The location of this condo is really convenient. You have access to the DVP, Gardiner, and great transit options nearby. 

It is too new to have a reputation, but from what I've heard from residents in the building, management can be unresponsive at times. 

Things I like:
- Great views all around
- High-quality finishes
- Awesome amenities
- Low maintenance fees

Things to consider:
- Future construction both South and West of the building
- Some of the two-bedroom units have lousy layouts
- Nearby highway can be noisy
