This has got to be one of the highest proposed parking-unit ratios we've seen in the last while. Don't doubt they will sell, Steeles and Dufferin isn't exactly some urbanist paradise lol. Might start to change if those RapidTO bus lanes on Steele ever make it out the staff report
 

Extremely disappointed that Council voted to reject this project, going AGAINST the approval for recommendation report by planning staff.

Some very strange politicking going on in the background between Council, the Premier and this Sanofi site. Reporters should investigate what is going on here, because it is absurd that we're refusing perfectly good development in the middle of a housing crisis. The report that @Kenojuak linked above demonstrated there is no security threat to the Sanofi site with the development which should have put an end to all those concerns by council.

Council just voted to reject the neighbouring proposal by Tenblock against staff recommendation due to Councilor Pasternak's grandstanding for the Sanofi site.

Those same concerns would exist for this recent resubmission for the First Capital site, placing even more housing in jeopardy of refusal and lengthy appeals. Surely whatever imaginary concerns Pasternak and Sanafi have at 1875 Steeles site applies even stronger for the First Capital site.
