What a beautiful day in Toronto. I love the heat.
I took the above photo this morning from the 7th floor of Junction House. It is a view south toward High Park. More specifically though, it is the view from the second and upper floor of what will ultimately become suite 607 (a suite that happens to be still available for sale).
Now that the building is almost topped out, I'm planning to run through a bunch of the suites with my camera and photograph all of the different views. I don't think I've seen something like this done before and I think it could be a pretty cool little photography project.

Buildings take a long time. Slate started investing in the Yonge & St. Clair area in 2013 and we acquired the first parcel for One Delisle in 2015. And here we are now in 2022. When it's all said and done, it'll be over a decade.
So it's important to celebrate the milestones when you can, and we did that today with the official ground breaking event for One Delisle. It takes an army of smart and dedicated minds to realize a project like this, so a huge thanks to everyone involved. You know who you are.
Today was a real milestone. But I'm looking forward to concocting some others so that we have more reasons to celebrate as we complete this very rewarding marathon.

Today, Slate Asset Management announced its latest condominium project: Corktown. Named after its neighborhood, Corktown is located in downtown Hamilton just south of the GO Centre station.
If you're a longtime reader of this blog, you might remember that I first wrote about this site a few years ago when we were just starting community engagement.
Since then, the design has evolved to include a tower on the southeast corner of the block (pictured above) and a mid-rise building along John Street South. This site is also now fully zoned.
So it's go time. Phase one, called Corktown East, will launch this summer and condo pre-registration is live as of today. To register, head over here.
