Will the rooftop party room be open all year round?
Yes, it is heated and cooled so you can enjoy the blissful lake views across all the seasons.

What is included on the rooftop terrace?
There will be green areas, seating, tables and gas barbeques for use by all the residents.

What is the work from home library?
The work from home library is a warm and welcoming communal space with a relaxed coffee-house vibe where you can
work from home peacefully. Come by if you are meeting a team or simply if you need a change of scenery from your suite.
Included are booths and free-standing chairs and tables.

Will all building amenities including the gym, rooftop terrace, party room, and work-from-home library be
finished and ready for use upon occupancy?
Yes, all amenities will be open and available for residents to use and enjoy at the time of occupancy.

Is there a separate storage area for my bicycle and other belongings?
Yes, there are both lockers for golf clubs, skis, etc. and a bike storage area for your bike.

How will the building security and access work?
Access to the building will be restricted. To enter, residents must use their security card. Guests must phone the resident
to unlock the door. This same security card will be used for entering the locker rooms, bike storage and exercise room.

Is there WIFI in the building?
There will be WIFI available in all amenity areas. Within the suites, residents are responsible for their own internet
service.

I heard you’re using a heat pump system. Will this stand up to North Bay’s cold, northern climate?
Heat pumps work well in northern climates. The system features a heat pump in each suite, with a heat pump loop and
boilers sized for North Bay’s demanding temperatures, plus an extra margin of safety. We realize that in North Bay during the spring and fall, some like it hot and some do not; with individual heat pumps in
each unit, each resident can independently decide what temperature they wish to maintain.

What type of insulation and soundproofing will be installed between the units?
The building will be constructed in accordance with the Ontario Building Code for a sound transmissions class (STC)
rating of 50 between units. This is a large amount of noise reduction (in the range of 40 dB). Before construction starts,
the design is tested using noise and vibration modelling software to confirm it meets this requirement.

Where do we put our household waste?
There are two garbage chutes on every floor. One chute is for recyclables only.

Are pets allowed in my condo?
Yes. No weight limit and no limit of number of pets allowed per condo.
