Bigger than 56s? When it would already be the biggest development, by far, in the area? Why?

This is massive as is for the area. I'm not exactly happy to see this much density packed in the way it is with this propsal, but thats only because of the lack of social infrastructure in this area, along with the lack of varied uses prposed on sote to make this a more self sufficient community, especially with regards to school space. The demand for schools is already putting a large strain on local educational facilities.

Tons of new housing on a current parking lot, within walking distance of three subway stations, new elementary school, many employment locations, etc. Great. Build it. This is what we need. City will get mountains of cash from DCs, taxes, CBC, etc. Everyone wins. Let's go.

While I take issue with the huge densities proposed on the other side of the DVP from this one, I wholly agree here. Build build build.

It's still just 1 spot per 4 units, but still. I don't think it's unreasonable for this to be fully transit geared.
Is there still a minimum requirement or is this just the developer deciding to build parking?

Is this your personal preference or do you see an actual value in that?

We already have mega towers outside downtown at Square One; VMC is also getting there; maybe Langstaff one day.

You dont even have to look that far out, just look at what's being proposed just to the east along Wynford.

Knowing that the bike share e bikes are limited to 25kmh just makes me want to buy my own ebike even more. I thought the bike share ones were fast, privately owned ones are limited to 32km/h!

This one has wandered off to the OLT. As I suggested it would a few posts back.
Case Management Conference is scheduled for June 16th, 2023.

In light of the OLT hearing date above..........an interesting development:
A move to historically designate the office tower, yes, this one:
From @AlbertC 's post kicking this thread off
The report heads to next week's Planning and Housing Ctte:
Of note from the report and potentially impacting the current proposal:

...all they need to do is designate that museum building just south west, across the road from this as heritage. And we'd be good as gold.
