To be located in the Gore Lot at Fort York Blvd and Lake Shore Blvd


Lots of fancy renderings in here - https://tempo.scoreplay.io/link?id=272131&token=8138e15d-b892-40d7-af38-52dd9cbb7210

LOL we both posted a thread for this pretty much at the same time. Thanks mods for combining it.
 
Good to see in the renders that the TORONTO TEMPO's new "Recreation Facility" plan does not appear to move or impede anything at the Fred Victor 'Blue Tent' homeless shelter site next-door...

TEMPO site is a big surface parking-lot now that is mostly use for staging of trailers and transports during Convention load-in / load-out processes at the larger buildings on the CNE grounds.

I am happy to see another empty/parking lot filled in the near waterfront area of the city. I have always been interested in what several lots in the waterfront area or south of the Gardiner would look like in the future. I highlighted this site in Red. I am curious about the sites I highlighted in Blue and if perhaps one day they too may or could be developed into something other than what they are now. I remember once seeing that triangle parcel wedged between the tracks and expressway planned as a park with a playground as part of the under the Gardiner plan, not sure if that still is the plan or not. ideally i would like to see the armouries building and adjacent parking areas/lots redeveloped into more condos with the building incorporated into the base, if possible, and the armouries moved to the area next to the HMCS York building down the street. i think it would fill in the last space between the condos in the Fort York area and connect with the CNE Grounds while completing the fill in of the area south of the Gardiner and Fort York.
 
This is a beautiful building and I like how the design references the Princes' Gate. I've seen some people saying this was a missed opportunity for more density, but not every development needs a tower plonked on top. Single story developments like this are the exception, not the norm.
