Pros & Cons

N3 Pros and Cons

From the building facts on this page. We don't publish owner reviews; ask us what recent buyers and the condo documents say.

Pros

  • About 255 m from City Hall CTrain station, roughly a 3-minute walk.
  • East Village has a Walk Score of 79, so daily errands can be done on foot.
  • Newer building (completed 2017), so major components are still early in their life.
  • Reported features include no resident parking stalls: the building is designed around walking, cycling and transit, walking distance to City Hall CTrain station, Downtown and the RiverWalk.

Cons & what to check

  • Newer buildings have a shorter track record of fees and reserve fund planning to judge.
  • With no parking, resale appeals to a narrower group of buyers; check recent sales and days on market, and look at nearby monthly parking costs if you ever need a car.
