11/16 - deVine Wines is very excited to host a portfolio tasting and fundraiser on Thursday, December 10, 2009 . Our store is partnering with Natasha Susylinski of Summit Fine Wines to showcase her portfolio and raise funds for the improvement of our beloved downtown street.
The portfolio tasting will take place between 4:00 PM and 8:00 PM . Tickets are $20.00 each and can be purchased on-line or at the door. Over twenty wines and a selection of single malt scotch whiskey will be available for sampling. Light snacks will also be available.
Four wine tasting stations will be set up to help guide you through Natasha’s portfolio. You can begin at the “No Skins” white wine station, meander to the “With Skins” medium-bodied and full-bodied red wine stations, and finally over to the “Dessert” port wine station. For a complete listing of wines available for sampling that evening, please visit the “Events and Tastings” link on our homepage.
Last but not least, deVine Wines will be pleased to pour you a few drams at the single malt scotch whiskey station.
All proceeds from the event will be turned over to the newly formed 104-Street Steering Committee. The committee is made up of 104-Street business owners, residents, representatives from the City of Edmonton , the Downtown Farmer’s Market, and the University of Alberta at Enterprise Square , the Downtown Business Association and bothWard 4 City Councilors.
The committee’s goal is to promote the cleanliness, safety, security and marketability of 104-Street.
A silent auction will also be held in advance of the portfolio tasting to raise funds for street and area improvement. Items have been donated by our good neighbors on 104-Street. Please visit our auction page to track your bids and view newly added items.
Let’s have fun making 104-Street a better place to live, work, play and learn downtown.

11/07 - Please remember that repairs to in-suite common property is the responsibility of our condo corporation. Most of these problems have related to our fan-coil units. If our property manager determines that a problem is related to in-suite common property, she will send out a contractor to resolve it. If the problem was not caused by the negligence of the resident, our condo corporation will pay for the work done.

11/07 - Have you even wondered what other lofts in our building look like? If you have, then participating in our Christmas Loft Crawl will be the perfect gift to yourself. Meet your neighbors, enjoy some fine wine and Christmas Cheer!
The plan is to have people voluntarily sign up to host a part of the party, showcasing a favorite wine and possibly an appetizer to go with it.
We’ll start in the lobby, where we’ll gather to decorate our Lobby Christmas Tree and indulge in some freshly baked cookies.
From there, with our own wine glasses in hand, we’ll weave our way through the floors of Phillips Lofts. Those participating will host everyone in their suite for 20 minutes or so and then it’s off to the next one… and so the evening will unfold.
Last Year’s crawl was a huge success! We hope to see you all there! Support our local independents! DeVine Wine & Spirits on the corner of 104 th and Jasper is the perfect place to purchase your wine.
Please R.S.V.P. via email no later than Friday, November 20th.

01/20 - Recently, Phillips Lofts has begun to experience some difficulty with sewer backups in suites and clogged drainage pipes. In the interest of mitigating any future problems, we ask that all residents of the building follow these general guidelines:
-“Feminine hygene products” should not be flushed down toilets, but disposed of with your household waste.
-Under no circumstances should grease ever be poured down a kitchen sink drain. Grease should be collected in a jar or other container and disposed of with your regular household waste.
-The waste disposal units installed in the kitchen sinks should be used sparingly. Solid food waste should still be scraped in to your household garbage. Sink disposal units are not to be used as a replacement for this. Over time the pulped waste created by these units will also begin to clog the building’s drainage pipes.
-Only bathroom tissue (toilet paper) should be used and flushed down toilets, as this is designed to largely disintegrate when it gets wet. Paper towels and other products on the other hand will not fall apart, and may result in blockages in our building’s sanitary piping system.
-Should you flush your toilet and it does not immediately begin to drain, do not continue flushing it. If it is running continuously, immediately either remove the tank lid and adjust the ballcock or flapper, or shut off the water supply on the lefthand underside of the tank.

01/13 - The Annual General Meeting (AGM) has been scheduled for Wednesday, February 4th at 19:00 at Grant MacEwan Community College (7-265 - (107 Street Building - 2nd Floor)).

01/04 - The 2007/08 (July 31st) audited financial statements are ready. As well, for the first time, a treasurer report and president's report have been prepared for the fiscal year passed.
