In January, I posted a 2 bedroom, 3 bathroom unit that was for sale in the Shangri-La Residences at 180 University Avenue.

It wasn't the only unit available at the time, but I think it was only about 1 of 5 (maybe a bit more).  So if you were looking, there wasn't a lot of choice.

It's now nine months later and things have changed.

There are currently 36 units of the 353 total units for sale in the Shangri-La!!!

Yup, THIRTY SIX!

Or 10% of the condo units!

That's up by 5 units even from just 6 days ago when there were only 31 for sale!!!!!

The 36 units range in price from $710,000 to $4,395,600.

So, what gives?  Is it the falling glass?

And last week wasn't the first time glass has fallen from the building.  Just 8 days after my January post, glass also fell from the Shangri-La.

The falling glass is probably a little disconcerting for the residences, but it isn't the first building in Toronto to have this happen.

So, is this just a coincidence?

Is it a sign of the condo doomsday that people keep talking about?

It's probably just coincidence (though the listing of those 5 new units since last week is kind of interesting).

Whatever the reason....

Perhaps it's time to stop building with this glass that can't handle the weather extremes in Toronto!!!

Just because Beyonce likes to rock a hard hat...

Doesn't mean I want to wear one everyday.

And clearly, neither do the residents at the Shangri-La.
