Multiplexes

[A Torontonian Now]

1548 Queen West. Is it time to divide this thread? I would suggest ‘main street’ mixed-use multiple and those that are purely residential.

Or not. Lol

I would leave this multiplex thread for up to 4 units + garden / laneway suite (i.e. the new as of right everywhere residential), and create a new thread for "large multiplex" being 5 - 12 units, or mixed-use (like 3 apartments over retail). We'll see these types probably mostly on main streets, but to me better to divide by built form than location. But either could work fine.

Great idea. BTW does anyone know the architect for the multiplex above? Looked on CofA and nothing. I find it interesting.

I’m actually a fan of leaving everything in this thread until the volume starts to overwhelm.

Thanks for all your updates @rdaner !

Ossington north of College is turning into Multiplexburg! Taken 5 May.

This almost complete multiplex conversion is on College and has a yard in front that could support a patio! I wonder if any of the units facing the front a live/work?

For 1548 Queen St W ? I believe it's romanov romanov Architects, But don't think they do many such developments.
