RE: One Victoria | 63 m | 19 fl | Complete - GtwoK - 10-19-2016 Some hanging sign have gone up, hanging from the overhang over the patio. There's one for Scotiabank, and one right at the end next to Ziggy's, but it wasn't for Settlement. Anyone know if someone else is going in?

I doubt they get many pedestrian customers to merit a prime downtown site. They have storage lockers there too, probably is attractive to people nearby who want storage but not too far away (10-19-2016, 02:31 PM)urbd Wrote: It's such a shame that street trees were not added or required by the city in this location... walking along that sidewalk/patio space (patio for Scotiabank, for that matter) is not a nice experience at all. Hopefully they will add some big planters to make up for it, and maybe Settlement will also add some patio tables to that barren streetscape. The nice side of not having trees or patio tables is a lot of sidewalk room for pedestrians instead of token stunted trees.

Settlement will be on the Victoria St frontage, to the right of Scotiabank... that other sign is for some Waterloo Region Commerce Association or something like that. Pretty random.

RE: One Victoria | 63 m | 19 fl | Complete - GtwoK - 10-25-2016 Scotia looks ~80% complete. ATMs were all up and running inside, some flat panels mounted on the walls, etc. Looked like just some minor interior things and furniture, and it'd be done! Not sure what's taking Settlement so long. RE: One Victoria | 63 m | 19 fl | Complete - urbd - 10-27-2016 (10-25-2016, 06:36 PM)GtwoK Wrote: Scotia looks ~80% complete.

Not sure what's taking Settlement so long. Someone from Abe Erb/Settlement told me that they were starting construction sometime in October, and I walked past it the other day and it seems that they have started with some preparation.

They make the best cappuccino I've ever tasted - office is within a block of there so my monthly coffee shop expense is about to swing wildly out of control! RE: One Victoria | 63 m | 19 fl | Complete - tomh009 - 03-28-2017 Anyone here living at 1 Victoria? I thought someone was, but now I can't find the reference ... RE: One Victoria | 63 m | 19 fl | Complete - tomh009 - 04-01-2017 Thanks -- PM sent! RE: One Victoria | 63 m | 19 fl | Complete - KevinL - 07-18-2017 A mural-style artwork has gone up above Hall's Lane! Looks to be on a 'barnraising' theme. ![]()
RE: One Victoria | 63 m | 19 fl | Complete - panamaniac - 07-19-2017 The City required them to install an artwork? RE: One Victoria | 63 m | 19 fl | Complete - Spokes - 07-19-2017 If the city required it, and picked the location, I wonder if it's with a future vision of Halls lane in mind? I personally don't see a need for it to be honest, but that's just me. RE: One Victoria | 63 m | 19 fl | Complete - panamaniac - 07-19-2017 When do we "need" art? (Pause for moment of profound contemplation)
