Two bedrooms will be available, but I think it's brilliant what he's doing -- sure, we get students and professionals and people who can afford this but want to buy a condo, not a co-op or the like - and it dignifies the use of small spaces as a choice, not as forced.

Also, by offering this size and price, he's also going to get people who aren't North American who understand this size, scale and use of space - and bring a better perspective on it to our downtown.

Now if we only had 10 of these buildings, each with 10% subsidized housing in them... (and don't think the worst of that, it could be truly integrated, lots of seniors and singles who are quiet and mind their own business but need a safe and beautiful place). I can dream.

"This is the true joy in life, the being used for a purpose... being a force of nature instead of a feverish, selfish little clod of ailments and grievances complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy." - G.B. Shaw
