UT'ers who think Planning always imposes haircuts must be falling out of their chairs.......

Another one is growing up in height after going through the sausage grinder!

Retail and childcare removed seems like a downgrade.

Rendering updated to the database. The overall storey count changed from 46 storeys to 49 storeys. Total height changed from 153.50m to 162.50m. The total unit count changed from 630 units to 597 units. Finally, the total parking was changed from 67 parking to 55 parking.

What's interesting is the loss of retail and the child care centre seem to have stemmed from a complete rethinking of the ground floor here:

April 2023:

I will say that I'm extremely pleased to see two more elevators go in, even if only three of them go right to the top (6 cabs for 597 units now).

I am assuming that the Daycare was supposed to be a Section 37 and the City could not figure out a way to do that.

Capital to develop flatiron-style Toronto Park Road condos

Capital Developments will launch sales in mid-September for its distinctly designed Park Road project, a 27-storey flatiron-shaped condominium in Toronto’s exclusive Yorkville neighbourhood.

renx.ca

Capital and Metropia just received approval to move forward with a 46-storey, 630-unit condo at 170 Roehampton Ave., near Eglinton Avenue East and Mt. Pleasant Road in midtown Toronto. Sales should begin in 2024.

Still using the old unit count in that article. No surprise, Renx isn't really one for detail...

 

[artyboy123]

Demo permit issued here

Interesting, I guess that means they have their shoring permit too. As it's rental, we could see this under construction pretty quickly.
