Tower or low-rise in Pickering
The new towers in Town Centre and Bay Ridges offer the commute, amenities and a warranty still in force, but many suites are investor-owned, the first-year budgets can understate real costs, and fees tend to rise once the developer hands over the corporation. The older buildings in Bay Ridges and along Glenanna offer larger rooms, in-suite storage and settled budgets, with the roof, windows, balconies and underground garage being the items to read in the reserve fund study. In both cases confirm whether parking is owned or assigned, whether the corporation limits short-term rentals, and how many units are tenanted. Then walk the route to the GO platform at the hour you would use it and stand on the balcony with the window open to hear the 401 and the rail line.
