Residents are absolutely opposed to this development proposal. See https://www.facebook.com/Residents.vs.346.Eglinton.Ave.W/

The tower does not fit the neighbourhood.

• Outside of Approved City Plan
• Sets a precedent for further high rise development
• Access driveway off Avenue Road is a safety hazard for driving, biking and pedestrians
• Adds significant traffic on residential streets north and south of Eglinton
• Scale, height and density of development do not match the neighbourhood
• Tower height will cast a wide shadow, limiting daylight for neighbours
• Insufficient parking on-site, resulting in spillover on neighbouring streets

Join us at the OMB hearing Opening Session, Monday March 19, at 9:30 a.m., 655 Bay Street, 16th Floor

Residents are absolutely opposed to this development proposal.

Which residents? Privileged market incumbents or those looking for a home?

Seems pretty modestly scaled for sitting on a new buried LRT line.

This was appealed following the City's neglect to make a decision. LPAT has allowed the appeal with revisions to the development:

Fairly obvious that Svetter is one of those residents mentioned up there^

And we're back.

Amir Remtulla lobbying on this one, on behalf of Morgis Corp.

It's now a larger assembly covering all the way to 378 ***

** A second assembly is referenced as 380-392 Eglinton West in the same entry, so these may be bundled or two discrete apps.

For now, I'll put both here, but show them as separate in the pics:

Easterly assembly:

Eastern Aerial:

Size: ~24000f2

Westerly Assembly:

* doesn't include the Eglinton theatre site. (thank goodness)

Western Aerial:

Size: ~ 16000ft2

@interchange42 Not sure what you want to do w/the title here, but obviously different potential addresses, different proponent and almost certainly different proposal(s). It/they could be a new thread, just stuck it here for now as a place holder.

The venerable Oliver Jewellers store will need to find a new location.

 

[interchange42]

@Northern Light we'll change the address or split the thread when it becomes clear.

Based on the Lobbyist Registry, IBI is involved here. Not clear whether that's as planner or architect.
