📸 Photos of the Week 📸 This week’s featured images, courtesy of UrbanToronto.ca contributor drum118, highlight the progress of Alba Condos’s podium from August (bottom image) to September (top image). Before long, this 32-storey condo will rise above Mississauga’s transit-rich City Centre, offering breathtaking views of Lake Ontario. Notably, it will also house the deepest under-parking borefield ever drilled—now fully operational! As shown in the top image, the construction team has completed the first six floors, with the 7th level podium nearing completion. Decking at the east end is ready for an imminent concrete pour atop the podium, which will form the base for the future outdoor amenities. We're proud to have partnered with Edenshaw Developments on this record-breaking project, poised to cut carbon emissions by 80% compared to gas-heated buildings. Construction is scheduled for completion in 2025. #Geothermal #Construction #Sustainability #Condos #RealEstate

We love a site tour day 😍 Last week, we spent time in Redhill, Surrey looking at the latest conversion project that the Mountbatten Estates team are building out. We heard from the Planning & Architectural guys, who talked us through plans for each unit, as the space permits a mix of HMOs, flats and houses 🔥 We love a 6 bed HMO and there’s going to be more than 1 on this site, if anyone else is looking to invest? 😏👂🏽 #mlpropertyventure #property #sitetour #propertyinvestors #propertydeals #propertydevelopment #ukpropertyinvesting #ukpropertymarket #ukproperty

If you saw our stories from earlier this week you saw that we are ALL about DEMO this week. It can be one of the most exciting days in the world of renovations. WHY? A few reasons! Fresh Start: Demolition marks the beginning of a brand-new transformation, clearing the way for exciting changes. Hidden Potential: It's a chance to discover the underlying structure, offering valuable insights that can improve the final design. Stress Relief: Let’s face it – there’s something satisfying about tearing down the old to make way for the new. It’s therapeutic for both the crew and clients! Progress in Action: Demo days are the first big step forward, providing tangible progress that brings the renovation vision closer to reality. Unexpected Surprises: Sometimes you uncover original features, like brick or beams, that can be incorporated into the new design for a unique touch. Client Excitement: Watching the demo process often heightens clients' excitement, allowing them to visualize the transformation. What do you love or hate about the demolition process? ▪️ ▪️ ▪️ #RenowithRose #buildwithRose #burlington #Oakville #Waterdown #Ancaster #HamiltonHomes #InteriorHomeDesign #LuxuryHome #LuxuryHomeRenovation #CustomContractor #demodaytips #demolition #homedemo #demoday #freshstart #homerenovationexperts
