OOOOOOO!!! I am ecstatic about this news! I can't wait for this section of Dundas in Etobicoke to go high-rise - the potential of this corridor is insane. And it's right next to that dilapidated old Canadian Tire, which also has a long gestating development proposal. Honeydale Mall just a bit further west also had a re-development proposal a while back that included free space for a subway extension, but I haven't heard anything about that in ages. I think in 20-30 years we'll have a nice canyon on Dundas from Islington well into Mississauaga! The sooner the better, seeing how ugly it is currently.
This has got to include more properties than just 5415 Dundas - I just wonder which side it extends from? If the east, that would include the Canadian Tire store location, if west, it would have to take in a few retail strip mall properties.

5415 Dundas Street West (multiple towers - Dunshorn Holdings Inc)
A consortium Dunshorn Holdings Inc. comprising of the Orlando Corporation, Franko Enterprises, Fine/Schwebel, Enercorp and Royal LePage has spent the last couple of years working out the details of a proposed redevelopment being designed by Quadrangle Architects at 5415 Dundas Street W near Kipling Station.
The 10.5-acre site will be assembled from five smaller properties (currently commercial buildings, surface parking, two low-rise office buildings and two factories). The build-out will likely take about 10 years and no builder has been selected by Dunshor Holdings. The preliminary design includes 8 buildings ranging from mid-rise with retail on Dundas to taller condo towers up to 35 floors at the back of the site. A total of 1,830 residential units are planned with a GFA of 4.2 - rezoning will be required.
Below is a very prelimary massing model:

Ah yes, that old classic Bowlerama - it's got to go. I'm loving this proposal, but they really could go taller than 35 stories here. ECC needs it!

This looks fantastic. It's like Parkside Village for ECC. Without the Park.

And if that kind of density will fill Dundas in Etobicoke, then socialwoe/dentrobate/fresh start's much ridiculed idea for a Shorncliffe subway station in the future might actually have some merit after all...

A streetcar/LRT line might become feasible, especially given the width of Dundas.

If the Bloor/Danforth line is extended out here this could become the next huge condo cluster similar to NYCC.
Dundas should go highrise all the way to the 427 and beyond.

^ It really should - all the way past Hurontario. Dundas west of Kipling is such a ridiculously ugly stretch.
I can't wait to see this get built, but it probably won't open for sales for another year.
