Remember that fancy new 65-storey Trump International Hotel and Tower? It’s already broken. Glass fell from the building onto the street on Saturday, prompting police to close the intersection at Bay and Adelaide—and residents to wonder, we’d imagine, why they paid $6 million to live in a tower that’s falling apart.

Get used to it folks. Because this will become the norm. Never mind the hoity-toity ones like Trump but even moreso with the run-in-the-mill basic ones that cut corners in quality to woo buyers. 10-15 years from now, when those buyer’s condo fees are through the roof and they can’t sell, at least they’ll know why.
How much of a sucker do you have to be to buy anything with the Tacky (Trump) brand?
Thank god nobody was having sex by the window with their mistress because that would be a tough call for the concierge on duty to explain to the wife.
I am always wondering why no one talks about the builder. The ‘brand’ has really nothing to do with it. The cheap builders higher the cheapest sub-trades: faulty products.
I was talking to a Chicago friend if they have falling glass happening there. She said she only knows of one, where a woman’shead was severed. Is this thing only happening here in Toronto??
