CreateTO mass email - "Throughout April, we refined the building’s design and submitted a revised, final application to the City on May 3, 2024. The most significant adjustments were related to accommodating the City of Toronto’s waste pick-up requirements, which necessitated removing the proposed 3-storey building at the back of the site. The updated development still includes the 10-storey mass timber building, which has a total of 94 units. The development application is still targeting 30 per cent affordable units. In place of the 3-storey building, the proposal now includes a standalone building that will house 105 secured, long-term bike parking spaces and a newly oriented loading space to accommodate waste pickup. You can view the final submission — including drawings, reports, and studies — on the City’s Application Information Centre."

The BIA would like the existing 37 parking spots added as underground parking. Maybe they can foot the $4m to $5m construction costs?
