1455 Celebration Drive - Pickering, Ontario

This building has become a serious health and safety concern for residents. Units are regularly filled with secondhand cigarette smoke and marijuana fumes, creating an unlivable environment and putting tenants’ health at risk.

Management has been made aware of these issues repeatedly, yet their response has been limited to mass emails. No meaningful investigation, enforcement, or remediation has taken place. This is unacceptable and violates residents’ right to a safe and habitable home.

The grassy areas surrounding the condo are poorly maintained, with dog waste constantly left by dirty, lazy dog owners, posing sanitation and safety hazards. Garbage and cigarette butts are always left around the property, creating an unsightly, unhealthy environment for residents. Construction noise begins at 6:00 AM, making restful sleep impossible. Despite cameras on every floor, residents are still required to retrieve every package and food delivery from the lobby, creating additional burdens.

This building consistently fails to provide a safe, clean, and livable environment. For prospective tenants: if you value your health, peace, and basic comfort, look for housing elsewhere.

Construction is absolutely terrible.. even on the weekends. So loud and restricted access everywhere.
Why are you jackhammering at 8am on a Saturday? (October 4 2025)

I couldn't post it on 1435 Celebration Drive, so posting here. If I could rate zero stars for chestnut builers, I would. Bought the condo at an over priced rate to step into a cheap building. We are so unhappy and complained to management several times but they do not care or respond to calls or emails.
1)The first week after we moved in, one of the bedrooms' door hinges came apart. We had to wait 3 weeks fot them to fix it. Doors and Frames are made of cardboard. If ever there is a fire, this place turns into ashes in minutes.
2) Floors are uneven and when we complained workers said that they are called floating floors and that the wood adjusts itself.
3) There is no hot water for over a month, luke warm water in the morning and nothing for the rest of the day, just cold water in the showers and sinks
4) No parking spots available even or the owners of condo, we are willing to pay the rent but the management would not let us contact the owners.
5) Condo control portal is useless, we get notifications when the management posts something but no notifications are sent when owners or tenants post any ads.
6) Unfinished work since the occupancy is still pending, we keep getting emails that workers need approval to access the apartment but nobody ever shows up
7)Our bathroom shower has been leaking, so there is mold on the ceiling. There is no caulking on the tiles so the wall fell apart. It has been ripped a week ago and left. Many follow up emails were sent but no response from management.
8) People living here have no respect for others, they leave garbage every where in the parking lots, elevators and corridors.
9) Spring is almost gone and windows haven't been cleaned yet
10) Other pools have been open over a month and ours is not open yet. I hope we get to enjoy the pool this summer.

The building is new but it feels like everything is falling apart. I hope they fix all the issues so people can live in peace.

Just moved in and I'm already annoyed by the following:

1) There is literally no hot water. The water gets Luke warm in the morning and nothing for the rest of the day - just cold water. I've contacted management who told me to contact customer care. Someone was sent, but I was told to run the tap for minutes until the hot water comes. Why should I need to do that and pay extra for water bill....I was told because this is a new unit, it will take some time for the hot water to work properly. This is bullshit.

2) This is a smoke free building, but yet people still smoke on their balconies. and in their units. This smell seeps into the hallway and just circulates to the other units.

3) Security is difficult to understand and a simple convo can take minutes to work through.

5) The unit was not set up (no hot water, dish washer and washing machine waters were shut off). I had to call and arrange things that should have already been sorted.

6) Construction noise at all sorts of hours.

Worst condo out there. Management is the absolute worst. Always issues with the elevator, the parking garage first floor elevator area is Philthy. There’s holes in the wall everywhere, paint not finished and this is a new condo. Management is busy giving parking tickets instead of taking care of the condo. We had an 8 hour “scheduled power outage” is that even legal? Universal condos is terrible.

I love my actual condo and my landlord is amazing. However I have experienced the same exact thing as the review below with workers entering the home when I’m in bed and I told him to get out but he didn’t. I should have just called the cops at that point. The condo manager didn’t do anything. (My landlord was super upset about it).
Parking garage is so bad
My storage unit was robbed as well. What a crazy building this is.

If you are looking to rent here, please think 10 times.

- the management records and monitors all your activities in common areas and the property manager sends nasty emails to you copying your landlords for the pettiest issues.

- Construction sound all day long from morning 6 am to 6 pm

- Warm water in the name of hot water

- DUST everywhere due to nearby construction, probably still be 2-3 years until this is complete( 2 more apartments coming up) ,so forget about using the balcony

- visitor parking is always occupied by residents and the building does not issue any tickets, leaving no parking for actual visitors.

And the list goes on!

It’s a nice unit, and new condo buildings are under construction. Its the best time to buy as an investment
