If you think the ad is bad wait 'til you take a look at the floorplans. Ultra high density living in some of the worse utilization of space I've ever seen in a cubicle floorplan. The show suite doesn't impress either, everything feels so cheaply built. A complete waste of my 15 minutes.

While on the topic of weird ads -

The 'retro' ads with the big bazooms?

WDF?

What is that an ad for?

Totally agree about the high annoyance factor of these ads.

Just had a look at the website to find out what these are really all about.

Wow, I really feel bad for anyone who has to fork out 230k for a little sardine tin to call home. That is robbery.

Maybe this is typical condo pricing now, but that is disgusting.

I mean, they wont even be able to access Heritage westbound without going back up to Macleod and then down to Heritage to wait for the turn light. That side road up to Macleod by the oil change place will lined up down to the bottle depot for sure in the morning, probably even lined up right to the condo parking garages.

As for the location, I get a chuckle out of the ads because, Schanks and CO-OP are not even close to what they are promoting. And a quick jaunt to downtown on the C-Train? Yeah, if you can get on a train I suppose it is. Actually, it is bad enough in rush hour trying to get on a Train at Heritage what are they gonna do with all those people added in? Really stupid location for towers like that.
They are building a huge parking garage right off of McLeod just north of where the showcase building currently is (you know, the building with all the union jacks and pictures of lips), so people will be able to access Northbound McLeod right off of the intersection next to the Carriage House Inn.

Their continual plugging of Toms House of Pizza - Pizza made to perfection by that advert whore Rob Kerr.

Toms House of Pizza must be owned by the CP Unlimited dudes because that is about what it tastes like, except its 2X as much.

**Oops, guilty of selective reading, I thought this was a post on the most annoying F960 ads and not just the London one. I apologize for going off topic. Everytime the London commercial comes on I think of Austin Powers and his Powers Shagville 747.

Is that "I like London" song a real song? Or was it made just for the condos?
