3 years and going for rezoning......explains why they went from 56 to 25 storeys.

The lack of setbacks really stands out in that photo.....especially with 560 Front Street.

It's good to see this many 2/2+ bedrooms.

There looks to be only 1 underground parking level because of the high groundwater elevation. You would think it makes sense to bathtub and propose further underground parking instead of all the surface parking. The surface parking could be replaced with green space or further development.

Sorry, let me clarify my statement - I come from an urban lifestyle mindset and this area lacks attractive retail and commercial space in close proximity. Majority of the retail that you have mentioned needs serious rejuvenation.

Interesting....it's too bad they pushed for the removal of the brick frontage. I think it sits nicely with the neighbouring facade. Sounds like a typical Planner approach by comparing recently approved/completed developments, but it's a fair stance. Will their be another consultation?

What did the City say about the design? Any concern with the height?

Attractive proposal but this site is underachieving with one storey commercial/retail. 4 to 5 would be reasonable

Sad to see that in such an active location

...also not surprised to see GFL on another job.

210 units....it looks like the floors range from 22-29 units/floor

Impressive renderings. Great location beside the Humber River. They could use the retail space - lack of it in the area.

Good infill development. I personally think the original brown brick rendering sits better with the neighboring properties

The angled massing looks sharp but interesting colour mix

The Renderings look great and those are massive townhouses!

Sure, Queen and Spadina. To clarify, I am all for increasing car-free residents, but based on current City of Toronto standards it looks like a difficult ask (see below).

Are we talking about RCMI? That development is in very close proximity to more than 1 major transit route which made it an easier argument.

I agree that the bicycle parking ratio needs to increase, but it's also unrealistic to consider a 0% parking ratio even for a boutique condo. 8-10% is something I think they could fight.

I like the look of the podium with the retention of the Eglinton and Duplex facades One thing I noticed was high potential for soil/gw contamination onsite - 7 areas of potential concern and 74 potentially contaminating activities identified in their ESA. This can seriously delay a projects...

Rendering looks good! Not much else going on in this area.
