Flat Update Mar 1, 2008

Hello everyone,

When we first bought our place in Burnaby, we went to visit it every Sunday for the 1.5 months before we moved in (it was a new build as well, but already built when we bought it). Well, going every Sunday for 1.5 YEARS seems a bit odd, kind of stalker like, so we are trying to only go every month. We thought it would be fun to take pics every month to track its development. Man, we are so geeky!

Anyways, we went out yesterday to visit and was surprized to see how much had been done! The 2nd building is up to the 6th floor now so you can see how it will look. Again, ours is the corner unit on the top (6th) floor of the right hand building, looking NW towards Canary Wharf and the Thames. They even have some of the balconies on, although still covered in cardboard, but we were happily surprized by how big they are!

We also went for lunch in Woolwich and again were happy to see that it is bustling little high street and market. Mind you, they arent the yuppies walking around Clapham, but at least people are up and out. It was a nice sunny afternoon by this time and the high street was quite pleasant. I guess seeing it at its worst during a rainy Sunday in Jan makes it look pretty darn good now :) Its not Clapham, but its not as bad as it seemed before, so thats great!
