The math must be correct but I am definitely surprised. They don't seem that close on foot.
They use math??? Blasphemer!!
Hard to believe that there would be shadowing issue with 220 meters from this College + Yonge location to Wellesley + Yonge....that's a crock![]()
Many, many, many shadow studies were done of equally many iterations of the project. The only 'crock' here is your assumption that this doesn't matter.
You know, you could always just look at the submitted study (http://app.toronto.ca/DevelopmentAp...3913632&isCofASearch=false&isTlabSearch=false) but yeah, who'd want to do that? Fake news and all.
God, you're exhausting sometimes.
When the shadow studies are done, they also take into account all other buildings in the area. The shadow thrown by the proposal in question shows up in a different colour, making it easy to determine what incremental shadowing is being added by it.Of course it matters, it's never nice to shadow downtown Toronto parks and parkettes right?, but for gods sake this park is far from being completed and will have a lot more shadowing issues from nearby under construction and existing buildings,
what next... let's plan a park to avoid any future height confrontations![]()
It's also not infrequently claimed on this forum that this is a uniquely Toronto consideration; shockingly, that is both inaccurate and provincial.
