"There should actually be a real entrance to Bloor-Yonge subway, something architectually inspiring. (Notice that it is hard to find an entrace to the subway at the busiest stop in the system?)"
--most definitely, and at the corner have some form of indication that the City's two busiest subways lines intersect here, at the busiest station

^ you have to remember who is develping this building. Bazis doesn't care, they just want to put up a condo. The last palns by Kolter didn't include a subway entrance, niether will this version.
However Bazis is planning to make this a condo/hotel.

Change from mixed use residential to one with a significant commerical component means rezoning - it would do him well to start caring about what the city wanted.

^ Sometimes what the city wants is not economically feasible.
I don't think it is worth commenting on what the city wants or what Bazis is proposing when no details of the project have been made public except for the purchase of the lands. For all we know the developer may propose a mixed use development including office space and a subway entrance (and I hope better connections underground to the mini PATH system at Yonge and Bloor... having lived there for many years it is a great asset on cold days like today).

... featuring a nearly 80 storey tower with a four storey double-height podium at the base making it Toronto's tallest residential/commercial building. ..."

Also on that same site there is a project called "Toronto's Landmark". 3 towers, flairing out at the top. Where is this project located exactly?
