We chose our building as it opens right into the
Columbia SkyTrain Station. The trains are a bit noisy even from the tenth floor, but that's something that's easy to get used to. I also like the fact there's a convenience store and a
Subway restaurant at the front of the station. I seldom buy anything from the
Macs nor do I often eat 12-inch double-meat chicken subs with sweet onion sauce.

Also, I like having the
Army & Navy Department Store just across the street. They have an interesting selection of deals. We just got back from picking up some dark-out curtain panels for the bedroom. The new blinds look all right but they do not make the room dark enough when closed at night.
