Please take down the swinging stage that you have set up on the exterior of your building. Every time the wind gusts over 30km it causes the ropes to slap against the building, causing an awful racket. This happens regularly during storms and makes it difficult to sleep at night. Oh yeah, did I mention I live three blocks away? I can’t possibly be the only one noticing this! —MPH
This article appears in Feb 25 – Mar 3, 2010.
Maybe the ropes are for the depressed, suicidal people living in that building.
yeah, I was thinking… that thing has to be 60 feet long or more…
why they would leave it up when we have a projected rain and wind storm is beyond me.
I’m waiting for the thing to free fall and smoosh someone into a sidewalk pancake.
I mean, I saw house siding sliding across the street on my way to work this morning….
a flag 6 stories high is certainly going to catch a bit of wind.
I hope the bloody thing takes the entire wretched building down.
I’m with fever on that!!!!
Last night must have been fun then. It’s almost 2PM now and the winds are still gusting.
I had a friend who lived on the 23rd floor, and during a storm in 2001, we went up to his place to feel how much the building was swaying. In all honesty, his overhead lights were swinging at least 4 or 5 cm on either side. That night the winds only reached 80 KM/H. I’d really hate to see the upper floors today, considering we’ve got sustained winds of 60.
It was lucky to survive Juan, given how poorly it’s built.
i am not fond of highrises (towering inferno) but if juan didn’t bring er down i don’t think this little breeze will…the building not the shit ouside
call city hall,or better still,go talk to them.if not,they probly don’t read the coast. would get more response than to whine here to a faceless crowd.
Life sucks,
I have contacted the correct people already. As far as I’m concerned bitching is whining, so if you’re displeased with my tone, I suggest the you click on “Love the Way We Love” next time you’re looking for a little internet entertainment. Better yet, I suggest you never visit this page again because quite frankly all you’re going to read is whining. I was simply posting this to see what kind of response I would get from my fellow bitching Haligonians.
P.S I ask that you look at your keyboard, look closely now, there are two keys I would like you to look for, they are labeled “Shift”. Now, this magical “Shift” button does many wonders, but the one I would like you to focus on is it’s capitalization ability. After a period is placed to end a sentence one can hold in the “Shift” key whilst pressing their first letter to the next sentence and, like magic, capitalization is completed. If you’re having difficultly doing this you can visit http://justfuckinggoogleit.com/ and ask Mr. Google for assistance.

hahahaha.. priceless. LS- do you need further directions as to where everything is on this website? In case MPH wasn’t clear enough, LTWWL as it is referred to by us coasties (or Love The Way We Love if you are unfamiliar………) ……. hahahaha. I am sorry, this was just waaaaaay too funny.
I live in Fenwick Towers and I don’t hear it at all. Also, I live on the 16th floor and don’t feel any swaying in this wind. And finally, I love living here. The supers are incredible, the company is incredible, the people doing repairs on the building are incredible. THe only problem I have are the jackass people who live here who live to write on the elevator walls, or leave garbage around. You’re not being funny you immature bastards, go back and live with your parents.
nda—- how pleasant. Given how poorly Dalhousie treated the property for the 40 years it owned it, you’re lucky it’s not crumbling around you right now. How’s that pool working out for ya?
Come one, come all, gather round, gather round! What we have here is a fine example of the internet tough guy. Often found lurking internet chat rooms or forums displaying his might via grammatically poor verbal attacks. This one calls himself “LIFE SUCKS”, such a great choice of user-name. Judging by the beautiful specimen of automobile in his “avatar” or “display pic” we can see that he is a regular Vin Diesel circa the 2001 movie The Fast and the Furious, pure Lincoln American muscle under that hood boys and girls. I bet that thing can hit 0-60mph in 10 minutes flat, a real head turner! Judging by this one’s poor use of sentence structure and punctuation we can assume he is either 12 years old, or just has the schooling equivalent to a 12 year old. Now please don’t be scared by this one’s lyrical toughness, rest assured knowing that your life is better then there’s. So “LIFE SUCKS” continue to entertain us with your tough guy babble all the while sucking back your E.I cheque and your baby momma’s Child Tax Benefit.
P.S I’m shaking in my booties all the while “licking my nuts and whining in the corner”, you sack of useless shit. You should spend less time replying to “bitches” and more time looking for a useful purpose in life.
Sincerely,
MPH
get bent dude, get bent. you don’t like what is being said here, t.f.b., yes go to a corner and lick your nuts, you poor pathetic excuse for whatever the fuck you are sposed to be. i’m done wasting my time on you fool. have a good nitemare.
Dr.Fever, I didn’t move in here for an imaginary pool. And I don’t give two shits about how Dal treated the building. Templeton Properties has put a whole lot of money into this place and are going to put in more. Even if they didn’t, I would still enjoy living here because I love my apartment and I love the staff that works here. Is it so hard to believe that someone might enjoy where they live?
Good enough then, you’re just sounding an awful lot like a staff member… and the pool isn’t imaginary, which proves how little you know.
I’m not a staff member. And I know there was suppose to be a pool here but there isn’t. There is however a free gym for residents only which is pretty awesome.
@ MPH; I am new to this forum and am pleased you gave Life Sucks a going over. What a whiner! He comments on every post and cries when corrected.
I wouldn’t say there isn’t a pool there… one of the elevators seemed to have a rather sizeable pool of vomit in it this morning.
