The Fantasy Vision

Does everyone remember this among the wonderful ads and brochures and how about the salespeople and what they told us. I hear such fantasies continue. So after watching and remembering, cry and then laugh at the truth that is being exposed.









And, if the above is not enough and you need elevated blood pressure, here is the project's brochure.

Many posts are still issues and need to be read once again. At this main hub of postings watch for new posts and updates. Please get involved by spreading the word as to the issues here. We must document all that is taking place. Many documents need retrieval and assistance is needed in getting them scanned and posted.

Soho Central: A Plaything for the developers?

Soho Central:  A Plaything for the developers?

Our building has been declining and has been going through changes that seem endless.  The situation gets worse by the month. When will the condominium corporation be under the control of the Unit Owners? Armando Ang, author of Guide to Homeownership, was right in that developer controlled buildings go down in value and Unit Owner controlled buildings go up in value.

READ Ang's book!  Here is a quote among the 516 pages from page 15-16:

"One of the well-kept secret of the developers is not to show the documents that could turn off prospective buyers until it is too late for them to complain.  These documents include the contract to sell, the deed of sale, the master deeds and the deed of restrictions.  Many of the provisions are one-sided and served to perpetuate the power of the developer over the buyers for years to come."

Mayflower Tower 4th Floor Balcony


Please read the previous piece on this situation:  http://sohocentralcondominium.blogspot.com/2013/03/more-cracks.html

While we had all seen the metal scaffolding hanging from the building on the Mayflower Tower side, were we aware of the damage to the property of the Unit Owners?  The top most part of that wall acts as the railings do on all other balconies.  Imagine if they arbitrarily decided to place clamps and metal scaffolding on your balcony railings.  We will get up close photos of the concrete railing walls for posting.

There are many issues that need to be addressed at the 2013 Annual Meeting.  Start writing extensive, clear and to the point questions and statements for the Board of Directors and Members (Unit Owners) of the Soho Central Condominium Corporation on August 30th.  Thank you.

The Unit Owners on the 4th floor of the Mayflower Tower as elsewhere in the building need to read all documents such as the Master Deed.  Here is a quote from the Master Deed.

Section 3


"b) Nothing shall be done or placed in any Unit or in the common and limited common areas which would jeopardize the safety or impair the structural strength of the building.  Nor shall any alteration, change or modification of the architectural character of the building be made without the written consent of the Condominium Corporation and of the Unit owners directly affected by said work, if any;"


It seems someone or entities violated the Master Deed.  Should lawyers be called?
