They need to adjust floor plans to market demand. I was there for initial sales, and as boomer downsizing, I was not alone in my disappointment over the lack of a 2 bedroom 1,100 sq foot unit. They seem to feel that if square footage is over 900, you need to throw in a den with the bedrooms.

For my wife and I, we want that den space to be utilized in our entertaining space. Two bedrooms is sufficient for most boomers. Friends of ours who were also there, did buy a 2 bed/den unit but were already discussing with sales team that they needed to be able to blow out the den wall to create larger living space...if that can't be done, they are pulling out.

We heard this as a common theme that evening. So either the local real estate team is not communicating our market very well, or the developers are sticking to the formula that works in Toronto. Either way, would like to see some adaptation in future developments.
