The big behemoth opposite this proposal is the UTSC Detention Centre....cough, excuse me, residence.

Site Plan + (there's additional info there of interest)

Ground Floor Plan:

Layout:

Elevator Ration: 3 elevators to 256 units or 1 elevator per 85 units ** In this case it may be more appropriate to use beds, or a hybrid of the two. 749 beds to 3 elevators is 1 elevator per 250 beds.

There's still enough demand for student housing for such purpose built developments?

EELRT and DSBRT... don't play with our feelings like that!

Since new developments average 1.7 occupants per unit*, 749 beds works out to 440 units which suggests an extra elevator is required.

*I assume 1 occupant per bed...
