Not sure if there is a thread for this..

2161 Lake Shore Blvd.


Proposed amendments to the Official Plan and Etobicoke Zoning Code to permit a two-phase development consisting of: a 49 storey residential tower (Phase 1), a 4-storey commercial building (Phase 1) and a 14-storey residential building with grade-related commercial space (Phase II). Upon completion, the overall project would include a total of 660 residential units, 2 523 m2 of commercial space, 778 m2 of retail space and over 3 000 m2 of indoor and outdoor amenity space.
 
I looks like they are copying Conservatory (at Infinity) and proposing a carbon copy of the Lago complex, which is northeast of Ocean Club, this time on the southwest side of it.

That's certainly a way to save some cash at the expense of originality.

But unlike Infinity, this site isn't even adjacent to its twin. That seems a little odd.

Perhaps they'll just be copying the massing and not the design.
 
Interchange- Can you do an update on the map you created? Thanks!
 
Thanks mister. Your map was printed and posted in some construction offices ;) I hope they appreciate your work.
 
Confirmed that this is Monarch with Graziani + Corazza Architects, and with gh3 doing landscape design.

This is before the Design Review Panel right now, for its first appearance. While the massing is quite similar to Lago and Riva del Lago, the architecture is not a command-copy command-paste of Lago. It's still very early stages mind you, and nothing is finalized, so no point in putting up very fuzzy cellphone photos.

In any case, the panel is generally happy with the program as presented at the moment, and just voted unanimously for refinement.
