Back in January we covered the launch of the Nicholas Residences. Originally the tower was calling for 29 stories, but now they’ve released another 6 floors bringing it to a total of 35! If you missed your chance to purchase earlier in the year, now is a perfect time to choose between a limited selection of 1 and 2 bedroom suites. Only 54 units are being made available in this final release at Nicholas Residences.
The building will feature architectural design by CORE Architects and interiors complemented by Cecconi Simone. Residents will be surrounded by floor to ceiling windows and either a Balcony, French Balcony or Terrace. The 9 foot ceilings will be capped with a smooth finish. Owners can select between pre-engineered wood flooring or German engineered high performance wide plank laminate flooring. Parking is available for almost every suite!
Contact us if you’d like to call the Nicholas Residences home!
With the excitement of World Cup only days away, Louis Vuitton managed to capture a bit of the lime light with their new World Cup carrying case! Launched last week Asnieres, (just outside Paris) the case will feature the Louis Vuitton signature brown background and the famous LV monogram… we think the new case is much more fashionable than the aluminum case previously used by FIFA!
The case is a one of one and made solely to transport the World Cup. The trophy stands 36.5 centimetres (14.4 inches) tall and is made of 5 kg (11 lb) of 18 carat (75%) solid gold with a base (13 centimetres [5.1 inches] in diameter) and looks verrry comfortable in it’s new home!
For your own Vuitton handbag, check out it’s Yorkville Store at 111 Bloor Street West Toronto, ON M5S 1P7 - (416) 968-3993

Last Thursday the Gumball 3000 Rally stopped in Yorkville for the night! The weather held up just long enough for Torontonians to take in the exotic sights of tricked out Lambo’s, Ferrari’s and even a few Bentley’s. For those that missed it, Toronto photographer Dan G. snapped some high calibre cinematic photos of the cars as the sun was setting. Check them out below as well as some other sights BloorCondos.com saw at Gumball 3000!
