@mods need to update title to: 53 Sheppard West | 48.1m | 16s | FieldGate Urban | IBI Group

- FieldGate Urban generally kept the same built form that Grmada Holdings Inc got approved at OMB - but added 2-storey to the approved 14-storey 42.5m on Sheppard, increasing it to 16-storey at 48.1m; keeping the 4-storey townhouses on Bogert - this increases the floor area from 21,106m2 to 22,200m2 and density from 4.9FSI to 5.22FSI

- within similar built form, how did FieldGate Urban's 381 units more than double Grmada Holdings' 183 units? Whereas most of Grmada Holdings' unit size were about 650-1100sqft (not including Penthouse), FieldGate Urban split most of these condo unit size in half to 300-800sqft! Some of these 1-bedroom are sub-300sqft Studio micro condo units! 292 sqft, 293 sqft, 298 sqft here! For those who can't afford a 600sqft 1-bedroom condo,.... here you can buy half of it!!!
NOTE: 276 sqft at Urban Capital Property Group's Smart House (215 Queen St West) is the smallest in the City! The Modular Supportive Housing Units at 175 Cummer are 236-253sqft!
- the smaller units likely generate higher per square footage sale price and profit - thus, developers try to make smaller 1 bedroom units VS 2+bedroom Family Units
- FieldGate Urban seems to have partnered with Daniels Corp on this project - Daniels Corp did the initial 3 phases of 5 for Regent Park rebuild

- on-site Section 42 parkland dedication is 50 feet lot along Bogert directly west of Albert Standing Park with nothing along Sheppard (City wanted 25' on Bogert and 25' on Sheppard to reduce condo size!)
- this parkland dedication is adjacent to their non-enclosed courtyard between Bogert townhouse and Sheppard condo tower - which would act as Privately Owned Public Space (POPS); underground garage directly underneath - thus, every 40 year this POPS would have to be ripped apart to replace the waterproofing above this section of the underground garage
- NOTE: City of Toronto has a Albert Standing Park Improvement/ReBuild project - Office Park VS Neighbourhood Park,.... this project was put on hold a few months ago - while this Revision was making it's way through City Planning towards Official Submission - thus, I suspect the main reason was to clarify if the on-site Section 42 Parkland Dedication will just be the adjacent 50' along Bogert VS 25' on Bogert and 25' on Sheppard

I have a friend who lives on Beecroft and she sent me this image, i think the building will be taller than what is shown in red. if you see the tan building on the left that's 8 stories. This is now 16 plus mech penthouse. the image really shows how there is nothing west of Beecroft like it for a distance.

Keep in mind the 8-storey tan building is an Office building (Professional Engineers of Ontario) around 40m high - Office floor ceiling height are generally 50% higher than condo-floor ceiling height.
- Here, proposed 16-storey condo is 48.92m - about half the height of the 21-storey Nestle Canada office building on east-side of Beecroft.
- Another way of looking at it is most of the newest McMansion/McSkinnies being built in that neighbourhood are about 9.3m high (10m is max City allowable now), so stack about 5 of them to get the height.

The view of this part of Sheppard Ave West should change prior to this one starting construction:
11-storey 245 Sheppard West is approved at OMB now pre-Building Permit stage
9-storey 270 Sheppard West is approved at OMB now pre-Building Permit stage
4 towers up to 27-storey at 325 Bogert is OMB settlement pending May hearing
