Fieldgate really taking shots at these outdated North York Secondary Plans and their perceived FSI caps. First along Yonge, now blowing this one up also. Keep the height at the intersection and along the 401. The midrise forms along here are working. I hope this rush to 40 storeys everywhere...

Isn't this strip of Berkeley Mixed Use 4 in TOcore? Good luck at OLT on this one, on a document the Province marked up and approved.

Glad to see this team licking their wounds, especially after their bait and switch on the architecture and telling the City they would go down in flames at LPAT. I don't mind this update, but the space between the buildings will be hostile and gloomy.

I would love as an early Christmas present if @Koops65 were to model up all the high density proposals in the Keele-St. Clair pocket. The bingo hall, Limen, Diamondcorp, the TOD site, this site and so on. It is another Mimico-Judson situation but triple the density.

I forgot to mention that half of the Canadian Tire "lands" is owned by an individual (east half, including most of the physical store) and leased to Canadian Tire, while the Canadian Tire Corporation owns most of the parking lot on the west side. This is a major wrinkle to a potential...

Will be an interesting juxtaposition to have this slim toothpick next to the Great Gulf density blob (Home) coming down the Eastern/Richmond ramp. Brad Lamb follows no guideline! I'm wondering what he has in store for Stratenger's on Queen East. Certainly won't be a six storey mid-rise based on...

They also own the 21 and 25 Davenport parcels as of 2019 and all the way to 22 Scollard for large sums, so this will have frontage on both streets and I imagine will be a tower.

That sounds like a sham to avoid rental replacement. The City will do their due diligence but I respect the hustle of the listing claiming they're all "lived in by the owner".

I was always hoping for a creative mixed-use replacement like this in (*checks notes) Calgary, but I don't think CT or their REIT has the patience or interest in winning Urban Design awards. Link: https://fcr.ca/properties/alberta/calgary/mount-royal/mount-royal-west/

Is Ghods actually going to build and sell here? Who would issue construction financing to them considering they already went down once?

This site has been around for a while and is a doozy. It has major noise attenuation requirements on any west facade due to the Willowbrook Railyard. Any residential mid or highrise will likely feature no balconies, a solid wall or even a single-loaded corridor facing west. It also has split...

The ground floor simply isn't good enough. Needs articulation and some pushing and pulling. It's definitely and improvement and a welcomed addition considering the previous ideas here.

Is this a white flag for Canderel related to heritage? No mention of the development in this video:

I guess it's important to note it's also been appealed for lack of decision. No surprise there. The City and proponent are likely far apart in terms of what is considered contextual here.

New renderings and built form adjustments from the Site Plan: http://app.toronto.ca/AIC/index.do?folderRsn=%2BWpO0cxYE15%2F0UwoUM%2BdRA%3D%3D. Info on changes:

Connecting this stretch to the Kipling/Etobicoke Downtown Hub over the tracks will require some creativity. Right now it is a nasty, terrible walk. I'm happy with the density proposed here. Overall this is on the right track even though I suspect it may be a rezoning play by the car dealer...

Why does the King Street frontage in the rendering look so good, yet so simple? I can't quite figure it out.

This is Camrost-Felcorp doing a second phase of their project to the south, confirmed on RealNet. It appears there are some stubborn holdouts between the two sites which hopefully will come onboard now that the application is real. Time will tell.

There have been attempts to assemble this block of wartime houses for years. On Geowarehouse 351-365 Royal York was purchased by a numbered company in February 2021. I looked up the company at the time and it wasnt a builder/ground up developer. Likely a zone and flip. Maybe they can have the...

The site you've highlighted was always meant to be the new station location (see below). Maybe the owners are trying to do a TOD initiative like what is happening on the Ontario Line. Good find!
