The Camera Never Lies... Unless It's a Lie of Omission!

Think the security camera’s in the building are there for your protection? Think again!

When a building resident recently requested a copy of security footage from an incident that happened in a common area, the Corporation dealt with the issue by retaining a lawyer to respond to say that the Corporation will not provide copies of video of the common elements for privacy reasons.

They went on to assert that the corporation is of the view that it is under no obligation to provide any such description.

How safe do you feel now?

Class A Location, Class C Building

We have spent over $10k seeking information from this board, only the lawyers are winning!

Only solution if you want change and a better environment is to vote out the board!

Lockbox Central

An absurd number of realtor lockboxes completely covers the gate to our building.

Apparently we now have a realtor on the board, perhaps they belong to his friends.

Storage Sauna

We once had a sauna however it is now merely a messy junk storage area for which owners pay.

Sleeping In Doorway

How secure is our building? Having found people sleeping in our foyer, it would be wrong to assume that safety is a priority. Does anyone ever check the cameras? Do the cameras even work?

Ceiling Leaks... Still

There have been roof leaks in the building for at least ten years. Will the reserves cover the upcoming, potentially expensive roof replacement? Regardless, water stained tiles in hallways have remained ignored! 

2021 Update – It’s leaking AGAIN!

2026 Update – Still leaking!

Stained Glass Windows

Normally stained glass windows are a desirable architectural feature but that is very different from glass windows that are stained.

It took until July before these windows were cleaned.

Stained Carpeting

Carpeting at the entrance to the property is stained and has been for some time. It’s never been cleaned.

Great first impression for visitors!

More Carpet Woes

Parking entrance carpeting is missing a piece, keeping up the “shabby” vibe!

Filthy Parking Floors

The dustbowl known as our parking garage had not been cleaned prior to June, leaving filthy flooring and clearly visible tire tracks throughout.

Does Security Matter To You?

Leaving security gates ajar and allowing security doors to be propped open does not suggest everyone feels the same way.

No Smoking Sign

How long must this worn out sign remain before it is replaced? So far, it has been this way for at least 10 years. Small details make a big difference.

Latest Updates:

– Massive increase in Contribution per unit to Project Funding looming
– Roof is leaking again this year
– New elevators ALSO entrap riders (just like the old ones!)
– Fee increase of 7%… what exactly are we getting for this increase?
– New board member, replacing a veteran of 15 years, maybe it’s time for change

221 Robinson

A Great Place to Live… Potentially!

Despite our concerns as to the maintenance and management of 221 Robinson, we firmly believe it is a great place to live with spectacular views and easy access to the best Oakville has to offer. But it goes without saying that there are problems. 

Wonder why equivalent properties in the area sell much higher than units in 221 Robinson? We have an aging building in a poor state of repair with little planning and forethought for the future. We deserve better, the building deserves better, Oakville deserves better.

We are concerned residents of 221 Robinson Street in Oakville, Ontario and we are exhausted trying to hold management accountable for the poor standard of maintenance of our building. The value of our property and the standard of living is disappointing and not keeping pace with similar nearby properties in the area.

Despite units recently selling for over $1m, does the state of this building really reflect that price tag? What would these units be worth if the building was managed appropriately?

You spend lots of time here, shouldn’t you want to love where you live?
