None of the properties are on the heritage registry. 79 and 81 Shuter look pretty old though.

From Toronto Archives (1975)

hm, so we know it's older than 1975, but I wonder how much older. 1890s? And I like the hippie in the window playing the bongos, or whatever he's up to staring at the camera.

Structures are missing from the 1858 map: http://oldtorontomaps.blogspot.ca/2013/01/1858-boulton-map-of-toronto.html

But buildings (for sure 79 Shuter) are on the 1880 map: http://goadstoronto.blogspot.ca/2012/10/1880-insurance-plan-of-city-of-toronto.html

79 is a nice building and would probably fit into the development easily. The other two don't look very remarkable but that's just my opinion.

They could demolish 81 Shuter for a contemporary entrance, and keep 79 and 83 as "bookends" integrated into the podium.

I actually like 81. It's different and should have an interesting story. 79 is great. 83 looks to be the disposable one.

Shuter is getting a lot of burn. I like it.

Shuter is getting a lot of burn. I like it.

yes, Shuter, Sherbourne and Dundas East are easily the most depressing streets downtown.

 

[A Torontonian Now]

I like all three and I particularly like that it's a complete block (albeit a short one) with buildings from the same period. That's something worth preserving. Fixed up, I think these three would be quite the stunners.

If a tower built over the existing buildings requires a modern entrance, it looks like there is space for that off Mutual Street.

Rental or condominium?

 

[Adjei]

Is there anything planned for the two parking lots at Shuter and Church?

Jeez another tower that looks like everything else... There is no there, there: Toronto

 

[Midtown Urbanist]

Well at least with it bein on Shuter it will feel like and be an infill project.
