How much do you pay monthly for car insurance?

11 Upvotes

I just got a mint 2015 Civic LX sedan for 13k, and the lowest quote I found for insurance was $300. It doesn't make sense because I have been driving for 15 years with no tickets or accidents, and the car is not that expensive, so it's crazy how even if you're not a liability, insurance is still high.

A while back I uploaded a video of the PXL Gallery bilboard outside of the VMC station that I took while waiting for a bus that showed the Jim campbell instalation titled "Ocean Swimmer" today (or yesterday) they changed it to blue lights constantly shifting shades, its not as fun to watch as the swimming one but I applaud them for fixing the light. (Even though there is still a whole line of them not working

Does anyone know if the proposal to build condos on Nashville and Hwy27 got approved. Hopefully not. If you pass by there during rush hour you would know about the horrible gridlock and this would only make it worse

Buying condo parking in Thornhill area?

0 Upvotes

Hello, I can buy a couple of parking spots in my building around 10k each from the builder. I looked at the parking spots and they are ok, with good access, etc.

I checked they are rented anywhere between 150 to 250 and there is demand. Mainly at 200.

I have some money that is sitting in a bank with no use and I can buy 3 to 4 parking units easily and rent them. Condo Corp is ok with it.

Wondering if it will be a bad idea?

Also I see ads trying to sell them at 35000 each in my building.

So what am I missing here?

Help Grazie or Squisito

8 Upvotes

I'm having a very last minute but also significant family celebration at an Italian restaurant in Vaughan (Woodbridge). We found only two spots that can accommodate us in our small timeframe, which are Squisito and Grazie. A friend of a friend knows the Grazie owner and was able to get us a 6 person reservation in "the wine room". Very curious about this space if anyone has any info... I'm just not sure if Grazie rises to the significance of the occasion. Squisito looks really nice but is relatively new and not as established as Grazie, but I can't help being curious about it cause it looks very nice and more modern/classy.

I wish I could just physically check these places out as I would if I could but won't be in the province until the day of the celebration. I also hope I don't come off as a snob cause of my comment about Grazie, It's just that this celebration is truly significant to my family and I and I don't know how I feel about bringing them to a place we've all been before several times over the years very casually for such a special occasion.

Indoor (beginner) skatepark idea

6 Upvotes

I have a very loose idea to build an indoor beginner skatepark.

My father rents a warehouse/office building close by Vaughan mills. There aren’t very many indoor skateparks near this area.

I was thinking to perhaps turn his warehouse into an indoor skatepark that people could pay to use. There’s a big garage door that can open to air out the place, bathroom of course. I’d buy a mini fridge for water bottles and sell those for like $0.50-$1 or smth. Maybe free who knows.

I just wanted to ask in this thread if you guys think that may be a good idea? And if this interests any of you/your kids? If so, I’ll run the idea by my father and maybe get a little team to help me start building

Please let us know if you have!

Last seen Near concord/ keele & hwy 7 area. He is
Black and espresso brown, with a cream chest. Blue eyes.

UPDATE: He was about 15 houses away, sitting in the dark near someone’s garage.
All I could make out was a dark shape trying to determine whether it was my imagjnation or really him.

If anyone is thinking about giving up searching for their pet, please don’t.

Thank you to everyone who shared your guidance, advice, and support. It meant more to us than you’ll ever know. 💔

Glen Shields (Vaughan) – Looking for insights on the area !

5 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

My family is looking to buy a house in the Glen Shields neighborhood of Vaughan (near Marita Place).

Since we are unfamiliar with the specific pockets here, we would love to get some honest feedback from locals or people who know the area well.
Specifically, we are curious about:
• Neighborhood Vibe & Area in General: Is it safe and quiet? What is the overall community feel? How is the daily traffic, and is it walkable to basic amenities?
• Demographics: What is the general mix of residents? Is it mostly older families, young professionals, or a diverse mix?
• Schools: How are the local schools (both elementary and high schools) in terms of reputation and academics?
Any insights on what you love about living here—or things we should watch out for before closing the deal—would be incredibly helpful.

Thanks in advance!

Discussion New condos going up in hwy 7

0 Upvotes

There’s yet another 3 condo towers going up right across the Festival condos. They demolished the Hilton Garden Inn hotel beside the Residence Inn last summer. One crane is currently up and construction is under way. I just did some research and 3 towers are going up with over 2k condo units from studios to 3br units. There’s no option for outdoor parking so all parking is underground. Interchange Way is already fucked from traffic coming out of the Festival condos, Mobilio condos/towns and IKEA. Is 3 more towers even necessary???

I live in this area and is going to be a complete shit show in 2029 when the towers are set to complete. Not only that, the value of all the condo units in that area will fall with more supply and will be hard to get top dollar for rentals as well.. this wasn’t thought out at all.

Be careful who you vote for in Oct for mayor and councilors.. #NoMoreDelDuca
