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!
I’m eagerly awaiting the housewarming party invite. And by eagerly, I mean my finger is hitting the refresh button on repeat.
(and congrats to your friends)
Wow, looks awesome!
Where is it?
Hey! Congrats on the new house! I can’t wait to see it!
You just leveled up +30 on my friends list 😉
Mike, treat my bros house nice…..I know your sisters if you don’t! Just kidding. It’s good Joel has found tennants already LOL.
@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.
I am going to burn that motha down.
Wait a minute – so if you don’t treat Joel’s house nicely, Ryan’s going to beat up your sisters?
MIKE, YOU TREAT THAT HOUSE LIKE GOLD, YOU HEAR ME?
