The public consultation will be at Ontario Heritage Centre on Adelaide St east (at Yonge) on 20th September @ 6-8pm.

Thanks for the heads-up. I'm going to try and make it.

That's the same night as the 8 Elm consultation which starts at 8pm. Marathon planning night!

Can you add any colour as to why a re-submission wasn't made and Cityzen instead chose to appeal to the board?

 

[modernizt]

I have not personally worked on this project so I don't have details of the OMB appeal unfortunately.

I don't have any personal involvement with this project so I don't have details of the OMB appeal.

So, your February post about a revised application being imminent was just a guess?

No, it was what I was told by the planning department when I inquired. If you are really interested in the details, contact the planner on the file and I'm sure they can help you out.

Easy.

Assess / use the information as it comes. There's no need to accuse or harangue (only you look like the ignorant one).

New documentation is posted on the Dev App site. Lots could still change but the developed podium design language at the north adjacent to the heritage art-deco building is the most obvious part of the design changes. The building also addresses the courtyard of the co-op housing building next door differently in the revised design.

Love it. aA coming with heat lately.

Not so much if you live in the co-op next door on Lombard or if you like a mid-height neighbourhood.

Meh. I live 2 blocks north and walk right by this every day to get to the streetcar. Spire is across the street and this is 2 blocks from the financial district. I agree that as currently proposed it's a little.. aggressive, but height here isn't immediately bad.
