Return to the Construction Projects list.
Concert Properties has received approval for a 15-storey residential tower on the site of the Mozart Building proposal on Yates Street between the Odeon Theatre and the Canada Post building. The plan envisions an increase in the width of Millie’s Lane (Odeon Alley), addition of retail units along the lane and tower podium, and protection of a heritage building facade currently occupying a portion of the property.
The proposal received approval after a public hearing held in June, 2011.
Initially the proponent had planned to construct a 12-storey, 47.1 meter, office tower on the same lot.

Mar 04, 2012 at 4:27 pmSales are off to a strong start; 40 units (out of approximately 155) were sold yesterday and the studios on the upper floors (as well as most penthouses) are generally *sold out*.
The unit finishes are quite nice for an 'entry level' building.

The studios, for a studio, have a nice layout and with only 5% down for first time buyers I am not surprised they are moving. Plunk down $10,000 to $12,000 and wait three years. Enough time to save up for a 20% downpayment.
I took a pretty good look at the kitchens, overall, I would say definitely better design/quality than the834 or the Mondrian; however, the Promontory kitchens are quite a bit better (superior appliances, built in and included TV, more cabinet space, and various other things like the kitchen island side is finished off with an engineer stone versus wood panel).

Apr 28, 2012 at 10:34 amI am not keen on the faux wood grain cabinetry, but the overall look is clean and contemporary. Not bad for the starting prices. I hope this one breaks ground, or more appropriately (since the ground is already broken here), gets going in earnest soon.
