 elevators to avoid waiting times and meet the needs of our homeowners.

All condominium units come with 1 parking stall and 1 storage lockers which will be assigned with consideration to the location of the suite. A second parking stall and a second storage locker will be optional while supply’s last. All parking stalls will have rough ins for charge stations. We’ve used energy saving lighting in the entire underground parking area that brightens with motion sensors when activated by a vehicle or person. With 4 years of planning, our developer has thought of everything.
