Operation: Party Mansion is GO

Operation: Party Mansion just got the green light from reality:  today, my two friends, Joel and Julian, purchased a house.

So that’s phase one.  Within a few weeks, they’ll be in possession of a killer downtown Toronto property, and eventually they’ll begin renovations.

Blueprints and specs have already been meticulously examined, and plans for a dramatic renovation of the house are already being made.

By September, I (along with 3 other friends) will have moved into the renovated house.  The apartment we’ve had near College and Spadina has served us well for 4 years, but it’s too small, and we desperately want the new space.

And man, did we get space.

Deck #1.  There'll be more.

More photos soon.

A massive thanks to Julian Rabideau and Joel Beck for making this thing a reality.  It takes guts to buy your first house, and you guys hit a home run for us, first time at bat.  Big congrats!  I’m looking forward to moving in!

    @Andrew: Thanks! Will let them know!

    @David: Near Christie Pitts, between Bloor and College (not sure how much info I want to give away… there are crazy people on the internet. :) )

    @Kris: Me too! I haven’t seen it yet, except photos. I’ll probably give the area a walk-about soon, though.

    @Geofrey: Thanks! :)

    @Ryan: Will do – I’m no rough-houser. Now, that Nick character…that’s a whooooole other story.

    Wait a minute – so if you don’t treat Joel’s house nicely, Ryan’s going to beat up your sisters?
