Quick way to finish construction, complicated design though.
Great little hotel infill on what might be the bleakest looking public realms in the city. I love the canyon effect and relative location is super central, but wow is this a hostile place to walk around for future hotel guests.
I'm worried about the impact of tariffs, or even the threat of tariffs and the economic uncertainty that creates, on the financial viability of starting or completing builds.Maybe it was planned to come from the states and they decided to change suppliers?
Euro>AmericanoIf our dollar tanks after tariffs as expected, sourcing materials from the US will become extremely expensive, this could cause major disruptions. Wonder if there European alternatives if there aren't Canadian...
I'm concerned about that too, and I'm sure I'm not the only one who has noticed the lack of new proposals in the last month or so since Trump has ramped up his tariff rhetoric. I would imagine developers are taking a "wait and see" attitude with regard to both the overall economy and material costs, and banks might be more conservative with financing new development until they get a better sense of how this will all play out.I'm worried about the impact of tariffs, or even the threat of tariffs and the economic uncertainty that creates, on the financial viability of starting or completing builds.
