What is happening with the Porsche dealership in their third temporary location in the last, seems like, 10 years? Picture from Dec 5, 2021.
Front and Berkeley, Front and Parliament, and now 259 Lake Shore E.
How many more days for them?
Where are they going next? The docks?

That's a Volvo dealership

The Audi (I think) dealership is at the north of that site, they are now doing something with the south of the site right behind Humane Society - it certainly may be an enlargement of the Volvo /Audi but might also be a new home for Porsche. The building outlined in yellow was demolished a few weeks ago.

I am curious why the demolition has already started. Are they planning to start building here soon? I think the plan was to start in 2026?

The buildings were all vacant and thus not bringing in any revenue and seemed to be having break-ins (it's getting colder outside). I suspect they preferred to clear the site and either leave it empty or use it for temporary surface parking with really no ongoing costs.

The ZBA resubmissions have occurred for the various proposals.

I will include this below as it is applicable to the entire plan:

The notable changes are the increases in height for buildings 1A and 1B and the increase in retail GFA of ~1000m2 or about 10,000ft2

@Paclo

I'm off to the individual threads to post.
 
The changes specific to Blocks 3, 4 and 5 will be slotted here per @Paclo pending some reorganization of Quayside threads.

Architecture is still fuzzy for these ones, but there is an overall render of Quayside in w/downtown that's nice, we'll start there:
