Toronto 23 Toronto Street | 299.04m | 91s | Goband Investment | SvN

It’s crazy to think that 100 years ago building a skyscraper was meant to be an art form and a way to show off wealth. Now it’s just a competition to see who can cram the most condos into a building with the worst-looking facade. The height is already bad for where it’s located does it really have to look ugly too? There’s nothing tall around to mask it, so once it’s built, it’s there forever. 😭
 
200 metre mark - 18 towers between 196 and 200 metres:


150 metre mark - 58 towers between 146 and 150 metres: Yes, that's 58 buildings in that little 4 metre gap... 13 built, 5 under construction, and 40 proposals.

...er, how difficult is it to extend crown bit of this tower to just over 96 cm?

This does refer to the build as "300m", for those keeping score at home.

Correct. The draft zoning by-law also lists 300m:

This doesn't mean 300m will be built though.

I care. It's another supertall that can be added to Toronto's growing list of supertalls, real or imagined... up to 10 now, if you include the CN Tower.

300m may be the zoning by-law maximum, but it is not the height of the proposed building. As per the March 2026 elevation drawings and the elevation drawings in the April recommendation report; there are no protruding architectural elements above the flat roofline which is 299.04m above ground level.

(Also note that Recommendation Reports use rounded numbers for all metre and square metre stats, which you can see on the stats summary page)

These drawings arent secured with the approval, only the zoning By-law is. So technically the height is 300m until this becomes a real project through SPA - where the height can become anything 300m or less. Recommendation Reports use the zoned height for this reason.
