I agree with adding some clarity. Any such action will invariably involve a somewhat arbitrary line, but I like percentages, be it height, unit count, floor plate or GFA. We can probably all agree that a change less than 10% is minor. The question then is when does it become major...

Fresh lobbying from Bousfields on this one, Altree still shows as the client. No sign of new docs in the SPA, I suspect a total resubmission is coming.

This reminds me, its a good time to most a more accurately scaled map, because most people really only have the mercator projection as their point of reference. Above from: https://www.newscientist.com/article/2177132-new-world-map-is-a-more-accurate-earth-and-shows-africas-full-size/

Are you seriously arguing your understanding of military risks and capabilities is greater than a serving member of the CAF, a well-educated one at that, who has also been posted in the U.S. in the past? We all make mistakes, but if you're going to argue he's off base, you need to bring...

AAA properties, when space becomes available, are going for between $85-$100/ft2. At those numbers, new builds could make sense.

Phase 2 is being advanced with TCHC as the lead builder. The thread for that is here: https://urbantoronto.ca/forum/threads/toronto-lawrence-heights-phase-2-93-4m-28s-tchc-superk%C3%BCl.42763/

Your hearing is good. Since I opposed it......no. ( for clarity, I was one of many) I was ok w/the height, if they had followed the rules, they did not. It wasn't minor. The ask may be; the 'get' is a different matter.
