Indeed .. particularly for this project, I'd love to see this one get going, its one of the last parking lots on Bay (less the bus station, which has other factors involved in its eventual removal).

Me too, potentially construction could start as soon as it has full city approvals, that's if the developer hasn't reversed the idea of it being a rental bldg.

Did anything really change since the last revision? I was really hoping for a dramatic overhaul on the design front (which I have never been a fan of from the start). Never liked the form or the patterns that are trying to be created with balconies (we've been seeing way too much of this around town). This site deserves a lot more.
It's quite different from the original design, only 43 storeys now instead of 50, and 121 metres instead of 149.
Going to Council for final approval on June 10-11.

Rentals are needed, especially affordable rentals. That the developer does not guarantee that this will be a rental building concerns me.

The City Planner admitted to me in person that the 121m figure is in error. It is actually 138.6m.
Phew! Thanks for that info. That would have left very short floors at 121 metres after allowing for the 7.5 metre high ground floor. (Just did the math!) Updating dataBase file.

No problem. Bear in mind that figure is for the Zoning By-Law Amendment, which incorporates a bit of a buffer to prevent the need for another rezoning if conditions change slightly during construction (i.e. minor grading changes, etc.). Not totally sure what the planned height is, because I can't make out the detail in the elevations provided... but should be close to the height map in the rezoning application.
Always happy to make an adjustment to the dataBase file if need be!

Isn't it rental? Don't really need a render if that's the case.
