I have confirmed that this is at 51 Coxwell and with 69 will really begin to change the street. Will look for a CA.

I feel like I should be happy as this probably counts as "missing middle", but 4 units with a parking lot doesn't seem like it's housing more people than an old house that was carved up into apartments could. Indeed, it seems like it actually has less greenery/yard.

I will add an additional render:
Correct Storey count here appears to be 4, basement windows don't make that level an above-grade storey.

Nothing wrong w/the scale here, but lots wrong with a banal design that under achieves. I'm not talking about getting all fancy here, just offering a well designed principle entrance, some strategic use of colour and ideally, not having a rear parking lot.
Just taking that inset use of green and applying it to the awnings and the slanted roof segments would help.

This is how rules that allow intensification generate blowback; when builders take advantage of them to build the ugliest things you could imagine and would never want for a neighbour. How unfortunate.

On the upside, it looks like these are four separate 3-bedroom stacked townhouses. Exactly the kind of housing we need, though it could look a little more slick
