Given the nature of the tenants in the co-living space, the turn over will be higher than on average, they will always be looking for more tenants.  The building will have something like 250 residents with an average tenancy of 18 months there will be about 14 units available each month.

 

For this building to be a success, they will need to make sure the building is safe in the long term.  The cost of having constant security on site is minimal compared to the revenues the building brings in.

 

Because my son lives there I am often down at the building at various times of the day.  I have not seen anyone causing any sort of problems.

 

The street culture on Pandora is much improved over the last few years, and  I am certain that will continue.  20 years ago, there was no problem in this area. Over the last close to five years, I have often taken the bus by the worst of the problems on a regular basis at aorund 7 in the morning.  What was happening in 2022 and 2023 is not happening, the city has done a very good job of improving the area.

 

Certainly it is not, and never has been, as bad as the violence was on lower Yates in the 1980s at night.    When I was 20 it was unsafe to walk anywhere near the parkade after 11 pm at night

I had no idea some of the common spaces in this building were so nifty. I gotta give them kudos for going above and beyond on a project that they could have easily phoned in.
