Other than the whole missing middle issue, I'm on board with this. The podium is about as copy-paste as they come, but the form of the top really stands out, it feels very Scandinavian.

WDG also doesn't seem to skimp out on materials so hopefully the building will actually look decent too.

Highrise intensification making inroads on yellowbelt suburbia.

Further observation about the above............the road doesn't even have a sidewalk on that side right now!

This is less than 200m from the corner of Yonge and Clark, well within the future MTSA of Clark Station on the YNSE: https://www.metrolinx.com/en/projects-and-programs/yonge-north-subway-extension

It's a chonky chunker. Wish the parking ratio was lower given the future subway station.

Yup, that fixes it! All it needed was 7 more floors and those 'cosmetic' revisions....,.
