Avenues Multiplexes

[rdaner]

This thread is meant for multiplexes going up on streets designated as Avenues. They are usually mixed use and will start trending higher as new zoning is digested.

The first is at 1472 Dundas West while the second is at 1182 Queen East.

I would suggest renaming this as Avenues and Major Streets. Not all major streets are avenues, and we do have as-of-right up to 60 units on major streets now.

Obviously, a 60 unit building will merit its own thread, but it will be interesting to see how many multiplexes above 4 units but below 10 or 12 appear on such streets, and those are projects we could follow here.

So this one adjacent to Bathurst subway station has been under construction for a while but looks close to completion. Likely a retail unit on the main level. Taken 11 August.

 

[rdaner]

Taken 12 August.

Probably a good idea to post address but it's 203 Augusta and in 2007 looked like. They are only adding a floor.

Mmm, Fresco's...

 

[rdaner]

^^Thanks and will add that though only adding a floor this building is quite deep so the new level might contain several units.

212 Christie and though it looks like a townhouse it seems

to have 10 or more units and the space in the front on the main level could easily be used for uses other than residential. Taken 13 August.

Taken 21 August. 975 Dufferin.

Are there going to be 16 units between this and the laneway/garden suite??

 

[rdaner]

710 Landsdowne. This is a duplex that is to have 5 units but I’m confused because the before plans show many units. Maybe an upgrade?

A lot of these additions seem rather cheap and nondescript. Good supply and density, but little of anything else.

Luckily they also seem to be replacing mostly non descript single family houses.

Yes while in most cases the homes being replaced are relatively non descript, it would be nice if a bit of effort was put into material choice. We're rapidly losing our red brick streetscapes to this depressing onslaught of grey and "neutrals".
