Here's a question, given the condo market is what it is, won't that likely interfere with the timelines being discussed here ? I understand there will be some rentals and affordable units but that would be a long side market rate condos ?

First I've ever heard of https://www.ravengallery.ca/ :) Interesting !

Great post! It got me thinking about the peak of the office market and the potential value that could have been unlocked from the site without any new development. Imagine converting the entire building—or nearly all of it, excluding the basement and parts of the ground floor—into office space...

You're right ! But this is definitely a heritage property

Right so, given it's very likely heritage, and the there would be a lot of shadowing concerns on NPS - I doubt there's potential for a large scale re-development, hence the limited value.

btw there was talk of an even larger playground / adventure area but I believe it isn't funded, does anyone know where that is in relation to the playground they are already building (with the owl/animal structures).

How large is the space in question and are we talking about a single retail outlet or the space will be divided ?

Let me guess, Wallmart ;)

Honestly I wish they'd keep the scalofding as well :) May as well for the future re-paint right ?

Is it just me or are these podiums terribly unimpressive given the location (I'm not even going to commenot the residential towers) ? 😢

I think all of this needs to be funded at the provincial level - the cities opting for the easy solution of just eviction I'm sure are likely to encourage (potentially even pay) to transport those impacted to jurisdictions that are doing more ... not sure how that's sustainable.

Wait are teachers a city level entity in the states ?

I'm not sure, I like it - there's so many external sites keeping up with all of them is a pain. Maybe as suggested just add some context when sharing the link. Sure but so many of the posts here are along the lines of "____ has opened/closed" so not sure why the posted link is overly different.

Does anyone know if the brickworks managed to recover after the massive flood last summer? I visited the site shortly afterward, and the damage was extensive. I hope they've been able to make repairs.

Is that true? I haven’t been to the area in a while, but I thought the number of encampments at Allan Gardens was increasing again after having been significantly reduced. I also hadn’t heard about any changes at Clarence Square. Alright, let me answer my own question. 😊 There’s quite a bit of...

Any thoughts on how Ford's policies toward unhoused encampments on public grounds will play out in Toronto ? Of course it was an offer and I've only seen a few cities take him up on it, really the legality around evictions. While not directly related in anyway there's also the new shelters...

Err, I have a bad feeling I know what will happen with that sheltered space

The new queen west 🤪

How about, it ought to have been a "signature" tower given it was the final one they're building ... :) ...

But why have an interim park at all - were the developer parkland funds directed elsewhere ? I just don't understand why they wouldn't have built the park in it's final form - so it's the city that needs to build it down the road implying we're likely talking about decades ?
