Far from it. All that has been submitted so far is a Preliminary Report.
Chances are the windmills won't be included in the final design. The City has been fairly adamant about keeping the Festival Tower (157 metres) the tallest building within King-Spadina and at 177 metres, including the windmills, the proposal will be well over that threshold. If the developer is going to cut down the height, the first place they look won't be at residential units they can sell at 500 dollars per square foot
So 157 meters is it for any new developments in that whole area? I still say the Festival tower being an icon building should have been over 50 stories aprox 200 meters.How is it that MLG,Pinacale got aprox.55/50 stories and Ice is proposed for 65/55 stories,You would think that the city planners would have the taller buildings between King and Front street and taper them off as you would approach the lake.It makes no sense to have a tall wall of skyscrapers blocking our waterfront.This seems like the city that Jack build.
At least they are thinking green on this with the wind mills, hope we see more of this GREEN tech. incorped into building in Toronto.
Could be pretty cool if executed properly.
