THE TRUTH ABOUT LIVING IN DOWNTOWN TORONTO | MON MODE

[@rickg5597]

I used to sympathized to those who complained about temporary construction noise until a cross fit gym opened right next to my house. Been promised a load of acoustic changes sound/vibration proofing since 2012 and still waiting...

[@MONMODE]

Wow, that is crazy! I can't believe you have to put of with this. Vibration sounds crazy!

[@rickg5597]

MON MODE yeah funny enough my area rep asked for me to be patient since they just opened up their business in 2012. Meanwhile, they actually opened at a previous location not very far from me back in 2008. He rather focus on cracking down on bikes that have been locked up for weeks as opposed to my issue. Anyways, thank you for your concern and I hope condo life has been easier for you of late.

[@TheBohemianStyle]

It is hard to hear you with the music you have playing.

[@aileanonspace]

i think once the construction dies down the dust that makes it to ur condo should decrease. lovely video

[@MONMODE]

Thanks so much Aileen. Its still all the same but hopefully it will quiet down soon, although I am seeing two new developments around my building!!

[@caracre]

Hi. Nice video... great information! I'll be moving to TO in 7 months, so I have to decide where to get an apt... I like downtown, but not noisy construction going on. Should I choose Trinity Bellwood or St. Lawrence Market area or more midtown, in your opinion? (I'm 45 year old single woman into cafes, record shops, museums and library life)

[@MONMODE]

Jamie yes those areas are definitely a lot quieter and also have cuter shops, nice restaurants etc

[@eeebee7420]

They are not alowed to make noise till 7am

[@MONMODE]

I wish! They sure start way before 7am!

[@lisastarves5543]

Iv been there... its so heavy busy in the summer.. time..

[@HumJK]

All of this is super informative! And very true

[@NiaShahzad1]

Aweee... I can see the frustration and can only hope things get better for you somehow!!!

[@emilyktingey]

How did you find your place?

[@MONMODE]

Through a realtor! Check on condos.ca, there you can see whats available and you need a realtor to do the showings!

[@semmix8436]

How much does that condo costs a month ?

[@MarzipanProductions]

(yeah) Can you turn down that music? (yeah) It is illegal to start construction before 7:00 am. (yeah) I live in downtown but don't live in a condo so perhaps you should re-name your video.

[@Endoxist]

Oh great that Construction Noise is alive and well again.

[@MONMODE]

hahah, yup!!

[@eeebee7420]

You might prefer Bay Street condos or Yorkville

[@MONMODE]

I think that would be a great idea! I should have a look there! thanks for the tip!

[@got.o1296]

Yeah where the rich are 😀

[@leslie7872]

Scarborough is better.

[@jayybren]

@Lil Leslie... ha ha

[@leslie7872]

@@jayybren i wasnt kidding. All the cool kids live in Scarborough.

[@adventureswithwool-johanne7755]

Toronto is too damn expensive. There should be better REAL rent controls. You're living in a very expensive box. Forever waiting for an elevator...late for work and events...people have to demand larger units to be built and no taller than 30 floors

[@papanone]

Moving to Toronto in June, witch neighborhoods you recommend?

[@MONMODE]

I just uploaded a new video all about the neighbourhoods in Toronto!!

[@otbway]

Music to loud...I would have given you a thumb down but I respect the hustle and one day you might end up in my Uber car... Lol with more video u'll get better...

[@samirasoltani7852]

Welcome to canada .

[@be-i-ng]

Yikes! condo's in Toronto suck, money making racketeering total waste of money

[@markbrown5117]

Man, you paid to much for your condo. I assume it's really expensive. Were your out of towners before you bought this?

[@MONMODE]

We are actually renting because this is the first time living in Toronto, we moved from Berlin!

[@lisastarves5543]

Party room.. WHAT the fuck is THAT...

[@rickb.341]

stop screwing around in condos and buy a townhouse .. much better.

[@MONMODE]

So true but most of the Townhouses we have seen are really just like condos, no?

[@rickb.341]

no.. mine is nice and quiet.. not unruly neighbors / no smelly circulating vents / no construction constantly. I don't know why people buy condos to be honest...maybe its a cool factor... I dunno... my opinion of course.

[@sandys9104]

Of course only the gullible people pay more than $2000 a month for rent in a condo. What kind of idiot pays for $2200 condo???? Wow some people
