Any chance of this project being completed by 2030?

They should put planters all along the silos and make it into one giant living/green wall. Imagine a breeze blowing through a 100ft vertical canopy with the cylindrical undulations. Would be a trip. Literally, people would take a trip to see it since it'd be so cool.

Yes. Hoping that WaterfrontTO will come out against that road and/or the city will block it. If there isn't a road along the promenade further west, why should there be one here?! Otherwise a stunning proposal.

Remember the East Bayfront had Merchant's Wharf.

Too much to hope that they link these buildings with underground paths- give us Eastern PATH

I suspect builders will be leery of building PATH extensions given how much of a graveyard it is currently, and how much uncertainty there is around future office usage (most PATH customers are office workers).

No update here (sorry); but I ran across something I thought might interest readers/staff here just the same.

As debate goes on about the future of grain elevators elsewhere, including Buffalo, NY, this proposal has caught the attention of those in that latter city.

More specifically, Buffalo Rising, which I periodically read to see what's going on with Buffalo development did a story...........which quoted........Urban Toronto's story on this development. (credited)

aA throwing their Pemberton/Social hat in the ring (the thrill of Quayside diluted by this monster... c'mon great Gulf).

 

[TossYourJacket]

Yep, that's an a-A ground floor design, that's for sure. Does someone there get off on creating terrible pedestrian experiences?

The rendering is updated in the database for the North Block. The project information has some changes. The overall storey count decreased from 42 storeys to 41 storeys. The total height changed from 130.0m to 140.0m.

With New Cherry St. about to go live any week now, is this going to start moving forward? Or is there some other reason why this seems to be sitting?

Well, for a start, they don't have their SPA approval yet.
