Unless there's a second road built to access Jane here, it's going to be an extremely bad idea to ram through a whole bunch of density on this site.

Could see Jane St being one of the possible Ontario Line West alignments

^Until the time that mythological dream happens (frankly there's a 0% chance the OL would ever touch this site or Jane St), it's crucial to explore a second access road to this site for this development.

Does anyone ever look at these plans and wonder if it's healthy and safe for so many people to be living adjacent to such a busy highway? The air is very polluted there. There are several such projects proposed, including building on Yorkdale Mall's parking lots next to the 401.
