It's admittedly a somewhat rare sojourn, but I do love the Beach(es)!

The former Leslieville Pumps was a unique point of interest for the area, but otherwise this is a nice site to see intensified now that they have vacated it. I imagine they'll probably try to go for the standard 6 storeys template along Queen.

Hmmm, no permits pulled that I can see......................

Not required necessarily for paving work......but signage typically requires a permit........Hmmmmm

 

[MOB]

Maybe removing the gas tanks and doing remediation in order to sell the site?

 

[LUVIT!]

That does look like could be a future sales pavilion?

Toronto’s rental apt. sector beckons for Core Development

Core Development Group has focused mainly on delivering Toronto high-rise condominiums to this point, but one of its upcoming projects is a partnership for a purpose-built rental apartment known as 775 Vaughan. The company’s president sees more opportunities in the

renx.ca

An approximately 60,000-square foot building with around 70 units at 929 Queen St. E. has also been proposed by Core. It’s seeking to have approvals in place in time for construction to start in the first quarter of 2024, with completion anticipated two years later.

Nice, the changing of window styles and brick colours allows you to retain the granularity of Queen to a much higher level than what we typically see.

Note that they even vary the podium heights, just a bit. My only critique here would be that I'd like to see a band across the site above the retail level for signage, as oppose to having tenants simply install their own directly over the brick.

But otherwise very good!

 

[innsertnamehere]

yup. NIMBYs are going to lose it over 9 storeys, but generally looks good. overall at 68 units it's still very modest intensification.

 

[LUVIT!]

Yes please. I like it! No balconies is surprising however it gives the structure cleaner lines. Ask NLight says above the nod to the existing smaller storefronts on Queen St E. is a pleasant surprise too!
