From the latest submission it seems like they're going for 16-storey midrise. I would guess that the two tower design had little/no chance of winning at appeal and that the one tower design was less efficient and not tall enough to win out over a quick & easy 16-storey concept. One tower...

What I find interesting about this is that the City-owned site could have been developed as a stand-alone by a private developer. The City might shy away from the conflict with the western neighbour (267) if not assembled, even though there's a reasonable planning argument to be made that it is...

Seems designed for PBR given unit sizes. Could always use more of that!

The treatment to the south and west is bad. Goldman writes the following in the BCP and then doesn't bother showing a tower to the south, because they know they would conflict. They must know they are sterilizing...

Aspen Ridge just picked up 1251 Yonge for $21.5M. If you squeeze all of the setbacks, could be a two tower site. Or 1 tower + midrise quite easily.

The cost delta better have been significant because OneSky was orders of magnitude better than Wawatesi... Bit of a shame really

It appears that 16-18 Romar Crescent and 255 Viewmount Avenue have transacted per Altus

City Hall and Old City Hall view corridors

Setbacks greatly impact other sites, do they not? Even if Green P and western neighbours aren't contemplating tall buildings today, don't see why the City would allow ~16M-20M separation distance conditions there and not protect long-term optionality... Per planning rationale: h) Section 3.2.3...

Even with that it's a challenge - I wish there were more disclosed about CreateTO renegotiated agreements on Wilson Heights and Bloor-Kipling. Hard to tell what's going on behind the scenes.
