Looks like redevelopment of the former post office site in Leslieville, also a bit of parking/loading space to build on.

1075 QUEEN ST E
Ward 30 - Tor & E.York District

Proposed development consisting of a 8 storey mixed use building with 50 dwelling units and 327 square meters of non residential gross floor area at grade. A total of 23 parking spaces are proposed for residents, visitors and commercial. Vehicular access is to be provided from the public lane to the south of the subject site.
 
It would certainly be a boon for the area east of Pape to see a development like this.
 
Along with the upcoming proposing several blocks east, it appears Queen/Leslieville is a rising area for condominium development.

1029 and 1075 Queen Street East - Zoning Amendment Application - Preliminary Report

http://www.toronto.ca/legdocs/mmis/2013/te/bgrd/backgroundfile-60677.pdf

I don't see anything in the zoning amendment which involves reducing bicycle parking, but the front page article says the site will only provide 38 spaces.

The zoning for this site requires:

a minimum of 1.0 bicycle parking spaces for each dwelling unit, allocated as 0.9 "long-term" bicycle parking space per dwelling unit and 0.1 "short-term" bicycle parking space per dwelling unit

So for 50 units, that's 45 long-term (indoor) spaces and 5 visitor spaces.
 
^its got retail.

Are all these proposals across the city a certain theme or something? They are all called "Oben Flats", are around the same scale, and oddly enough are all rentals.
 
I think it's a design concept for the firm. Or less likely, a common branding for the actual apartment buildings.
