Not sure what's being planned here but I noticed that this 2 storey building at 2738 Dundas Street West (corner with Watkinson Ave) in the Junction area has a "Manpower Demolition" sign on the front of it. There was also a dumpster to the side of it, presumably as they clear out the interiors.

An old macaroni factory fills the commercial missing middle
