Really interesting concept. Cool design. I wonder how they'll treat the rental units and existing tenants as part of this. With 70 new units proposed and a land purchase of $21m in 2018, I cannot fathom how this will turn a profit - either as a condo or rental product.

I was wondering the same thing - ie where the synergies are of the combined sites... I think with 267 you may be able to get 2 towers, but it is very tight. The sites combined are about 76m x 37m. If you can get tower floor plate of 22m x 34m (roughly 750m2), with 20m separation distance...

Some more info from Elysium on LinkedIn and their website - https://www.linkedin.com/posts/elysium-investments-inc_announcing-our-latest-project-17-29-glenavy-activity-7208537773140570113-utiM?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop - https://elysiuminvestments.ca/projects/bayview-eglinton...

Looks like this site has been relisted at $5.998m as of May 2024. Did the previous listing include both 562 and 558 Kingston? I'm not sure what explains the jump from $3.5m to $6m... Even at $3.5m, this is not exactly a profitable endeavor...

Wow - are they actually completing the streetscape work along Charles and Isabella, including the interior courtyard? I genuinely cannot believe it after all these years lol

Not sure if there is an existing thread for these properties, but looks like they were purchased by LDI Holdings not too long ago. I don't know what the purchase price was, but the site was last acquired by Triovest, as I understand, back in 2016 for $14.45m

I think this has to do more with accommodating a lay-by (or multiple) for Harbour 60 valet rather than redevelopment of the site. There a ton of permits filed for 60 Harbour and issued between 2022 and 2024 for renos/alterations to accommodate the restaurant I haven't seen any new apps or...

My mistake, you are correct! Thank you for clarifying The VIP launch was in Feb 2024, followed by public launch in March. Looks like they sold 3 units so far - all 3B + Dens

The settlement offer is for a 40 storey tower as per the NRU. Tower setbacks of 20 and 10m to the south and east

Looks like 19 Alexandra was purchased for $5.15m end of May (the first house behind the former funeral home). I assume this may form part of a broader assembly. Perhaps they are thinking a tower here and need the house for the 20m setback to neighbourhoods...

I am hearing this one is launching soon or has just launched with prices starting in the $4m range. Only 28 suites. Trying to attract any empty nesters I guess and people who don't want to deal with the maintenance of a ground related

Very cool ethnic grocer with foods predominantly from across Asia. It's a shame they covered up all their glazing so you can't see inside. I suppose it has to do with the depth of the retail unit here. It don't think it's more than 7/8m deep You're getting similar conditions to the Pusateris on...

Reminds me of that Ministry of Defense building (generalstab) in Belgrade that was bombed by NATO in the 90s - which stood untouched as a monument for a decade And what the complex looked like before the bombing.

Yes and no on 15 Charles. It maintains the design/look of angular plane... but busts right through it! The proposal at 54 stories did sit beneath the angular plane, but at 66 it is beyond

Good to see LDA drawings. Wow 2.78m avg floor height. Rental product here?

As someone who's studied cartography, this map has got to be one of the worst maps I've ever seen

The heritage restoration is well done. Unfortunate that none of those will be retail, but towns instead.

This is a topic that's long fascinated me. I agree w/ NL that there are some ppl in the City who care, but it comes down to priority and what takes precedence. Which leads me to PE's excellent point about too much focus from city staff on stepbacks, heights, shadows, and not enough on ground...

Yup - CBC and S37 were one of the ways of securing this. The city may also be able to protect it via non-residential replacement policies as written in TOcore/Midtown, though the intent of those policies was to apply strictly to office and institutional uses. But because it's written as...

Same here. Taking their time on this is seeming to work in their favour
