I wouldn't worry about yellow cladding right now, who knows how long before these conceptual designs become a reality
The "shadowed building" is future development, which is why it is shadowed as it is only intended to show some idea of what will be going there. That is the southeastern block of the subdivision, in which the first picture above shows the entire Parkside Village massing. If you read the staff report that Lourez linked to, you would read that it is "Block 7: Southeastern block corner of the subdivision and contemplated to have two towers (maximum heights of 37 storeys and 45 storeys) and podium heights not to exceed 7 storeys with potential grade related retail and commercial uses along the Confederation Parkway and Burnhamthorpe Road West frontages" (page 10).
I'm aware it's future development. What I want to know is WHAT it is. It looks massive.
Its nothing. Its just to show that there will be development there in the future.
What I'd like to know is what that huge building is on the left hand side of the last image. The shadowed building that does not exist.
That area is currently a huge empty field as well. *hmmm*
Usually when they draw in buildings like that, it's a representation of what will be there, or what is there already. They get these ideas from somewhere to show the massing of the buildings.
I just think that someone must have an idea of what is going in there eventually, and how big it's going to be.
Usually when they draw in a building that doesn't exist, they make it much smaller looking compared to the buildings the render is advertised for.
Tuscani01 knows what he is talking about.
Hazel's scarcely a "liberal mayor", except in strategically un-endorsing the Conservatives whenever she sees fit...
