I could add far, *far* worse as a fifteen-plus year resident of the area but not worth the effort. Hopefully the next director is somewhat less septic.

L.L. Bean is all set up and will open on the lower level at Manulife on Friday. Edit: As Northern Light already mentioned in the Manulife thread!

I give it a year. I think they've misjudged the "luxury" of the local area.From their website: "As a private, members-only club, AVANT grants membership through a selective application process to ensure alignment with our values, community standards, and commitment to excellence"
I have a feeling that particular 1BE 2nd floor will end up having a lot of turnover over the coming years.

Agreed. Essentially saying "we're probably too good for you" from the outset when other options are available nearby isn't a brilliant strategy.

I wonder if they require prospective members to submit a photo of themselves, bust/waist/hip measurements and attestation of their account balance.

You have to wonder
Think Temu and "shop like a billionaire"... No billionaire is buying their crap!
How businesses decide to market like this. Clearly it's to people that want to feel special, but aren't. Truly rich are likely have a boutique studio/personal trainer.

The big question that's been on my mind is how all these businesses can survive when most condos have gyms. It's definitely a lifestyle sale, which is how the exclusive members-only side will go, but the competition (with Equinox at Yorkville Village and soon-to-open Sweat & Tonic at 11 Yorkville) will be fierce.Avant fitness centre have opened in the former Nordstrom Rack space at 1 Bloor East

We now have two of the corners set, with lululemon & Smeg on the northwest and Avant/Nike/Ballroom on the southeast. Any word on the apple space and does anyone have any insights into what's happening with the former HBC site that's been sitting empty for years now? There's gotta be something in the works.
