3434 Dundas Street West (Runnymede Health Centre, future redevelopment)

[AlbertC]

Runnymede Health Centre own the property with a low-rise commercial structure at 3434 Dundas St W (between Runnymede and Jane), and have submitted a demolition application.

In the letter attached to the application document, they indicate plans to develop a new building in the future. The intended use for the site is a medical clinic.

I hope they build an urban-style building right up to the sidewalk, not another strip plaza like in the suburbs with parking in front. Dundas between Runnymede and Jane Street should evolve into an urban-style street with buildings built right up to the sidewalk to be pedestrian friendly and to create an attractive street wall. Essentially, it should be a contemporary extension of the urban Junction streetscape to the east.

Precisely, and the development going up across the street is setting that tone nicely.

This started at the same time as the expansion of their main facility on Runnymede just south of Dundas.

They should use this empty lot to let the Runnymede Healthcare employees park, considering their parking lot is being dug up right now
