Wow, agree with Great68. Totally looks like a conference centre for a religious cult - one kitchen for each wife! Abomination indeed.

Given the massive garage, what's the purpose of the turntable?

Badhobz 01-12-2023 08:57 AM

for satanic rituals involving said wives and cult

Given the tacky design features everywhere else, I assume it's so you can put a car on it for display like those ones you can buy for AutoArt models.

Probably will be a Chrysler 300 on 22s on there. "It looks just like a Bentley man, it's basically the same"

I take offence to this... I used to drive a 300 when I was 23...

Save $1M and buy this veritable castle in the same neighbourhood: https://www.realtor.ca/real-estate/2...k-bay-gonzales

Pretty nice view!

Lol Mike I can just picture you in there listening to late 90s early 2000s cash money records cruising down Robson.

You're not far off, add some Cam'ron/Dipset to that and you got it :lol

westopher 01-12-2023 10:49 AM

Lol "hey 'ma" by cam'ron was definitely on my "bangin chicks" playlist back in high school. Can't figure out why it was played so rarely.....:okay:

I do agree the 19+ housing is stupid though. You have a kid so you have to move? I can see why it's more annoying in older buildings, but in ours we have kids everywhere and you can't hear a peep. Regardless, it's not only kids that are noisy.

Stratas are talking about making their buildings 55+ in the hope the majority of residents remain owners:

I still like that 300. That e class chassis had decent enough legs to make it dance remotely well for such a large and heavy car. Also hemi.

Yes that’s what I was referencing.

Imo it’s none of the govt. business what the strata votes to do.

Great68 01-12-2023 03:52 PM

Then they'll just get 55+ renters...

Although I could see Eby as the kind of guy to just remove the 55+ exemption altogether in response.

donk. 01-12-2023 03:55 PM

If a building I was interested in had a 19+ rule along with a no dogs rule, that building would be first pick over any other building

The latest program from Eby. $500M to preserve older rental buildings, at the cost of new rentals and new renters (or any renter that needs to change their accommodation).

Great68 01-12-2023 04:21 PM

"Need to keep affordable rental buildings by keeping the hands of developers off of them"

Really just means:

"We'll have a slum-rentals"

westopher 01-12-2023 05:10 PM

If you don't like kids whatever, but if you don't like dogs you're fuckin whack.

Nothing to do with liking or disliking dogs, it's moreso about how some dogs don't shut the fuck up for several hours. Primary if it's past 11pm, and all you hear is bork bork bork bork bork bork bork bork bork until 1am when the neighbor gets back

The best part is the neighbors almost never know how many people their dog is pissing off, because it's silent when they get back

Il see myself out

EvoFire 01-12-2023 06:59 PM

I can see it from Donk's pov. Some dog owners should not be dog owners, just like how some ppl should not have kids. Sometimes it's the dog/kid's fault, but a lot of times it's the owner/parents.

hud 91gt 01-12-2023 07:39 PM

I just got shivers down my spine hearing my moms miniature poodle yap in my head. Most annoying little shit, but man is he awesome.

^^ I thought it was that skinny house that was listed for $900k a while back but this one is 3 years old already.

Hondaracer 01-13-2023 07:30 AM

There is a similar house in east van near trout lake but I can’t remember if that’s a new one or not.

If you’re unsure whether it’s a BG build or not, the low voltage system is always a good indicator. As with this house you see the “smart panel” in the middle of a fucking wall behind that large metal panel however for a 3 year old home this is like the worst type of low voltage system you could install with the least amount of work possible. It’s the case of having your drywaller pull all your data cables.

No fiber, no power, unterminated ends, no rhyme or reason as to where jacks are located. Etc.

BG homes like this seemingly never have a functionality walk through before drywall so people move in and are like where the fuck am I suppose to put a TV etc. because none of the outlet or data jack locations make any sense
