From Tonight Aura Condos
Tallest Condo Tower in Canada Continues with Construction
Interior work is continuing at a fever pitch as brand name retailers work on space assigned to them in the "Shops at Aura" New stores include Marshalls a brand name discount store from the United States in the mold of a "Winners" that we Torontonians would be familiar. Also coming to Aura is the Bed Bath and
Beyond as well as a branch for the Bank of Montreal, which will be conveniently located across the block from the other Branch of the Bank of Montreal. The "Shops at Aura" will connect via underground passage with the existing College Park Mall and will feature a discount store bizarre in the main retail concourse. The work seems to be progressing at a rate that it may come close to meeting the October 5th deadline promised by the developer to its retail tenants.
The quality of the retail amenities seems on par with those of 10 Dundas East (AMC) and the Atrium on Bay, and while nothing to write home about should be enough to animate the street.

The Toronto Condo Boom
The boom in the Toronto Condo industry which began slowly in the late 1990's and picked up steam in the early aughts (00's) has transformed the look and feel of the City. Highrises are sprouting from all areas of the city, mainly the downtown core, but other areas, such as Liberty Village, Etobicoke Shores, Scarborough, Mississauga City Centre and North York Centre are also experiencing rapid condo growth and densification. Part of it is the design of the provincial government, which wants to attain maximum efficiency of use out of publicly funded transit such as GO Transit, the TTC and regional lines. Plus heavy investment in infastructure such as the Airport Line, The Eglinton Crosstown LRT Line, as well as the Union Station Renovation project all of which will make getting into and out of the core far easier then ever before. At the same time providing a real lifestyle choice to those that decide they enjoy downtown living.
