Places like this usually have a pre-sales period for preferred customers. I'd presume the majority of those units were sold then.

Interesting to see that the 3rd floor is most popular.

Price point, stairway use, and up into the tree cover (with luck, eventually)?

It most certainly is.

The second photo makes it show how much it makes sense to be doing construction on King now, if it's already torn up, why not take advantage of that. I hope King's Crossing does the same and plans to start while King is all ripped up.

I hope the same. Does anyone who knows about such things have an idea about when ground will be broken for this project?

Wouldn't it be difficult to get equipment, materials, and people in to the particular site if king is torn up for extended periods?
Everyone move to the back of the bus and we all get home faster.

There's access at the back through Walter St. so this wouldn't be an issue.

I'm thinking that the people who live on Walter Street might take issue with this.

I don't think they have a say on this. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

They ought not, its on the opposite side of King from this development. They were vocal on the (lots adjacent to) King Edward development though..

Walter Street was brought up in reference to the King's Crossing development near Walter and Wellington, and the fact that Walter can provide access to that site from the back.

No one likes a temporary increase in traffic along their street due to a construction project, but BuildingScout is right that the residents don't really have a say in it. There are rules concerning time of day, noise, so on, but residents of a street can't say that a project can not make use of a public road to bring in equipment or workers.
